I am the second owner of the vehicle, bought it in December 2010 with 20 100 miles. I just serviced it- new timing and oil pump chains, oil change, tire rotation. The engine runs very strong, burns very minimal amount of oil (per the owner's manual it is normal for this turbo car to burn 1qt between oil changes, this one burns less than 1/2qt). The AC is ice cold. The modifications done to the vehicle (prices paid): - Dual intercooler setup ($200) - MPX 3.5" downpipe ($345) - B&G tuned ECU (17.9PSI peak boost, $525) - 50mm Blow off valve (blocked off factory diverter valve, $90) -NGK Iridium spark plugs (2 heat ranges colder, $45) -180*F thermostat - NS1 fuel injectors ($80) - manual boost controller - Stainless steel air filter - Progressive lowering springs (1.8" front, 1.7" rear drop, $90) - 17mm wheel spacers front, 32mm wheel spacers rear ($150) - The MIGYG head unit (replaced the factory 6-disc in-dash CD changer unit, $1100) - Front lower lip $80) - black housing headlights ($120) - Upgraded turbo charge pipe ($75) - carbon fiber wrapped dash bezel, shifter bezel and roof rails - full interior LED lighting - self-dimming rear view mirror - OPTIMA Red Top battery ($200) - BOSCH longer windshield wipers - 20mm bullet antenna -SRT grill and hood badges (TOTAL for prices listed: $3100) Included for free but not installed: High performance clutch with an aluminum flywheel ($800) The car was dynoed at Central Florida Turbo (03/01/2011) on a 13PSI tune and put down 328WHP and 324WTQ. It should have at least 345WHP and 350WTQ with the new 17.9PSI tune (conservative numbers), this translates to 380HP and 390TQ at the crankshaft. The car pulls VERY hard, will occasionally spin the tires even in 3rd gear. The transmission shifts very nicely, the quality of the ride is very impressive- the progressive springs give it a comfortable straight line ride and excellent cornering characteristics when pushed hard. I have always used the factory-recommended 0W40 MOBIL-1 full synthetic oil. The paint is shiny, interior smells like new, everything works as it always did, reliable and fast hot hatch. There are no oil leaks of any sort, no rattles or squeaks. The doors function like new, power windows as well. The sunroof drains are clean and it does not leak inside the car. All 13 KICKER speakers are performing as new, the sound system is very powerful and crisp. As expected from a Florida vehicle, there is absolutely ZERO rust on the car, not a single detail has any rust on it. The bad- there are two exterior dents on the car caused by envious people at shopping plazas- one dent on the driver's side rear door and one on the passenger side quarter panel. Both can be repaired via paint-less dent removal. There are three small cracks on the driver's side seat left bolster. The factory dual mass flywheel chatters at idle, I had the car checked by Airport Dodge of Orlando and they recommended driving it until it shows a defect, 50 000 miles later it is still good, plenty of clutch pedal and its only audible at idle. I am including a slightly used aluminum flywheel/high performance clutch with the car. It can be changed right away, however I do not see a need until the factory clutch shows a defect. The factory wheels have been striped off the clearcoat (it was cracking) and since then they have been polished by hand. Their condition is 9 out of 10 in terms of shine, no curb damage or bending. Tires have about 50% thread life left, no plugs or patches. Everything else on the car is in excellent condition and perfect working order. The car is an absolute blast to drive, I get compliments on it everywhere I bring it. Repairs done to the car since I have owned it are: replaced throttle body at 43k miles, replaced left front strut, wheel bearing and fender (small accident involving the front left wheel ~50k miles, unsure if CARFAX will show this but I am being honest), replaced oil pump at 53k miles, replaced MAP sensor at 53k miles (I broke the original sensor while working on the oil pump replacement). There is no other damages or items that are not as I have already described. I encourage any buyers to come, look at the car, take it for a test drive and even bring it to a shop and get it inspected if desired. My goal is to have a 100% satisfied buyer. I have priced the car at the Kelly Blue Book private party selling price for "very good condition" at $ 12600. My price is firm, all of the modifications and the clutch(worth $3900 new or at least $2000 used) come with the car for free. Please "Buy Now" the vehicle only if you have cash on hand or you are pre- aproved for a car loan on this specific vehicle, I have included the VIN number needed for a car loan application. I will not waste your time and I ask the same of you. No joy rides or tire kickers please. The vehicle currently has a lien and I will work with you to get you the title as soon as possible. |

2013 Dodge Challenger R/T Redline revs into Chicago
Fri, 01 Feb 2013When Dodge released the Challenger Rallye Redline last year, it brought a new dimension of styling to the car's classic muscle car lines, but it was only available in V6 form lacking the oomph to back up its sinister appearance. To remedy that situation, Dodge is unveiling the Challenger R/T Redline, powered by a Hemi V8 engine, at the Chicago Auto Show.
Other than the extra cylinders, most of the R/T's Redline package carries over from the Rallye model including the custom-look 20-inch black chrome wheels with red paint accents, but the R/T version of the package gets more of a retro look to the side stripes with graphite graphics featuring Redline lettering. Cars equipped with the six-speed manual transmission will get a performance-tuned, low-restriction exhaust allowing the engine to produce 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque; cars with the five-speed auto are rated at 372 hp and 400 lb-ft, but they do offer a bright chrome Mopar t-handle shifter and steering wheel paddle shifters.
The R/T Redline Group is offered only on cars painted in Billet Silver, Granite Crystal, Bright White and Pitch Black, and it adds just $1,995 to the MSRP of the Challenger R/T (starting at $31,990) and the Challenger R/T Plus (starting at $33,990), which adds features like Nappa leather and Boston Acoustics speakers.
FCA's shifter fiasco proves novel gear selectors are a bad idea
Tue, Feb 9 2016What's wrong with PRNDL? Why are automakers trying to overly complicate the simple task of selecting gears? If there's any lesson to learn from the recent news that NHTSA is investigating 853,000 Fiat Chrysler vehicles over its problematic gear selectors, it's that the trend of fancy shifters needs to stop. Now. Last year, NHTSA opened an investigation into Jeep Grand Cherokee models, and has now expanded this probe to include the 2012-14 Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger. The problem? The shifter – assembled by ZF – is confusing for many drivers. "Testing ... indicates that operation of the (electronic) shifter is not intuitive and provides poor tactile and visual feedback to the driver, increasing the potential for unintended gear selection," a NHTSA document states. More than 100 crashes and over a dozen injuries are linked to this problem, according to The Detroit Free Press. To us, the problem isn't just limited to FCA. These unnecessarily novel gear selectors are spreading like wildfire across the industry. Honda and Acura use a weird pushbutton setup. Lincolns have buttons on the dashboard. Jaguar's shifter electronically raises out of the center console. Mercedes uses a stalk with up-for-Reverse, down-for-Drive, push-for-Neutral arrangement. And what the hell is BMW thinking with its M cars? FCA has since abandoned the confusing shifters in question. The 300, Charger, and Grand Cherokee now use the rotary shift dial that's quickly proliferating across the company's brands. Simplistic gear selectors might not be sexy, but no one ever complained about not being able to find the right gear in a Hyundai Sonata. What's most interesting is that this NHTSA investigation could push FCA – and possibly other automakers – to redesign vehicle functions that otherwise operate as designed. Just because most people will never have a problem putting a Dodge Charger in Reverse doesn't mean there isn't a flaw with the design. But perhaps a more simplistic solution – good ol' PRNDL – would have prevented these issues from the start.

Coal-rolling Ram dually does tandem beer-shooting burnout with ATV in bed
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Sometimes a video comes around that just makes you shake your head in disbelief. Take for example these guys from Nebraska in their dually diesel flatbed Ram, doing a smoky burnout. Lighting up the tires is nothing new, but these folks take things a step further by having another guy on an ATV in bed that is also smoking the tires. Finally, people are sitting on a couch in the bed taking the whole show in, as beer cans shoot out of the stacks.
There have been several stories recently about the scourge of rolling coal, i.e., diesel trucks modified to lay down a thick, black smoke screen, sometimes for vaguely political reasons. Whatever your opinion is on it, breathing in this much nasty stuff isn't exactly great for your health. Of course, it turns out that burning rubber is pretty awful, too. Both diesel and tire emissions contain cancer-causing Group 1 carcinogens. Combine them with the cigarette smoking here, and these guys are an oncologist's nightmare. Scroll down to take it all in for yourself. Warning, there is a little explicit language.
