Up for sale is my 2008 Dodge Viper SRT-10 Coupe, with 5667 miles. While I've only owned this Viper since March (2280 miles), I've invested a lot of time, effort and resources into this car. This is my fourth SRT-10 Viper, and was to be the car I held onto for a long time, as witnessed by the extensive modifications listed below. But, sometimes fate steps in and requires a new focus and dedication to family, so my dream Viper build has to be sold just as quickly as I bought it.

This car has a presence! The first thing you'll notice is the custom paint. After owning three previous Vipers, I really wanted something that would stand out from the crowd...even if the crowd is all Vipers! It's 2013 BMW Fire Orange, pulled straight from the Lime Rock Park Edition M3s. It's a true competition orange, lacking any pearl or metallic elements. It's a bold, robust and bright orange that looks incredible in every light. It's also a shade of orange never offered on the 2003-2010 Vipers, so there will be little confusion that you are in a special car! While the car was being repainted, I decided to paint match the factory red brake calipers and red valve covers Fire Orange. I felt that the OEM red would clash with Fire Orange, so I had them colormatched to match perfectly. The valve cover letters were also polished and then clearcoated to ensure easy cleaning and detailing in the future. The brake calipers are the same way, with new black Viper decals to tie it all in. Lastly, I painted the lower section of the rear fascia satin black. This section is normally only painted on the factory striped cars, but I really think it completes the look on the rear even without stripes.

The most important appearance changes you can make to any car are wheels and stance. This Viper has both addressed, and really sets its apart from other Vipers. The wheels are 19x10 and 20x12 Forgestar F14s, finished in their Brushed Titanium finish. The tires are Toyo Proxes T1-R in 275/35R19 and 345/25R20 sizes. I've ran Michelins, Pirellis and Nittos over the years on my previous Vipers, and I really feel like these tires hook up the best on the street. Thankfully, I've never had to drive on them in the rain yet, so I can't comment on that. Hiding in plain sight behind the Forgestars are a set of drilled/slotted brake rotors to help improve the boring look of the stock rotors. I've swapped the factory shocks with BC Racing Coilovers to improve the stance and handling. These coilovers ride terrific, and while it's certainly firmer than stock, it's never jarring or unpredictable. Bringing the ride height down, coupled with the improved aftermarket wheel offsets, really create a dramatic look cruising down the street, or showing off at your local cruise-in.

Ok...now onto the fun stuff! Nearly every single aftermarket and Mopar Performance accessory is already installed on this car! Starting with the Mopar Performance "Venom" Engine Controller, this ECU is a learning unit and will respond and adjust timing and fuel in real time as modifications are installed. In addition to eliminating all potential check engine light issues associated with performance modifications, it improves the drive-by-wire throttle feel and elminates the dreaded skip-shift feature. It also means you won't have to dyno tune the car anytime an additional modification is added. A K&N filter element has been installed, as well as smooth intake tubes that feed into the 2013 Viper Intake Manifold. This intake manifold has been proven to increase horsepower by as much as 25rwhp, as well as dissipate heat much better than the OEM aluminum manifold. Exhausting all this extra air is crucial, so high flow catalytic convertors were installed as well as the most desirable/expensive catback for a Viper, the Corsa 3" system. When you have the side exhaust pipes exiting just a few feet from your ears, drone management is ultra important. The Corsa is the best in the business, and allows you a quiet cabin while cruising and mildly accelerating. With that said, it really starts to scream in the upper RPMs! The weak engine and transmission mounts that tear as early as 10k miles have been replaced with much more rigid mounts from Woodhouse Performance. The last engine related component installed is an underdrive pulley for a few more horsepower.

The remaining appearance modifications are light, as this is usually an area I concentrate on once the other areas are addressed. 15% window tint on the side and rear windows has been installed, as well as Lloyds floor mats and Mopar Accessories Stainless Steel door sill panels. A MGW short shifter has also been installed, which gets rid of that ridiculously tall OEM shifter.

I've just changed the oil within 100 miles (factory SRT Filter and Mobil 1 Oil) and had a four wheel alignment performed. A new battery has been installed, as well as the K&N air filter listed above. It seems minor, but when they cost nearly $100/pair, it's worth mentioning...new wiper blades too!

The car was involved in an accident in October 2013 and sustained passenger side rear damage. Insurance deemed it a total loss (due to deer avoidance) and paid the owner for the car, then sent the car to the insurance auction. It was purchased by a close friend of mine in Mississippi (who rebuilds Vipers), who I then bought it from in March upon repair. It now has a Maryland title and is completely clear and clean without any salvage reference (although eBay is making me list it as such) . Should you need to, it is much easier to secure a loan from most banks and credit unions for the full loan value with a clean title. The damage was so light that the only body parts that were replaced were the passenger side rear fender and the rear fascia. After adjusting the ride height one last time, I had the car realigned last week by my local alignment shop (picture included) and the owner assured me it was absolutely perfect. There was never any inner structure damage to the rear tub, telling of just how light the damage was. It was more of a concrete rail swipe than an actual impact.

This Viper will provide you with many trouble free years and mileage. I bought it with 2280 miles, and have already had it through seven states and three 500+ mile trips up to its current mileage of 5667! While gas mileage isn't the most important aspect of owning a Viper, its worth noting I've gotten 22mpg on a few long distance trips (17mpg average). It's in great shape, sits perfect, and will look incredible from my garage to yours. It's impossible not to smile putting the pedal down on ~640 naturally aspirated horsepower, cruising down the highway with the windows down listening to the Corsa exhaust. It's an absolutely perfect toy car to start with, or add to, your collection.

Dodge Dart pushed toward the grave with simplified lineup

Tue, Apr 12 2016

FCA announced a while back that the Dodge Dart and its Chrysler 200 half-sibling are on the way out due to lack of interest. The 2016 model year will be the Dart's last, and Dodge has just reconfigured the lineup mid-year to lower (relative) pricing and streamline ordering. Streamlined is a nice way of saying there will be fewer choices, with three models (down from five) and limited customization beyond choosing the paint color. The odd thing is that the Dart continues to offer three different engines. And while the prices of the individual models have decreased, the former SE base trim is now gone. That means an early-2016 Dart was available for as little as $17,990, while the late-2016 Dart starts at $18,990. For that sum you get the new base model, the SXT Sport, which replaces the SXT and comes with the 2.0-liter Tigershark four-cylinder (160 horsepower, 148 lb-ft of torque) and a six-speed manual; a six-speed automatic is an available option. Standard equipment includes normal entry-level car stuff, black cloth upholstery, 16-inch wheels, and grille shutters that help improve fuel economy. The SXT Sport can be dressed up with one of three different appearance packages; Chrome adds bright accents to parts including the grille and door handles, Rallye has a black grille and a touring suspension, and the Blacktop package makes pretty much everything on the exterior black and includes a sport-tuned suspension. All three packages come with bigger wheels, too. From there it's on to the new Dart Turbo, for $20,490. It comes with the 1.4-liter turbo four (160 hp, 184 lb-ft of torque) and comes exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission. This is supposed to be the model for enthusiasts, which is how Dodge is selling the switch to manual-only. Ditching the disliked dual-clutch automatic that was previously offered with this engine doesn't hurt. This engine was also used in the former Aero model, as it's the most fuel-efficient in the lineup. The Turbo gets the Rallye appearance stuff and a different hood. At the top is the Dart GT Sport, starting at $21,900. It has the 184-hp, 2.4-liter Tigershark four-cylinder and a choice of six-speed manual or automatic transmission. This is the one with features, including a power driver's seat, the 8.4-inch Uconnect infotainment unit, digital reconfigurable gauges, dual-zone auto climate, keyless start, and a rearview camera. The latter-part-of-2016 Dart will be available in eight colors.

Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013

Sun, 15 Sep 2013

When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.

Ralph Gilles responds to Dodge rumors, says brand is 'here to stay'

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

This is why we love Ralph Gilles. While in Italy hanging out with a group of Viper Club members in Europe, the SRT boss took the time to respond to a question directed at him on Instagram in regards to the future of Dodge.
Recent reports have painted a bleak picture for Dodge, but Gilles defended Chrysler's full-line brand by stating that the rumors are, "all rumors, Dodge is here to stay! It may get more focused going forward but not killed!" The idea of a "more focused" Dodge brand could lend some credibility to reports that the Grand Caravan and Durango are on their way out, which would leave Dodge solely as a car, or car-based, automaker.
