Do you like to street race? 

Do you like the feeling of revving your engine at a stop light and squeezing the steering so hard that your knuckles go white? 

How about channeling your inner Paul Walker as you e-brake turn right through the Buckhead on your way to the Ivy... If you're unfamiliar with atlanta, forgive me. 

Well, if that's you this car certainly isn't. This car projects you as a responsible adult. It says you like American muscle but you're also practical and understand that you're far too old to be living your life "one 1/4 mile at a time". This car says you have a great deal of Patriotism and support for the American way, but that you're not about to waste your time, gas or anybody else's safety trying to prove that you're billy bad ass. 

Upon first glance of this quintessential piece of American engineering you'll notice several nice customizations. You'll see a fantastic contrast in the premier metallic paint with the beautiful black rims. They're wrapped in some fancy run flat tire that is supposed to make the car ride smoother and grip the road better. My dad always said to spend money on the things that come between me and the ground... That's why I have immaculate taste shoes, I never skimp on crappy off brand tires, and I have a budget set aside just for sheets that make me sleep like a baby. 

I digress, but the car gets even better when you fall into the driver seat and notice you're not getting beat down by the sun. It's hot as hell in the south but thanks to the UV protecting deep tint and an automatic dual climate controlled environment you'll be cool as the other side of my restoration hardware pillow. Besides worrying about SPF while you're cruising the open road is unAmerican. Thank God that's not an issue here.

Back to interior... Sink right into that perfectly upholstered seat and you'll find there is a certain satisfaction once you turn the key and witness the subtle growl of over 300 ponies. Yes that's right, and those ponies come from a v6 power plant and it's more than capable. You should enjoy knowing that you could dust most of the common cars out on the road but revel more in the fact that you're mature enough not to. It's like the car version of an upscale tuxedo t-shirt. It reads, I have a cool fast car but I'm not dumb enough to wrap it around a light pole. 

See I'm assuming you're secure enough in yourself that you don't need to waste your money for the negligible power gain and decreased efficiency that the V8 brings. You're flooded with testosterone and everyone gets it. If the V6 is an issue I have a question... well really several questions: What are two cylinders going to prove and who are you trying to impress with a less efficient machine? I've got news for you man, chicks dig the smart guy... And driving a V8 with Obama and his gas prices just isn't going to cut it. I'm not pointing fingers, but you don't have truck nuts do you? 

Yeah, this car is plenty fast and it's been meticulously maintained. It's got a perfect title, never been in an accident and it's going to turn as many heads as Kate Upton's Terry Richardson shoot...Do yourself a favor and google it if you haven't already. Okay slight exaggeration, well huge exaggeration. None the less you'll notice as your right foot gets heavy on the gas pedal there is plenty of linear acceleration, angular momentum, g force and whatever else you want to feel. 

You'll also notice that as you see red lights and have to apply the brakes you'll experience what is known as an inertia if you hit them too hard. That my friend is a great thing because that means these brakes are actually in great condition and you wont have to worry about them for quite some time. I don't want to upset you but by being the proud owner of this car you're not going to turn into Jeff Gordan anytime soon. Nascar probably isn't in your cards but this is still a fun ride and a great daily driver. 

Please feel free to make all the nascar noises that you want while you drive... You can even imagine that you're getting your tires changed by a professional pit crew when you goto NTB. By all means use your imagination if that is what you're into. 

Ultimately you have the power. You have power seats, power locks, power windows and plenty of light bodied, all engine, rear wheel drive American power. In terms of buying power you wont really need much. There's no way you'll find a better deal out there for a vehicle with under 30k miles, fresh performance tires, and that has been garaged almost every day of its life. 

If you want to posses something that you can look at in the garage of your condo and feel satisfaction about the choice you made to not drive a prop car from the fast and the furious feel free to contact me for any and all info I neglected to mention. Selling a car is not rocket science so I didn't feel the need to mention any drag coefficients or aerodynamic impacts that the rear spoiler enhances but if you'd like to discuss them over some American beer I'd be happy to entertain. 

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Question of the Day: Most heinous act of badge engineering?

Wed, Dec 30 2015

Badge engineering, in which one company slaps its emblems on another company's product and sells it, has a long history in the automotive industry. When Sears wanted to sell cars, a deal was made with Kaiser-Frazer and the Sears Allstate was born. Iranians wanted new cars in the 1960s, and the Rootes Group was happy to offer Hillman Hunters for sale as Iran Khodro Paykans. Sometimes, though, certain badge-engineered vehicles made sense only in the 26th hour of negotiations between companies. The Suzuki Equator, say, which was a puzzling rebadge job of the Nissan Frontier. How did that happen? My personal favorite what-the-heck-were-they-thinking example of badge engineering is the 1971-1973 Plymouth Cricket. Chrysler Europe, through its ownership of the Rootes Group, was able to ship over Hillman Avanger subcompacts for sale in the US market. This would have made sense... if Chrysler hadn't already been selling rebadged Mitsubishi Colt Galants (as Dodge Colts) and Simca 1100s as (Simca 1204s) in its American showrooms. Few bought the Cricket, despite its cheery ad campaign. So, what's the badge-engineered car you find most confounding?

2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.

2.1 million vehicles recalled again over faulty airbags

Sat, Jan 31 2015

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Honda and Toyota will recall 2.1 million vehicles to fix faulty airbag modules "after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles." These vehicles had all previously been recalled, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that the airbags could still potentially malfunction. This recall will cover Acura MDX, Dodge Viper, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Honda Odyssey, Pontiac Vibe, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix and Toyota Avalon models made in the early 2000s. NHTSA has reportedly received about 40 reports of airbag deployment in such vehicles, even though the vehicle had not been involved in a crash. Roughly one million of these same vehicles, all from Honda and Toyota, are also subject to recalls due to faulty Takata airbag modules, though this particular recall is for "an electronic component manufactured by TRW" that is separate from the actual airbags from Takata. According to NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind: "This is unfortunately a complicated issue for consumers, who may have to return to their dealer more than once. But this is an urgent safety issue, and all consumers with vehicles covered by the previous recalls should have that remedy installed. Even though it's a temporary solution until the new remedy is available, they and their families will be safer if they take the time to learn if their vehicle is covered and follow their manufacturers' instructions. A hassle is much better than a family tragedy." If you're the owner of an affected car, expect to hear more from the official automaker and government channels in short order. In the meantime, we'd suggest getting your car checked and fixed at your local dealer. The official statement and recall information can be found below. Previously Recalled Vehicle Remedies Not Working as Designed; NHTSA Announces Follow up Recall of 2.12 Million Cars and SUVs Saturday, January 31, 2015 Contact: Gordon Trowbridge, 202-366-9550, Public.Affairs@dot.gov WASHINGTON – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced today the recall of more than 2.12 million Acura, Dodge, Jeep, Honda, Pontiac, and Toyota vehicles for a defect that may cause airbags to deploy inadvertently. The recalls will provide vehicle owners with a new remedy after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles.
