Very rare 1980 Dodge Challenger. One owner car with only 49,346 miles! The original owner (who's in her late 80's now) just used this little two door, as grocery getter. It's a fine example of a very low mileage, rust free, California car! Starts right up, runs good, and goes straight as a arrow. The Power 4 wheel Disc brakes stop great, with no pulling. Power Steering doesn't leak or make noise. It's a very simple, economical driver, with a 4 cylinder Mitsubishi engine. Everything works, except the Cruise Control. Probably something simple, but I haven't had time to mess with. I took lots of pictures, and will try to answer all your questions. The hot California sunshine has caused a few cracks to the interior, and blemishes to exterior, here and there. All-in-all, it's pretty nice. Front seats are great, with no holes, tears and feel flexible. Rear seat bottoms (plaid part) do have a few holes, and feel a little brittle. Some of the decorative buckles on the seats are missing. Carpet and headliner are excellent. All glass is great. Windows roll up-and-down with ease. The factory black paint around window trim is starting to deteriorate. The drivers side mirror has a couple of pieces of plastic missing. Looks to be the original spare tire, complete with jack. Trunk is mint! Body is straight, and does not appear to have any repairs. She did have it repainted back in the late 90's, only because the sunshine had faded and baked off some of the paint. She did not want to have the emblems put back on, so I only have one of the original Challenger scripts that were on the fenders and trunk lid. ( I just placed it there for the photo). Has current registration and tags. Have the clear California Title. I work full time, so will only be checking emails in the evening, Pacific Time. There are a couple of You-tube video's playing the 70-80's Dodge commercials of these cars. Found more info on the engine and specs in the eBay parts and accessories literature. Seems that this car was way ahead of it's time when built. Has a Hemi head 4 cylinder that does not use a smog pump! As a car enthusiast, and owner of various 60-70's Mopars over the years, I have tried to describe this car to the best of my knowledge. Car is for sale locally. I reserve the right to end auction at any time. Also, check out the only other one that I could find. It's at Hawaii Craigslist!

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
Dodge Durango to stay classy with Ron Burgundy as spokesperson [w/video]
Sat, 05 Oct 2013The upcoming 2014 Dodge Durango has a lot of things going for it, including its 290-horsepower V6 and 360-hp Hemi V8 engine options, an eight-speed automatic and aggressive looks. And now it will have Ron Burgundy, the fictional television news anchor played by comedian Will Ferrell, as a spokesperson, Adweek reports. He follows in the footsteps of other non-fictional Chrysler brand spokespeople such as Eminem, Clint Eastwood and the late Paul Harvey.
Though the star of 2004's Anchorman and the upcoming Anchorman 2 is wildly popular, we're not sure we see a Dodge spokesperson in Burgundy. (Please, no womanizing or scotchy, scotch, scotch before test test drives). But at this point there's no turning back: Chrysler's chief marketing officer Olivier Francois previewed three ad spots at the Association of National Advertisers (ANA) Masters of Marketing conference in Phoenix on Friday, and says Chrysler has already filmed 68(!) Durango ads with the fictional newsman.
According to Adweek, one of the ads previewed had Burgundy highlighting the SUV's glovebox size, and in another he compared its horsepower to a white horse standing next to him. Will this help Dodge Durango sales improve? We can only wait and see. In the meantime, feel free to share your thoughts in Comments, and check out the trailer for Anchorman 2 below.
Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.
