A few years ago, I wanted to buy a fun car, like an STI, or Lancer Evolution, but I just didn't want to pay $20k minimum for something decent. That's when I looked into the SRT 4. I found that I could get way less milage, and a way faster car, for THOUSANDS less! I found a rich guy in Florida who purchased the car at 50k miles and had it built into the monster that it is today, then decided to get into building a new truck so he sold the SRT to me. I bought it with 58k miles and drove it up to Virginia. In the past three years I've put on only 13,000 miles. The fact is, I have two kids, want a third, and I want to cash out to pay off some debt. That's the only reason. I will truly be sore for years about selling this car and my son will be mad at me one day when he figures out that I sold out the car that could have been his. The car runs and drives more than great, which brings me to the description of the goods about this car.

CLEAN TITLE. The car was professionally built and tuned to 455 Horsepower to the wheels. This process began with all new, bullet proof internals in the head of the engine to handle the larger amount of boost from the upgraded Borg Warner S256 70mm Turbo. Right now the 455 whp is on a conservative tune of 23 lbs. of boost on pump gas. The car can handle that power like it's nothing because the car was built to handle 30+ lbs. of boost and has a tune option for race gas (The care has never gone there, and I have never wanted to go there...the car is scary fast as it is).

I didn't do the upgrades myself and I can't remember everything that was done. The list below covers most of the upgrades and if you are interested in the part specifics, send me a question and I'll get in touch with the previous owner to find out for you.

Borg Warner S256 70mm Turbo

Big front mount intercooler

Diablo Sport Predator Tune (Comes with handheld computer programmer)

3" Full exhaust system and downpipe with a Magnaflow muffler out to dual 3" pipes.

AGP Wastegate

AGP fuel pressure regulator

Blow off valve that sounds amazing (Can't remember the brand)

Carbon Fiber Hood and Trunk

6k HID headlights AND fog lights

Roll bars welded in

Turbo Timer

Upgraded Fuel Injectors

Short thow shifter

ACT Organic Disc clutch (Rated for over 500 hp and has a very smooth engagement. Not harsh like a puck disc. Nice and smooth, even for daily driving with traffic.)

WOT Box (Allows for shifting while at wide open throttle and maintaining boost - I didn't use this feature, but if you're racing and you have the balls for it, it's there)

Launch Control system (I have never launched the car)

Upgraded Engine internals including Brian Crower 18 cams

Cam gears

Eibach Lowing springs

An air fuel ratio gauge

An Aeroforce Interceptor gauge with dual display ($400) that gives you real time data on anything you want to know like horsepower output, knock retard, transmission temp., etc.

4 inch wide JMB cold air intake with a K&N filter

MSD Spark Plug Wires

Aftermarket taillights

Smaller race battery

Sale includes a straight pipe to replace exhaust with if you're going to race (I've never used it).

There's more that I'm sure I'm missing. Overall, the car has $14,000 in part upgrades resulting in a ridiculously awesome car that will embarrass just about any car you can find on the road.

Now I want to be honest and clear about how this car has been used. It was stock until somewhere after 50k miles when it was professionally built. When completed, the builder took it to the drag strip to test it out. He recorded a quarter mile time of 11.8 seconds. He posted the video on youtube.com which you can watch at this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aleuhPeqRTg.

Two months later, I purchased the car. I'm almost thirty years old. I have never ever ever been to a race track/drag strip with this car, nor have I ever gone out "racing" in it. I have never raced from a dig (starting from being completely stopped). Occasionally, honestly hardly ever given that I usually have kids in the car and there's always traffic, someone on the freeway wants to see what I've got so I'll pull in one gear and then let off. I've seen the dyno screen of the power and I know the car delivers monster power up to 7400 rpms, but I've never past 6500 or so - you'll know why when you drive it. Again, the car was built to handle this kind of power and the best part is, if you treat it nicely as I have, it's going to be an awesome reliable car. I've had no reliablility issues with it at all. When I was buying the car, I was worried about buying a modded car. The builder explained to me that so much had been replaced with stronger, better parts, that I was really getting a more dependable car with a longer life than a stock one. After three years, I can tell you, he was right. The only thing I've had to do mechanically besides maintaing it (I do mobile 1 synthetic oil changes), was change the clutch disc. The funny part about that, was that I changed it because I thought the clutch was slipping at the top end of first and second gear....turns out, I was just spinning my tires =0 So I didn't need the disc replaced, but replaced it is anyway. Now I have the better NT05 tires on and wheel spin is greatly reduced. The car is in excellent mechanical condition and I can think of nothing that needs replacing now, or even in the distant future.

Not everything about the car is show ready, here are some not so good realities about this car:

I have the car Plasti Dipped matte black which I had done by a local guy. He didn't do a great job (there is some texture in the surface), I still like the look, but if you don't like it, you can just peel it off (google plasti dip or youtube it to learn more) and beneath it you have a the factory flame red paint job with carbon fiber hood and trunk. The trunk shows some early signs of clouding in the finish of the carbon fiber.

On the top part of the dash there is a vent that the plastic has broken out of. It's a common problem in the SRT4, and doesn't bother me much and no one seems to notice. You could replace the dash top for about $100 or make your own mesh vent cover or something.

The driver's side seat has some signs of wear that are VERY common in SRT4s, and mine aren't that bad. There is one dime sized tear in the lower part of the seat, and some cracking in the upper right part of the seat. Again, very common in all srt4 seats.

You'll notice in the vehicle history report that there was a front end incident with a parked car. When it was down in Florida, the previous owner was leaving a parking space and thought he had enough turning radius to get by...he didn't and scuffed the bumper. New bumper, no problems, no signs that anything happend at all.

That's all the bads.

The opportunity to own this car is too good to pass up. If you want super car performance but don't have $75,000, this is it! 71k miles is low for SRT-4s and it's going to be a reliable, awesome car for years to come. This one is like no other, you'll be VERY happy with it.

Marchionne may stay with FCA until 2020

Mon, Aug 31 2015

We might get to see Sergio Marchionne and his vast array of sweaters in the auto industry for even longer than expected. The FCA CEO suggested last year that he would retire from the automaker when its current five-year plan was complete in 2018. Now, he has tentatively extended that point out to at least 2020. "I can do this for another five years if you push me, right? Beyond that, I ain't gonna do it, and I don't want to," he said to Automotive News. That would give Marchionne a 16-year career at the top from joining Fiat in 2004 to possibly leaving FCA in 2020. Although, take the CEO's statement with a grain of salt because he has made multiple statements about the timing for his retirement. In 2012, Marchionne said he would only remain in charge until 2015, which is, well, now. Those five years might also go quite quickly because Marchionne is a busy guy with the Ferrari IPO, the attempted merger with General Motors, implementing FCA's five-year plan, and many other projects. He's already considering the next CEO, though. "My purpose in life is to find the Kuniskises of the world, the Manleys, the Biglands, the Palmers," Marchionne said to Automotive News, referencing the heads at Dodge, Jeep, FCA North America, and the company's chief financial officer, respectively. "I told them, 'One of you is going to do what I do one day. I don't know who that is, but one of you is going to do it.'"

Old vs. New: 2014 SRT Viper takes on upgraded 16-year-old Dodge Viper

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

It's easy to play the "Would you rather have a New X or an Old Y with a bunch of upgrades?" game more often than we care to admit, but the crew at Car and Driver have taken bench racing to the next level with their latest video. In it, the magazine pits a brand-new 2014 SRT Viper against a highly modified 1997 Dodge Viper GTS. There are 16 years between the time this particular GTS rolled off the production line and when the new car bowed, but that doesn't mean the old snake's owners have been sitting on their hands.
Thanks to a spate of modifications, the GTS offers up a better power to weight ratio than the new machine, but is that enough to overcome the technological leap forward represented by the 2014 Viper? We won't spoil it for you. You'll just have to check out the full clip below for yourself.

Weekly Recap: New bosses try to jump-start Cadillac and Lincoln

Sat, 26 Jul 2014

Both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
It's ironic that Cadillac and Lincoln got new bosses within days of each other this month. It's also a commentary on the fact both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
