Time to thin out the herd...
Up for sale is my 05 300C 91,7XX miles Clean title in my name Clean Carfax Located in Boise, Idaho 371whp (440 est crank hp) 381 torque 392 Stroker, Callies crank, Carillo rods, Mahle Pistons 550hp half shafts 09 SRT LSD JBL shorty headers Cold air intake Predator tuner Staggered 22" Viper reps Eibach pro-kit lowering springs Tinted windows (nicely done and in good shape) Blacked out tail lights (also nicely done) Cheapo black Bentley grill Black ellipsoid headlights Cross drilled/slotted rotors 265f/295r tires (rears need to be replaced soon, fronts are a little better) Done within the last 500 miles: Paramount Performance stage II transmission, valve body, torque converter ($6K installed) Rated for 650whp. Thermostatically controlled transmission cooler Solo Performance exhaust with SRT8 catalytic converters lengthened to match the JBL headers ($1700) OEM 6-speed motor mounts Coolant tank/cap ITG air filter Z-Auto No ESP circuit installed Just dyno'd so you have a print out of where she sits right now. New OEM rear view mirrors New Yaw sensor New OEM trunk emblem (new, smaller style- not installed but included) All fluids changed New battery $10K+ invested in the last 500miles. About 30K miles on the rest of the mods. The interior is quite nice for its age, but not perfect. 8 or 9 out of 10. Drivers side seat bolster has the typical wear and you will find a few smudges and scuffs here and there. Does not look brand new, but looks much better than your typical 90K mile car. Potential items of concern: The traction control recently went inop. I replaced the Yaw sensor, but that did not fix it. Since most people owning this car would want to disable the traction control anyway, I'm going to pass this issue (or benefit) along to the new owner. The exterior paint condition on the front end and front doors is not good. The paint is good everywhere else excepting minor scuffs here and there. The bumper cover is rock chipped and has a few scrapes. The upper corner of the grill area has some cracks in the paint. I removed the side moldings and you can see some ghosting were they used to be. I was going to re-paint the front end, but figured it would invariably get scratched during transport to its new home, and the new owner might rather do a color change or vinyl wrap, so I'm leaving it as-is and discounting the price accordingly. At parking lot speeds, the suspension creaks a bit. The suspension feels solid with not clunks or rattles otherwise. May just need some strategically placed grease. Everything has been built to the hilt, so if you want to add more power, you have a solid base to work with. Perfect car for street or track fun, but needs some paint to please the show crowd. |

Former Treasury boss unaware auto task force fired GM's Wagoner
Wed, 14 May 2014We dig a good political tell-all every once in a while (how else will we get our political fix while waiting for House of Cards' third season?). Today, we get just that from former Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner's new book, "Stress Test," which details, among other parts of the 2009 financial catastrophe, the structured bankruptcy that allowed Chrysler and General Motors to emerge as competitive players in the auto industry.
In the book, which is nicely recapped by The Detroit News, Geithner discusses the firing of GM CEO Rick Wagoner while explaining how much trust he had in the auto industry task force that executed the move without his knowledge.
Auto Czar Steve Rattner "didn't even consult me before he fired General Motors CEO Rick Wagoner; if anything, that move increased my confidence in Team Auto," Geithner wrote.
Brand new cars are being sold with defective Takata airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016If you just bought a 2016 Audi TT, 2017 Audi R8, 2016–17 Mitsubishi i-MiEV, or 2016 Volkswagen CC, we have some unsettling news for you. A report provided to a US Senate committee that oversees the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and reported on by Automotive News claims these vehicles were sold with defective Takata airbags. And it gets worse. Toyota and FCA are called out in the report for continuing to build vehicles that will need to be recalled down the line for the same issue. That's not all. The report also states that of the airbags that have been replaced already in the Takata recall campaign, 2.1 million will need to eventually be replaced again. They don't have the drying agent that prevents the degradation of the ammonium nitrate, which can lead to explosions that can destroy the airbag housing and propel metal fragments at occupants. So these airbags are out there already. We're not done yet. There's also a stockpile of about 580,000 airbags waiting to be installed in cars coming in to have their defective airbags replaced. These 580k airbags also don't have the drying agent. They'll need to be replaced down the road, too. A new vehicle with a defective Takata airbag should be safe to drive, but that margin of safety decreases with time. If all this has you spinning around in a frustrated, agitated mess, there's a silver lining that is better than it sounds. So take a breath, run your fingers through your hair, and read on. Our best evidence right now demonstrates that defective Takata airbags – those without the drying agent that prevents humidity from degrading the ammonium nitrate propellant – aren't dangerous yet. It takes a long period of time combined with high humidity for them to reach the point where they can rupture their housing and cause serious injury. It's a matter of years, not days. So a new vehicle with a defective Takata airbag should be safe to drive, but that margin of safety decreases with time – and six years seems to be about as early as the degradation happens in the worst possible scenario. All this is small comfort for the millions of people who just realized their brand-new car has a time bomb installed in the wheel or dashboard, or the owners who waited patiently to have their airbags replaced only to discover that the new airbag is probably defective in the same way (although newer and safer!) as the old one.
Could Chrysler leave Michigan for Tennessee?
Tue, 18 Jun 2013Detroit's Big Three could become the Big Two. According to an AP report in The Detroit News, state officials have been lobbying for Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne to select Tennessee as the location for Fiat's joint headquarters with Chrysler Group LLC.
This weekend, Marchionne met with Tennessee governor Bill Haslam at a ceremony celebrating the expansion of a Fiat subsidiary plant in the city of Pulaski. The AP report does not mention any serious talks about headquarters relocation, only that Tennessee officials have been "working me over pretty well," according to Marchionne.
Fiat hopes to complete its merger with the Auburn Hills-based automaker sometime next year, and earlier reports have stated that the company is seeking $10 billion in financing to buy the remaining bits of Chrysler. If the company were to relocate, it would join Nissan and Volkswagen in having major American automotive operations in Tennessee. Of course, that whole "Imported From Detroit" thing would need to go out the window, as well.
