Getting your hands on a copy of the “Shaker” edition Challenger Dodge debuted at least year’s SEMA Show will be tough.

Yesterday, the company announced that all 2,000 it plans to build this year are spoken for by dealer orders. But the chances of you finding one floating around a showroom are pretty slim with 2,390 dealers in the U.S. that could potentially sell the special edition muscle cars.

As a refresher, the special edition comes with an intake scoop that protrudes from a hole cut in the hood. It moves with the Hemi V8, which is where the name comes from. Chrysler says the MSRP for one of its retro-inspired muscle cars is $36,995 or $37,495 with racing stripes.

The Challenger R/T Shaker is one of several products Chrysler had on display at the SEMA Show. Beside it, the company also revealed its “Scat Pack” stage kits, which will be available for the Charger, Challenger and Dart this Spring.
