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.


On Dec-12-13 at 23:41:49 PST, seller added the following information:

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

Watch Jay Leno drive an ex-highway patrol '61 Dodge Polara

Tue, May 17 2016

The latest vehicle to swing by Jay Leno's Garage is a 1961 Dodge Polara. This one was used by the California Highway Patrol half a century ago, ordered specially by the state police instead of the Darts that were usually used by law-enforcement. After sitting out in the sun for a few decades, it recently underwent a comprehensive, ground-up restoration by the historians and craftsmen at the Automobile Club of Southern California. As you can see for yourself, the result of the restoration is really quite stunning. The ACSC apparently spared no expense, bringing the 413-cubic-inch V8 back up to working order, along with the emergency lighting, radio, certified speedometer... the works. In the process they even found the engine cranked out more than the factory quote of 325 horsepower, recording 332 hp and 406 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. The Polara CHP cruiser hadn't even been back out on the freeway since the restoration was finished. But after getting the full run-down from the guys responsible for its resuscitation, Jay wasted little time in bringing it back to its natural habitat.

FCA updates 700k-vehicle recall to replace ignition switches

Mon, Mar 9 2015

FCA US is revising a previously announced recall of 702,578 minivans and SUVs; now specifying that owners replace their ignition switches, rather than just a component. The campaign affects the 2008-2010 Chrysler Town & Country, 2008-2010 Dodge Grand Caravan and 2009-2010 Dodge Journey. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration initially opened an investigation last summer following complaints about the ignition switches in these models. FCA US (then Chrysler Group) responded with a recall of 695,957 examples of these vehicles because the key could appear to be in the "Run" position but not be fully engaged. If it slipped out, and there was an accident, then the airbags might not deploy. The company had initially planned to install a new detent ring to fix the problem. According to the timeline in a NHTSA document (available here as a PDF), the government agency and FCA US continued their research into the problem. The automaker found that the time needed to create a new ring design and updated software would be longer than replacing the whole ignition switch. The company worked with the supplier Marquardt to negotiate an accelerated schedule to manufacture the extra replacement parts. According to NHTSA, the investigation has now been closed because of FCA's recall. Company spokesperson Eric Mayne confirms to Autoblog via email, "No additional vehicles are affected and all affected customers have already been made aware their vehicles are subject to recall." FCA US sent out an initial notification advising owners of the problem in September 2014. The company will now send out a second letter in April and will replace the parts in two phases. Repairs for affected models from the 2008 and 2009 model years will begin in April, and 2010 examples will start being fixed in August. RECALL Subject : Ignition Switch may Turn Off , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: JUN 26, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V373000 Component(s): AIR BAGS , ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Potential Number of Units Affected: 702,578 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY 2008-2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN 2008-2010 DODGE JOURNEY 2009-2010 Details Manufacturer: Chrysler Group LLC SUMMARY: This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, customers should remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key.

2013 Dodge Dart gets all Moparized

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

Last year, Chrysler announced it would be offering more than 150 Mopar parts and accessories on the 2013 Dodge Dart, and we got a look at some of these parts firsthand at the Chicago Auto Show. Showing off all the optional parts at once would surely create a gaudy monstrosity, so Chrysler chose to equip this particular Dart GT with just a handful of Mopar goodies, which still gave the car a nice and tasteful custom look that is available straight from the dealership (and with a full warranty, too).
Decked out in a factory color called Header Orange Clear Coat - also a very appropriate show car hue - this car added exterior styling parts such as the vented, carbon fiber hood, the bolt-on front chin spoiler and a matte black decklid spoiler. Looking inside the car, you'd think the red-accented interior is part of the Mopar parts bin, too, but this is actually what the standard Dart GT cabin will look like when it goes on sale.
