Dodge Challenger Srt8 - First Year Ed. #5279 / 6400 - Sunroof Navigation Kicker on 2040-cars
Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8
First Year Edition #5279 / 6400 22,751 miles 6.1L Hemi V8 5-speed automatic transmission Navigation Kicker subwoofer Heated seats Sunroof K&N cold air intake Mopar T-Handle shift knob Car cover for winter storage Actual spare tire instead of air compressor / fix-a-flat New tires on rear Why I am Selling I bought this car in New York after my fiancee wrecked her CRD Grand Cherokee last summer. We put a lot of miles on it in the first few months, but I had her Jeep rebuilt and back on the road by September. We garaged this car through winter, and now we don't seem to drive it that much. We are having a hard time justifying the car payment, so it's time to sell it. It needs to belong to someone who is going to drive and enjoy it. Exterior I would rate the exterior an 8/10. It has minor scuffs and scratches that come with cars of this age and mileage. There are two significant scratches of note (see pictures): the first is on the hood at the front edge just right of the striping and is approximately 2"x5", and the second is on the driver's rear view mirror and is approximately 4" long. I have not tried to work these out. The car also has some errant wax on the lower trim. I intended to have it detailed, only to find my detailer has gone out of business. It could use a good wax and buff to make it really shine. Interior I would rate the interior a 9/10. The leather has some creases forming on the outside bolsters on the driver's seat (common for a car of this age and mileage), but I cannot find a rip or tear in any seat or section of the carpet. It has been kept clean the entire time it has been with us. We're in our 30s, we don't smoke, and we don't have kids. Modifications There are two aftermarket parts added by the previous owner: a K&N cold air intake and a Mopar T-handle shifter. All US SRT-8 and R/T Challengers come with a mini air compressor and a fix-a-flat blend for any flat tires because normal spare tires wouldn't clear the massive brakes. I went and got a hub adapter, 18" spare tire, a jack, and the lug wrenches needed to give this car a legitimate spare tire. I still have the mini compressor and I believe I have the Styrofoam insert for the spare tire well, and will gladly include these. I just didn't want the risk of getting stranded with no spare tire. Maintenance We have only used the Mobil 1 0w40 recommended on the oil cap. We have changed the oil when it tells us to. Given the average intervals, it should be due for an oil change any day. I will be sure to change the oil before it sells so any buyer doesn't have to worry about a change oil message on their way home. We also replaced the rear tires with Yokohama Parada Spec-Xs a few months ago. The front tires have about 20% of their tread left and do stick well. I would guess they have about 4-5,000 miles left. Replacements to match the rears can be found at Discount Tire. Accident History We have not had any incidents in the year that we have owned it. A title history check shows there is a minor accident or act of vandalism occurring before we owned it, despite still having a clear title. I cannot speak definitively as it happened in New York to the previous owner, but I cannot find a bad line on the car. Additionally, there was a large spot of stained clear near the fuel filler when I bought the car. It completely buffed out, leading me to believe this was an act of vandalism. Again, I cannot speak definitively, but I encourage you to inspect the car if you can and verify its condition. Shipping I love driving across the US. If you don't and want it delivered for less, we can work out a deal. I can also pick you up at the airport (ABQ) or work with any auto transport service you hire to move the car. I am extremely flexible and will do everything I can to help. Payment As mentioned before, we have a loan on the car. HOWEVER, I have arranged alternate financing to get the title released in the event it sells. I will need 7-10 days to process my funding and get the title released and in hand. I do not require anything beyond the deposit before the transaction to get the title in-hand and ready to transfer. Any payments of the balance must come in the form of cash or a certified check. I have a bank that is available Monday-Saturday, and we can schedule a time to meet there and complete the transaction. Inspections, Questions, etc. If you would like to have the car inspected or you have any questions, please let me know. I am quick to respond to emails, and I will likely load the eBay app on my phone so I can respond even faster during this auction. Please do not hesitate to ask a question or make an offer. The worst I can say is no. Thanks for looking at this ad! Disclaimers I have this vehicle for sale on multiple sites. It is for sale locally, and I reserve the right to cancel the transaction up to 7 days prior. If any cancellation occurs, full notice will be given and any monies exchanged will be returned. This is a used vehicle and comes for sale as-is. There are no warranties expressed or implied with the car. |

Dodge Viper to out-Hell the Hellcat with supercharged V10?
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The Viper wouldn't be the Viper if it wasn't the most powerful model under the Chrysler umbrella. But with the arrival of the Hellcat engine in the Dodge Charger and Challenger, the Viper has fallen behind in the bragging rights department: where the new supercharged V8 produces 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, the naturally aspirated V10 offers "only" 640 hp and 600 lb-ft - gargantuan output figures by almost any other standard, but crucially behind on the SRT power scale. Conner Avenue is going to have to do something about that.
Although the Hellcat's engine reportedly won't fit under the Viper's hood, SRT is now rumored to have another trick up its sleeve: supercharge the existing V10. According to the Pentastar performance enthusiasts at allpar.com, Chrysler has already taken delivery of the first such prototype engines so that it can begin the process of fitting it into an upgraded Viper.
The spooled ten-pot is tipped to produce around 800 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. More than that and the Viper's drivetrain, chassis and bodywork would have to be substantially reworked. Though beefier transmissions are available, fitting them would reportedly set off a domino-game of changes required to handle the added torque. Which may be something Chrysler would be prepared to do for the next-generation model, but in the meantime, 800 hp could prove enough to put the Viper back atop the Mopar performance ladder where it belongs, and give it an edge against the new Corvette Z06 to rekindle sales.
Dodge Grand Caravan to live in fleets through 2017
Mon, Jun 22 2015After a hard-working career of hauling around families for decades, the Dodge Grand Caravan name was set to retire in 2016 under FCA's five-year plan for the US. The decision would have put all of the automaker's focus behind the next-generation Chrysler Town & Country, but that original strategy might have changed. Now, Dodge's minivan may have to work just a few more years before it can finally shuffle off. There are set to be 2016 and 2017 model year examples of the current Grand Caravan, according to an internal FCA production document obtained by Automotive News. This report suggests no changes in the minivan between those two years, and there's no mention of the company's intentions deeper into the future. "While we've announced the Grand Caravan will eventually be the minivan that goes away, we're not going into more detail at this time," a Dodge spokesperson said to AN. For the next Town & Country, production would start in Windsor, Ontario, in late February 2016. This document also suggests a brief run of 2016 Chrysler minivans based on the current model from August 2015 until February 2016. Automotive News speculates that the reprieve for the Grand Caravan could allow that model to focus on fleets and the Canadian market while the new Town and Country gets up and running. The latest generation T&C will reportedly debut at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show and will possibly carry a higher price to befit a vehicle with a more modern platform and improved tech.
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
