I’m listing my Like New, Not Even Broken in yet 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 with only 500 miles!!!  I purchased it new from Gladstone Dodge in Missouri back in July 2013.  I just don’t have the time to enjoy it so I’ve decided to sell it.  I believe this Challenger to be 1 of only 299 Bright White SRT8 Challengers with the 6 speed manual transmission done in 2012.

 

The interior is flawless and even smells new.  I bought some heavy duty custom fit rubber mats that will stay with it to keep the carpet clean.

 

Exterior is almost perfect.  I say almost because there is a small chip near one of the fog lights and another on the passenger side door jam.  The car could use a good buffing or the once over with a clay bar.  When Gladstone Dodge put on the paint protectant (Mopar Master Shield, its awesome stuff) the car wasn’t properly cleaned.  So you can see some dirt under that protectant; from a few feet away you won’t notice anything.  I'm very particular about my cars and try to be as upfront as possible, no surprises here.  My dad purchase a Challenger from the same dealer at the same time and had the same problem; he took a clay bar to it and now the paint feels like glass.

 

All of the books, manuals, CD, window sticker, 2 keys and anything else that might be of interest to the new owner will come with the car.

 

It has the radio controls on the steering wheel, Blu-Tooth, home link, big 20” rims, touch screen and the Sirius subscription runs until August (I think).  It is a stripe delete car.  Massive power from the Hemi, but with the MDS you can still get decent gas mileage for a car with 470 HP!  The performance menu on the trip computer is too cool as it measure 1/4 mile times, 0-60, braking from 60 etc.  The windows were tinted by the dealer.

 

I have the title in hand for a quick and smooth transaction; PRIVATE SELLER.  I require a $500 non-refundable deposit via PayPal or Cash within 24 hours of the close of the auction.  The balance is due in Cash, Certified Funds or Loan Check within 7 days of the close of the auction.  If you don’t have the means to buy the car, don’t bid.  This is not a fire sale by any means and I feel that the car is priced right.  I live about 3 hours NE of Phoenix and there is an airport in Show Low should you want to fly in.  I welcome inspections and will be as accommodating as I can, but will not tolerate joyrides.  If you come to pick up the car and drive home, great!  She’ll be ready to go.  If you decide to ship the car, any costs are yours / buyer responsibility.  I have the Challenger for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction early.  Any questions ask away! 

 

Mileage could change slightly.

 I was doing so research online on production numbers when I first got the Challenger and was finding various info.  So I decided to contact Chrysler directly; I provided my VIN number and was told according to their records there was 299 Challenger SRT8s done in Bright White, Stripe Delete with the manual transmission in 2012.


On Jan-27-14 at 18:06:48 PST, seller added the following information:

I detailed the Challenger today with a clay bar and got a lot of the dirt that was under the clear coat protectant off that the dealer applied.  I'd say I got 90% and what's left it real difficult to see; I'm positive that's what I see (dirt under the protectant) because as I was doing it's like I was wiping off dirty water from the car.  The car looks awesome!!!

This or That: 2005 Dodge Ram SRT-10 vs. 2005 Subaru WRX STI [w/poll]

Thu, May 7 2015

Some cars, due to ultimate desirability, particular rareness, or spectacular performance/prestige eventually become collectible. It's darn near impossible to know which ones will make it into the rarefied stratosphere of collectibility – why is a late 1960s AMC AMX so affordable these days, whereas prices for late '70s Pontiac Trans Ams are soaring? – but there are some useful indicators to keep tabs on. We're not exactly experts on investing, but we do know cars. As such, we've decided to take our non-expertise on one hand, combine it in the other with our knowledge of all things automotive, wad it up, throw it out and ask for your forgiveness. Or something like that. I've challenged Senior Editor Seyth Miersma to choose a car he thinks will become a future collector's item that's not more than 10 years old, and for no more than $25,000. I've done the same, and we vigorously argued for and against each other's picks. I feel good about my choice, but I don't have the best track record in these contests (I've lost three times, won twice, but they've all been pretty close), so, while I'm not going to beg (please vote for me!), I do hope you find my argument convincing. But first, let's hear from Seyth: Miersma: Ten-years old or newer makes this challenging. At that age most vehicles feel like a plain old used car to me, few hit the "classic" button. But the Subaru WRX STI has always been a special car, and the 2005 cutoff year proves to be very attractive for the parameters of our contest. It's rare; with fewer than 5,000 STI models sold that model year. It's probably the best looking WRX STI ever sold in America; narrowly avoiding the dreadful "horse collar" front fascia. And it's got one of the more die-hard car-geek followings out there. For $25,000, you can also still find examples that have reasonable miles, are in good condition, and haven't all been molested by grown-up Initial D wannabes. With the street racers hacking up collectable examples every day, I like my odds for steep appreciation by way of conservation. I couldn't agree more. It really is difficult to predict what cars will catch the eye of collectors, and the WRX STI seems like a pretty good choice. But I think mine is even better, and I can't let him know that I'd love to park just such an STI in my very own garage. And so goes my argument: Korzeniewski: I like your choice as a driver, Seyth. I'm less convinced of its status as a sure-fire collectible.

This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum

Tue, Aug 27 2019

Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles.  The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.

Dodge bringing revamped Challenger, Charger to Big Apple

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

The 2014 New York Auto Show will be a big one for Dodge, as the brand has announced that refreshed versions of the 2015 Challenger and 2015 Charger will debut at the show. This is a particularly big deal for the two-door Challenger which, visually, has remained unchanged since is burst back onto the scene in 2008 and helped reignite the muscle car wars.
As a sort of hint, this announcement was accompanied by the picture you see above - the Super Bee logo in the Challenger's new instrument cluster. According to Dodge, the New York debut of a new "powertrain combination" - possibly with the high-output Hellcat V8 - will leave enthusiasts "abuzz."
As for the Charger, Dodge is promising a full redesign that should be a significant departure from the blunt, angry looks of the current model. At this point, there's no indication that the Challenger's new powertrain could be fitted to the Charger, although considering how mechanically similar these two vehicles have been, it doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility.
