On 9/10/14 Dodge sent this to my hellcat dealer. The power sunroof option (GWA) is a Late Availability option for Challenger Hellcat and was opened prematurely in VOIM on September 9th. GWA will be removed from all (stock and sold) Challenger Hellcat orders. Please Contact your sold order customers to inform them that the sunroof is NOT available at this time. We apologize for the inconvenience and greatly appreciate your assistance.

Maybe the body flex would be too much from the torque of the monster motor.

I did ask that same question. I was told if I want to wait till the 2nd run of production I could get it then. I don't feel like waiting as I am sure a lot of people feel the same way.

Was going to order... But a power sunroof is something I realy want .... So I am going to wait and see....it sounds like there are several people interested in this option....hopefully it will be available soon. And we will receive information in regards to availability....and yes I understand the torque issue and body flex problems....

I wanted one and my dealer said I can get after market with warranty following car manufacturer. I am not too concerned about maintaining stock because I am sure I will be making mods once my warranty is up.

I just want to get my Hellcat on the road!

The reason the sunroof orders were pushed back is because they take to much time to install. They want to get some Hellcats out on the roads right now thats it, if you really want the sunroof I would wait and get it.

Makes sense to me. I want them to get my Hellcat to me so I can get it on the road ASAP also. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah but I don't Like waiting. My 08 has the sunroof and I only use it 2-3 times a year so I am going with what I can get the fastest. As long as they don't cut my HP I will be happy.

Funny you folks should mention this! The day that the order banks were authorized by Ma MoPar,,I received a call from my dealer to come down and go thru the order. I asked for all options/upgrades with my order.(Sublime,,8-speed, blacked out hood),,they asked if I wanted the sunroof,,of course I said yes! My dealer coudnt find where the sunroof option was available so we went ahead and placed the order. I would really love the 'roof' but it's not a deal breaker. Maybe I should call the dealer and request it? I was told by the members on this excellent site that I may have to wait because I ordered the interior upgrade? Thanks,,,,,Eddie

Thanks for the info Hellcatdotclub,,,but I am already 'in' for the interior upgrade. Do you know if I can change my order to include the power sunroof? I appreciate the advice,,my dealer is a great place but they aren't really 'into' performance vehicles,,mostly trucks and SUV's and they appeared confused about the order items. The order did go thru though! In 1970 Dodge offered the N-96 Shaker Hood assembly,,,but the vendor ran out during production,,most waited 6 months to get the Shaker,,most opted for the 'raisin bran' hood,(2 scoops),,those that waited were rewarded with this.(My 1970 R/T 440SixPack) Thank You!!

Well my rep and SRT customer service says typically once an order is submitted it cannot be changed unless there are exceptions made like vendor supply issues. Wow you been around a long time!!! That 1970 RT must be schmooth
