This is a 2006 Dodge Magnum SRT8.  The exterior is Maroon and the interior is black leather with gray suede inserts.  The engine is a 6.1 liter Hemi with 425 hp in stock configuration.  It has a 5 speed automatic transmission that was designed and manufactured by Mercedes.  It also has, AC, CD, PW, PDL, PM, cruise control, Homelink garage door opener, power seats, rear storage system and privacy shade, and Brembo brakes.

 

I purchased the car in 2011 with 17k miles on it from the second owner who was a minister in FL.  My father purchased it from me and owned it briefly.  Neither of us used it as a daily driver and only drove the car for pleasure.  It has been extremely well taken care of and never in any salt or snow.  It has never been smoked in.  There are no dents or damage of any kind and the paint has a very deep shine to it.  The interior is new condition and has the original floor mats underneath the weathertech trays.  It was always garaged and washed/waxed frequently by hand, never an automatic car wash.  It runs and rides like a new car and needs nothing.  Everything works 100%.  There are no leaks of any kind at all.

 

Only 93-octane gas was used.  I have used Castrol Syntec Edge 5W-40 Full Synthetic Oil and either Mobil one, K&N, or Wix oil filters every 2-3k miles.  It has been updated with all factory recalls and TSBs.  In the last 7k miles I have done all of the following: I have changed the transmission fluid (actually I did it three times to get all the old fluid out of the torque converter) using Mopar ATF+4 full Synthetic Transmission fluid.  In addition, I changed the cooling by flushing the engine with tap water, then flushing with distilled water, finally I drained the system (including the two engine block drain plugs) and refilled it with the proper Mopar coolant, distilled water (50/50 mix) and the required Mopar coolant additive (per a TSB).  I also flushed the brake fluid with Synthetic Dot 4.  I replaced the power steering fluid and drained and filled the differential with Royal Purple 75w-140 Synthetic Gear Oil.  All of these items were done about 1k miles ago and I did all of these at 17k miles when I bought the car (except brake fluid and PS fluid which I only did this one time).  The rotors were replaced at 24k miles with the updated slotted Mopar rotors F/R (per TSB) and I installed new pads F/R.   The belt was just replaced with a Goodyear Gatorback.  The tires are in excellent condition and are 275/45/20 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 high performance tires with good tread depth.

 

When I purchased the car it was 100% stock.  I completed some minor modifications.  I removed the Hemi badges and body side moldings.  I purchased brand new exact replacement Hemi badges and body side moldings from the dealer.  The body side moldings were professionally painted and are in still new in protective packaging with the original tape ready to install if you wanted to put it back to stock.  These are both included with the car.  I also installed a new Mopar cold air intake system but still have the OEM unit that goes with the car.  I installed an oil catch can to prevent oil ingestion through the intake.  This can be easily removed and put back to stock. I also installed small lids over the headlights that look like the hood and fender to reduce the bulging headlight look.  These can be easily removed if desired.  Lastly, I installed Charger SRT8 wheels.  I think these are much better looking wheels than the Magnum SRT8 wheels.  They are the same size and are forged just like the Magnum SRT8 wheels.   In summary, all the modifications that I performed are minor and the car can be easily put back to stock except I do not have the Magnum wheels.  These wheels are readily available for sale on the internet because many do not like how they look.

 

I am selling my Magnum because I have too many cars and do not have enough time to drive them.  This is a really nice car that has to be seen in person to really appreciate.  I have a lift in the garage at my house for easy inspection of the undercarriage.  I also have the car for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction early if the car sells before the end of auction.  I am located in Knoxville, TN.  Please contact me at 865-278-7063 if you are interested or have any questions.

 The under tray beneath the engine was removed only for taking pictures.  It has been reinstalled and is included with the car.  I also forgot to mention that I have replaced the shift interlock mechanism with a billet aluminum unit that will never fail.

Just to clarify, all of the maintenance mentioned was performed about 7k miles ago.  I accidentally typed 1k miles.  I apologize for the confusion.

SRT back to Dodge, Dart SRT, new Challenger, Charger and Caravan's death outlined in 5-yr plan

Tue, 06 May 2014

The onslaught of news from Fiat Chrysler's layout of five-year plans continued with Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis this morning, including the unexpected announcement that SRT was coming back into the fold.
After just a few years existing as an independent entity within the Fiat Chrysler universe, an unceremonious press release hit in conjunction with today's lineup of announcements, saying "the SRT family of vehicles will be consolidated under the Dodge brand." Group CEO Sergio Marchionne thanked SRT headman Ralph Gilles for his dedication to the high-performance wing, calling out is efforts in expanding the vehicle lineup and including more customized models. He did not reference disappointing SRT Viper sales today, but we sense there's a bit of subtext.
With the SRT reunion at Dodge, it's appropriate that some of the most exciting product announcements for the next five years have to do with upcoming performance products. First out of the gate will be a refresh for that flagging Viper in 2015, which comes as little surprise.

VLF Force 1 V10 is a rebodied Viper priced like a Lamborghini

Tue, Jan 12 2016

It would appear that Henrik Fisker is done with hybrids. His latest project, called the Force 1, packs an oversized V10 engine with no electric assist in sight and all the environmental credentials of a herd of flatulent cattle. Alongside the Karma-based, Corvette-powered Destino, the Force 1 is the second product from VLF Automotive. Fisker has taken partnership in the new firm as chief designer alongside chairman Bob Lutz and CEO Gilbert Villarreal. The company isn't saying explicitly what the Force 1 is based on, but it doesn't take a CSI team to trace its roots back to the Dodge Viper. Never mind that it's being built in Auburn Hills – the same Detroit suburb where Chrysler is headquartered – or that it was jointly developed by Fisker and professional Viper racer and dealer Ben Keating. It also happens to be powered by an 8.4-liter V10, and there aren't many of those kicking around the industry. Instead of the Viper's 645 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque, the Force 1's ten-cylinder engine is optimized to deliver 745 hp and 638 lb-ft. That, according to VLF, is enough to send the coupe rocketing to 60 in 3.0 seconds flat, covering the quarter-mile in under 11 seconds on its way to a top speed of 218 miles per hour. The power is transmitted to the Pirelli PZero rubber through a six-speed manual, but VLF says it will fit it with an automatic at the customer's request. Around that massive engine and two-seat cockpit, Fisker designed a new shape that, for better or for worse, looks way more aggressive than the Viper's. The Force 1's proportions are tellingly super-snake, but the curves are replaced by some very angry-looking angles and vents. Its head- and taillights are ultra thin, and the deep-dish, split-four-spoke wheels seem to visually split the difference between the three-spoke wheels on the original Viper and the five-spoke alloys it wears today. If you doubted the Force 1's origins before, the interior ought to give it away, with its wide tunnel and familiar surfaces. Only VLF has refinished it in leather, suede, and Alcantara, all diamond stitched with contrasting thread to help position this as a more luxurious prospect than the Dodge. It even fit between the seatbacks place for two champagne bottles that we hope nobody would consider consuming before trying to handle that much power. Of course, none of this will come cheap.

Dodge idles Viper production again at Conner Avenue

Mon, 07 Jul 2014

You've got to hand it to Dodge for having the gumption to put the original Viper into production in the first place. It was, after all, much more of an emotional decision than a practical one, and a move which saw the first production V10 engine placed in a road car - long before the advent of the Lamborghini Gallardo, Audi R8, Porsche Carrera GT or Lexus LFA, not to mention the other Ford, BMW and Volkswagen Group models that used such engines.
It's now been 22 years since the first Viper entered production and the Viper still rolls on several generations later, but we're sad to say that courageous decision has not always been met with overwhelming sales success. In fact parent Chrysler was forced to idle the Conner Avenue plant where the Viper is made back in April due to slow sales. And while production resumed again as planned on June 23, it apparently didn't do the trick.
As a result, Chrysler corporate communications chief Shawn Morgan revealed to Autoblog that the assembly line has been shut down again for another two weeks. The line was up and running for nearly two full work weeks from June 23 until the holiday weekend that started on Thursday, July 3. But instead of coming back online today as planned, it's been idled again for the weeks of July 7 and 14. That means it will be July 21, at the earliest, before the serpentine supercars start slithering down the assembly line at Conner Avenue again. Once it does, however, production is set to resume at the same pace it was before the shutdown.
