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.

(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.

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

Wed, 29 Oct 2014

Including all-wheel-drive models, there are ten versions of the 2015 Dodge Charger. The tenth variant - better described as the ten-tenths variant and the topmost model - is this Charger SRT Hellcat.
Superficially, you already know what it is: take the massively powerful Hellcat engine that's Frankensteined into the Dodge Challenger and stitch it into the recently facelifted Charger sedan.
Oh, but that would be superficial knowledge indeed. Russ Ruedisueli, vehicle line executive and head engineer for SRT, claims the Charger Hellcat is, "The industry's most irreverent four-door supercar." We looked up the word "irreverent" in the Oxford dictionaries, and it turns out the word doesn't mean "707 horsepower," nor "650 pound-feet of torque" nor "3.7-second 0-60 time, and seats five adults." It does mean, "Showing a lack of respect for people or things that are generally taken seriously."

FCA inline-six rumored to be real, headed for Jeep Wagoneer

Thu, Dec 20 2018

In September, Allpar reported that that clues being dropped at Fiat- Chrysler headquarters, in the carmaker's factories, and on engineer resumes pointed to the development of an inline six-cylinder engine. The site has just proclaimed the rumor is reality, writing that the straight-six, "turbocharged to meet or beat 5.7 Hemi power ratings, with a smoother torque curve, is on the way." The motor's first outing is expected to be either the next-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee, debuting perhaps next year, or the Jeep Wagoneer, debuting in 2020 or 2021. "Tornado" is the purported codename for the power plant said to be just under three liters in displacement, expanding the family begun with the Global Medium Engine 2.0-liter turbo codenamed Hurricane. Engine bay constraints and a long use horizon mean engineers won't simply add two more cylinders to the GME, however. Allpar says the brief is to keep the Tornado GME-T6 — the alphanumeric for "turbocharged six" — no more than three inches longer than the Tigershark 2.4-liter four-cylinder. That means "major design changes" that could include a space-saving head, more closely spaced cylinders, and no cylinder liners. An FCA division called Comau could be called on for its "SmartSpray" plasma lining technology. Allpar muses that the standard version of the engine for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram could get a single twin-scroll turbocharger. Performance trims for Alfa Romeo and Maserati could get different heads and maybe twin turbos, an SRT version might also get both those tweaks. History shows that the Italian versions would make changes to the block, as well. Even so, the Tornado would be less expensive than any Ferrari-supplied V6. A straight-six would put FCA in company with current adopters BMW and Mercedes-Benz, future users like Jaguar, and perhaps Aston Martin. The engine would span the widest range of use cases in the U.S. carmaker's portfolio, though. Potential applications include being a base engine for Ram trucks, serving double duty as a base engine and 5.7-liter Hemi replacement for the Dodge Charger and Challenger, working in the high-end Jeeps, and as a properly hot trim — with Ferrari-designed heads — in the luxury Italian sports cars. The Alfa Romeo Giulia begs for just such motivation to fill the gap between the 280-hp, $42,695 Ti Sport RWD and the 505-hp, $73,700 Giulia Quadrifoglio RWD. And a twin-turbo inline-six in a Maserati Alfieri would stack up nicely with the Germans.

FCA recalls 570,000 SUVs from Jeep and Dodge over fire woes

Sun, Dec 27 2015

Fiat Chrysler US has issued two recalls covering a total of about 570,000 Jeep and Dodge models. The first concerns vanity mirror wiring in the Jeep Grand Cherokee from the 2011 and 2012 model years, and in Dodge Durango units built before September 12, 2012. The automaker recalled almost 900,000 units last year to repair the issue, then faced more issues this year when the fires continued in repaired vehicles. This new recall seeks to resolve the issue, FCA saying that the post-recall fires happened in a tiny percentage of vehicles equipped with a specific wiring package. This recall is for 352,831 total units in the US, another 26,478 in Canada, 13,037 in Mexico, and 84,330 internationally. No injuries or deaths have been reported. FCA says it will inform customers as to when they can schedule a service visit to remedy the issue. The second recall takes aim at 60,107 examples of the Jeep Compass and Patriot from the 2015 model year in the US, plus 5,755 in Canada, 3,351 in Mexico, and 23,995 in other markets. Those models could suffer from an out-of-position clamp on the power steering fluid line. The error could allow fluid to leak, increasing the risk of a fire if the fluid ends up on a hot surface. In the case of a complete loss of fluid, drivers will need to use a lot more effort to steer. The automaker reports no injuries or accidents, and will advise customers when to head to the dealer for service.

Post-service overheating conditions were observed only in vehicles equipped with a certain wiring package. These vehicles were produced before Sept. 2, 2012.Affected are model-year 2011-2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs produced before Sept. 2, 2012. Wiring in the headliners of these vehicles will be secured with a new adhesive.
