You are correct in being concerned about the value of the trade. Right now the dealer can unload it during the summer and may be pricing it accordingly. By waiting until August the value may decline considerably because the dealer will be taking the chance it will sit on their lot over the winter.
You said there was about a 4 or 5K difference in price between the 2016 and 2017 Challenger. The question here is how much is the exterior color worth to you? Keep in mind the early 2017s will more than likely ship on the same 2016 chassis as the late 2016s. My 2015 Challenger was manufactured in August 2014 and has a 2014 F53 chassis.
