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! |

Tempted by the Demon, dealers find way to thwart Dodge, jack up prices
Mon, Jul 24 2017It's the eternal story of short supply, big demand - and car dealers eager to exploit that dynamic, especially when it involves a hot car. A few weeks ago, when Dodge announced that it devised a way to attempt to prevent price-gouging on those 840-horsepower 2018 Dodge Demons, you just knew the dealers would dream up some devilish end-run. And sure enough, despite the manufacturer's best intentions, Demon order slots are being offered with five-figure markups. Here's how things were supposed to work: With a run of just 3,000 cars, Dodge knew it had to do something to address dealer greed, so it announced an allocation system: Cars purchased at or below the $86,090 MSRP would be the first orders filled and delivered. If a dealer sells an allocated Demon for more than sticker, that car goes to the end of the line for production and delivery. Dodge also ensured dealers wouldn't stockpile or hoard Demons by limiting the number of orders a dealer can submit and allocating cars to dealers based on how many Challenger and Charger Hellcats the dealer has sold. But Automotive News reports that some dealers are using intermediaries to auction off their Demon allocations on eBay. Three sellers last week said they were representing dealers in South Carolina, Tennessee and Louisiana, and auctioning off the right to buy a car in one of the priority spots at MSRP. The minimum bid for the right to buy the car at sticker? From $10,000-25,000. And previous transactions on eBay might have run as high as $75,000. So early buyers are definitely paying an upcharge - but it's a thing apart from the bottom line on the order form, where it appears they are paying MSRP. In other words, a scheme that violates the spirit of what FCA tried to do. A source at FCA told Automotive News the automaker was monitoring the practice but could do little to stop it. And the report quoted a Hellcat owner who said his dealership was ignoring Dodge's strictures altogether and offered him a Demon at MSRP plus $60K. But take heart. Not all car dealers are cynically opportunistic - or rather, some see an opportunity for doing good, not making buck. Automotive News says Bill Marsh Chrysler in Traverse City, Mich., plans to sell its single allocated Demon for $1 under MSRP - and is auctioning off the right to buy it, with the dealership's existing customers eligible to bid. The auction's proceeds will benefit four Traverse City charities.
Chrysler readying 20 Moparized vehicles for SEMA
Tue, 08 Oct 2013The Las Vegas Convention Center has plenty of space for aftermarket companies and automakers to show off their wares, and it looks like Chrysler is taking advantage of the spacious floor plan. At next month's SEMA Show, Chrysler will have a full 20 cars from its six brands decked out with Mopar gear.
As a hint of what is to come, Chrysler released a handful of teaser sketches showing glimpses of modified Jeep Cherokee, Ram 1500, Fiat 500L and Chrysler 300 concept vehicles. The automaker will also use the venue to show off a new line of Jeep Performance Parts offered by the all-new Mopar Off-Road Division. In addition to the images, Chrysler also issued a brief press release - posted below - breaking down some of the "industry-first features" that Mopar has offered in recent years.
