I am the second owner of this car. I purchased it in August of '07 from a Dodge dealer in Florida. It had 23K on it. I was working for a large electronics manufacturer at the time and had to carry a large amount of equipment (to show, not delivery) all over 6 states. Trust me, this car can carry a ton of stuff! The mileage is high on the car but, 95% of it is highway mileage. It has always been professionally maintained and adult driven. This is an AMSOIL car and even though my mechanic told me I was wasting my money by doing so, I would have the oil changed every 5000 miles. Needless to say, the engine neither burns or drops oil. The transmission and rear end oil are also AMSOIL. Each tank of fuel was treated with LUCAS fuel treatment.

Original equipment:

  • 3.5L HO (High Output) fuel injected V6
  • Automatic transmission
  • Traction control
  • Heated Leather Seats
  • 8-way Power Driver Seat, 6-Way Power Passenger Seat
  • Power Adjustable Pedals
  • Cruise Control
  • Air Conditioning
  • AM/FM/CD

Added :

  • Pillar mount gauges were added shortly after I bought the car (Voltage/Oil pressure/Water temp). Gauges are multicolor GlowShift.
  • American Racing "Rogue" painted custom wheels. No, not 22's. 17's (same size as original equipment)
  • Magnaflow Performance cat-back SS exhaust system
  • Billet Pistol Grip shift lever
  • Tinted windows
  • Vent Visors
  • SRT8 honeycomb grille inserts 
  • Power Slot Performance brake rotors
  • Hawk Performance HPS (High Performance Street) pads
  • New battery
  • New tires (again, original equipment; Goodyear Integrity) @ 128K miles
  • Current Inspection (11/13)

Things I know to be wrong with the car or issues;

  • The paint on front of the car shows wear from the highway mileage (even though the car has always been kept clean and waxed, Chrysler paint just isn't what it could be!)
  • A stitch is the drivers seat is pulled. It has been like that for a number of years. Since it never spread I never had it repaired (can be seen in picture)
  • Small body damage next to right side tail light. Some very nice person hit it in a parking lot and left. I replaced the taillight.
  • Door ding in passenger door
  • Glowshift water temp gauge stopped working. When the gauges were installed the mechanic kept the original dash mounted temp gauge working and it is operable. These gauges can be purchased for <$50.
  • Indicator lights in drivers side seat heat switch work intermittently. The heat works, just the lights don't sometimes.

The mileage will change before the end of the auction. I plan to take it on a short trip (approximately 200 miles round trip) on Tuesday just to give it a run. Frankly, I wouldn't hesitate to jump in this car and drive across the country. Aside from bringing the car home from Florida, it has made numerous 12 - 14 hour non-stop trips and it has always offered a comfortable ride, and NEVER let me down. This car has always been adult driven (I got it when I was in my 50's) and has never been abused.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Dodge Charger Hellcat and Tesla Model S P85D in Motor Trend Head 2 Head battle

Thu, Apr 30 2015

One has James Bond Mode, Insane Mode, Creep Mode, and, yes, Insane Creep Mode. The other has 707 horsepower and is a heck of a lot cheaper. But which one is the bigger American badass? We figure most people already have strong opinions on the Dodge Charger Hellcat and Tesla Model S P85D, and they aren't likely to be swayed too far in the opposite direction by another person's viewpoint. Still, we think you'll enjoy watching the video above. In it, Autoblog friend and Motor Trend "Head 2 Head" host Jonny Lieberman summons smoke, shares smiles, and spouts spiels about both cars, finally finding one just slightly more badass than the other. Which ridiculously ludicrous American sedan takes top honors? Watch above to find out.

2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.

CEO Sergio Marchionne curses FCA spokesman for emissions cheating denial

Tue, May 15 2018

WASHINGTON — Fiat Chrysler Chief Executive Officer Sergio Marchionne reprimanded the company's top U.S. spokesman for issuing press releases about Fiat's vehicle emissions practices days after Volkswagen's disclosure in September 2015 that the German automaker had used illegal software to evade emissions tests, documents released Monday show. Lawyers suing Fiat Chrysler Automobiles in a securities case filed excerpts of an email from Marchionne to Gualberto Ranieri, then the company's U.S. spokesman, in a filing in federal court in New York criticizing him for saying that the company does not use defeat devices. "Are you out of your goddam mind?" Marchionne wrote in an email on Sept. 22, 2015, adding that Ranieri should be fired and calling his actions "utterly stupid and unconscionable." The company said in a statement on Monday it was "understandable that our CEO would have a forceful response to any employee who would opine on such a significant and complex matter, without the matter having been fully reviewed through its appropriate channels." The statement added that Ranieri's comments came just days after VW's emissions issue became public "and before a comprehensive internal review and discussions with component suppliers was possible." Fiat Chrysler was sued in 2015 along with Marchionne and other executives over claims it defrauded shareholders by overstating its ability to comply with vehicle safety laws. An amended version of the complaint filed in 2017 added claims about its compliance with emissions laws. The shareholders accused the defendants of inflating Fiat Chrysler's share price by hundreds of millions of dollars from October 2014 to October 2015 by downplaying safety concerns. They said the shortcomings materialized in 2015 when the automaker was fined $175 million by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and took a roughly $670 million charge for recalls. Plaintiffs filed the excerpts seeking approval to take up to 40 additional depositions, including Marchionne's. The U.S. Justice Department sued Fiat Chrysler in May 2017, accusing it of illegally using software to bypass emission controls in 104,000 diesel vehicles sold since 2014. Fiat Chrysler has held numerous rounds of settlement talks with the Justice Department and California Air Resources Board to settle the civil suit, including talks as recently as earlier this month. It faces a separate criminal probe into the matter.
