I bought this car used in 2001. There was only one previous owner before me, who drove the car for business trips. This previous owner smoked in the car. However, I have now owned it for 13 years, and I did/do not smoke in the car, so the smell should be long gone! Please note that there are some cigarette burns in the seat cushions.
This is a good car that has been very reliable and has lasted me a long time. It has never stalled on me. I am selling this car because I just got a new one. I loved this car, but I don't know anything about fixing to taking care of cars, so an older car is very difficult and expensive for me to maintain. I think the best fit for this car would be someone who works on cars or knows enough about them to do simple repairs on their own. I think it could still be a great car for years to come with the proper care and maintenance that I just can't give. Back around 2005 I had to have the engine completely replaced, so it has a newer engine. The car is definitely getting old, but major systems still work: brakes, transmission, engine, etc. The air conditioner and heater still work great. The power windows and seats work great. So does the interior lighting. Please not that the windshield wipers need repair. They aren't turning on, and it could just be a fuse. I think the fuse in the headlights is blown as well, but the brights are still working just fine. I believe that the right rear shock may need to be replaced because it makes some rattling noises when hitting bumps in the road. Brakes work fine. Power steering is great. It is due for an oil change. There are some cosmetic issues as well - a large dent in the rear bumper, some scrapes and dents around the car. Nothing terrible that has damaged the frame or hinders driving. The car has never (with me, I can't speak to the original owner, but I remember the Carfax looked good) been in an accident. The paint is also oxidizing, and there are some rust marks around the exterior trim. The original radio and cassette player were removed to make room for a store-bought CD player, which is still installed in the car, and you can have. However, the CD player doesn't latch properly anymore, so while it still works, you may want to replace it. As far as mechanical problems, I can only say that the car runs just fine, and it has always been reliable for me. I'm not sure what will need fixing and when, but it is good to go for now. This car is very big and roomy. I've moved several times in this car and I've always been amazed at how much I can fit in it. It accelerates quickly and feels powerful to drive. It is a wide car and it doesn't blow all over the road when it's windy. A very sturdy ride. I just need to sell this car. I know that it isn't worth much, and that's fine. At this point I just need to get it out of my driveway. My registration expired around the time I was getting my new car, so I haven't taken it in for a pre-sell tune up. I also know at that point, I won't make any money on the sale. I didn't use this car as a trade in because I bought a hybrid and my dealership wasn't interested in buying this make and model. I paid the car off back in 2006, and I have the title free and clear. I am willing to sell it to a private buyer or a dealership. I've been very upfront and honest about my knowledge of the car, and I cannot guarantee that there will not be problems with it in the near or distant future. This is its current status. I would caution you to please not buy this car if you either cannot work on it yourself, or are not willing to put some money into it to fix it up - it is 18 years old! |

Junkyard Gem: This 1987 Dodge 600 SE Sedan is suspiciously Benz-ish
Wed, Feb 28 2018The K Platform, introduced for the 1981 model year, saved Chrysler from certain bankruptcy. By 1983, a stretched-out K chassis had been developed; the Chrysler version was the E-Class, while Dodge had the 600. These cars have become all but extinct now, so this '87 600 sedan in a Denver-area wrecking yard is a noteworthy Junkyard Gem. Ford explicitly compared the appearance of the late-1970s Granada to that of the Mercedes-Benz W123 in their advertising, and so the ground was broken for Chrysler to make the allusions to Stuttgart machinery even more obvious a few years later. The name of the Chrysler E-Class was about as subtle as a tire iron blow to the kidneys, and the badging on its Dodge 600 sibling left little to the imagination. 600s came from the factory with several variations of the Chrysler 2.2/2.5 engine, as well as the Mitsubishi "Hemi 2.6" four-cylinder. This car has the 2.5 Chrysler engine, rated at 97 horsepower. Base price was $10,553, about $23,500 in 2017 dollars (the cheapest new Mercedes-Benz E-Class cost $38,600 in 1987, so there wasn't much customer overlap between the two cars). The 600s weren't bad cars for the price, though the build quality wasn't quite up to Mercedes-Benz standards. You'll find this thumbtack treatment on most K-Car headliners that still drive today. The interior is all tan and brown, with plenty of tough industro-velour upholstery and not-so-convincing artificial wood. Aluminum-faced home audio equipment was all the rage during the 1980s, and the trend spread to automotive controls. No cassette in this car, but at least it had AM and FM radio (even plain old mono AM radios were still expensive options on many cars as late as 1987, so the standard AM/FM stereo rig in the 600 was an attractive deal).

Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad
Fri, 18 Apr 2014This is a cool ad. Dodge, which is celebrating its centennial this year, recruited some of its peers to see what you should and shouldn't do in life. Of course, some are obvious - don't complain, learn from your mistakes and live for now.
Then again, some are less obvious. Some, actually, are downright awesome. Towards the end, each piece of advice is interspersed with clips of Dodge's redesigned Challenger smoking its tires. Really, this ad feels like it'd be worthy of a Super Bowl spot. This commercial's personal nature is really in keeping with some of the big game's most interesting ads, like the Imported From Detroit commercial, the Farmer ad and Maserati's surprise clip from this year's game.
Take a look below and let us know what you think.
All hail the Hellephant, Mopar's 1,000-horsepower crate engine
Wed, Oct 31 2018It's shocking to say this, but the all-powerful Dodge Demon looks weak now that Mopar has unleashed the Hellephant. This crate motor makes 1,000 horsepower and 950 pound-feet of torque, and its name is a combination of the nickname for the old 426-cubic-inch Hemi V8 and, obviously, the Hellcat. This monster is a 426-cubic-inch version of the current third-generation Hemi V8 topped by a supercharger similar to what the Hellcat line packs. Everything is cranked up to — or perhaps, past — 11. The engine block is made of aluminum and weighs 100 pounds less than the equivalent iron block. All of the internals are forged. The stroke and bore have been increased. The supercharger produces 15 pounds of boost and displaces 3 liters; more than the 2.7-liter blower on the Demon and the 2.4-liter blower on the Hellcat. And as big and powerful as it is, it will still rev to 7,000 rpm. It's a thoroughly monstrous motor, but shockingly, it won't be that difficult to live with. For one thing, Mopar will offer a complete kit to get the engine up and running, including an engine computer, wiring harness and drive-by-wire throttle. It also runs on 93-octane pump gas. That's especially amazing considering the Demon engine "only" makes 840 horsepower, and that's on race gas with 100+ octane fuel. It also has us wondering what the Hellephant could make on racing fuel. The Mopar folks did say that there's room to add more power. Pricing wasn't announced for the Hellephant engine. The Hellcat crate engine retails at $19,350 directly from Mopar, so it's safe to assume that the Hellephant will go for more. The installation kit with the computer and harness will be an extra charge of likely over $2,000, based on the Hellcat kit. The engine and the kit will be available in the first quarter of 2019.
