2009 Dodge Challenger R/t Classic B-5 Blue on 2040-cars
Harlingen, Texas, United States
In 2009, Dodge offered a "Challenger R/T Classic" model to celebrate the re-release of their iconic musclecar. The R/T Classic included 20" chrome retro-style wheels, a retro R/T Side Stripe, retro Script badging, and a limited number were available in B5 Blue, just like they were in 1970. Dodge manufactured a total of 31,500 Challengers in 2009 before Chrysler halted production due to the economy. Only 759 Challengers were produced in B5 Blue that year, and only 523 of those were the R/T Classic. That's just 1.66% of production. After their financing was secured and their marriage to Fiat was arranged, a few more Challengers may have rolled off the line, but it is believed that none of these were B5 Blue as their production run had already ended. Of the 523 B5 Blue R/T Classics produced, 244 came with manual transmissions (this one) and 279 came with automatics. These cars aren't numbered like Dodge's other "Limited Edition" cars such as the Charger Daytona (of which thousands are produced). These are "Sleeper Collectibles". Very limited production insures long-term desirability, and this is a 1-in-244 car. And it's highly-optioned to boot. There's even an "Easter Egg" in the The standard features on this R/T Classic are:
In addition, this car was manufactured with the following options: B5 Blue Customer Preferred Package 27M ($3,460)
Interior Appearance Group by MOPAR $565 Premium Floor Mats with Logo by MOPAR Car Cover by MOPAR Bright door sill guards by MOPAR Electronic Convenience Group ($1,260)
6-Speed manual transmission ($995) Track Pak 3.73 Axle Ratio Anti-spin differential rear axle Bright accelerator, brake and clutch pedals Hill start assist AM/FM/CD/DVD/HDD/MP3 ($535)
Compact spare tire ($100) Low-mileage, and the best upgrades are included on this car. The Challenger has a SMS 296 Supercharger that was installed at Hennessey in February of 2010. The front license plate holes are untapped. The windows aren't even tinted. The oil has been changed every 3000 miles. Since purchased, this car has been garage kept under the original car cover. It has only ever been hand-washed, top-to-bottom, since I've owned it. I purchased this car "new" with 3 miles on it. 2000 miles are break-in highway from dealership to my house, to Hennessey and back for the supercharger installation.
A 90 milimeter throttle body and Hop Not kit were installed in 2010. The SMS 296 supercharger cost $7,500 in 2009 and the installation was another $3,169. I added the 85 mm pulley ($600) to get the boost to over 6 psi. The new dyno run showed 502 rear rear horse power vs the 456 from Hennesey with just the supercharger back in February 2010. Please feel to email with any questions you have.
Thanks,
Chris

2021 L.A. Auto Show roundup | All the reveals, reviews, pictures
Thu, Nov 18 2021The L.A. Auto Show took place this week for the first time since the onset of the pandemic. It was a show packed with news and reveals, which hasn't really been the case with other shows we've seen this year, and Autoblog was on the floor covering every minute of it. Well, Riswick and Stocksdale were, anyway. The rest of us were sitting at home in our sweatpants, but hey, we'll take credit anyway. Let's get to it. Hyundai Seven Concept This is the Hyundai Seven Concept, and it’s meant to act as a preview for an incoming electric SUV for the Ioniq brand. It leans more toward the concept side of the spectrum than a production car, but expect the final SUV to take design cues from the Seven Concept. Kia Concept EV9 The Hyundai Seven counterpart isn't the only big, bold electric SUV at L.A. this year. Kia has its own take, and it's a modernized version of the traditional boxy utility vehicle called the Concept EV9. It also previews one of the next production electric cars for the brand, which should look right at home next to things like the Telluride. 2023 Kia Sportage HEV As promised, the 2023 Kia Sportage HEV has been revealed. The hybrid powertrain makes the compact SUV the most powerful version available, and it goes on sale next year. The engine is a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder paired with a 44-kW electric motor. Total output is 226 horsepower. The company didn't give a torque number, but it should basically be the same as the Sorento HEV that has the same basic powertrain: 258 pound-feet. Those numbers are a healthy step up from the 187 horsepower of the base 2.5-liter engine. 2022 Range Rover If you noticed how extra smooth and suave the new Range Rover looked during its recent reveal, Autoblog's James Riswick got a design tour that revealed some of the technological secrets to its success. "Less is more" is harder to achieve than it looks. Fisker Ocean Fisker has brought the new Ocean EV to the L.A. Auto Show, with a public preview at Manhattan Beach and a presence at the show itself. You can watch the public show reveal above, and see more shots from the show floor below. Fisker says the Ocean will start at $37,499 before incentives. That entry model would be the Sport trim with a single, 275-horsepower motor driving the front wheels and 250 miles of estimated range. It also has a 0-60 time of 6.9 seconds. 2023 Toyota bZ4X This is the 2023 Toyota bZ4X, due to hit U.S.
Baby Ford Ranger and electrified Dodge Challenger? | Autoblog Podcast #569

They address a couple interesting news topics, including an upcoming Ford pickup that's smaller than the Ranger, as well as a future electrified Dodge Challenger. They also opine about the new Honda Urban EV prototype that's scheduled to debut at the Geneva Motor Show. Then they talk about the cars they've been driving, including the new Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid, Volvo V60 and Audi A6.

Dodge Viper GTS-R goes back to old-school livery
Fri, 20 Jun 2014The Dodge Viper may have been around now for over 20 years, but as far as racing achievements go, 2000 was its finest season. That's when it won the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the GTS class trophy at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and its second consecutive title in the American Le Mans Series.
Since then, SRT Motorsports hasn't quite had the same success, withdrawing from Le Mans this year and shedding the Dodge name and its emblematic red and white livery for the SRT badge and a silver snakeskin theme. But now that the Viper is back under the Dodge banner, so too is the racing team returning to its classic livery.
Starting from the six-hour race at Watkins Glen next week, both the No. 91 and No. 93 Viper GTS-Rs will wear the red base color with twin white racing stripes that its more accomplished forebears wore on circuits around the world. And with it, maybe the Viper will return once again to the winner's circle at home and abroad.
