Filed under: Coupes , Sports/GTs , Auction Action , Dodge We've seen the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 in Orange, Black and Silver now, but the most sought after color for the car's first model year will undoubtedly be Blue, or rather B5 Blue if you want to get technical. That's the color that adorns Challenger #43 , a rolling tribute to Richard Petty that is currently up for auction on eBay Motors until Friday, February 22nd.

The winning bidder also gets two VIP passes to the Dodge Challenger 500 NASCAR race later this year. All proceeds from the sale will benefit notMYkid, an organization dedicated to understanding youth behavioral...
