New Berlin, Wisconsin, United States
You are bidding on a 2005 Dodge Neon SRT4,
For those of you viewing this auction that know about the SRT4 the car needs no introduction but, for those of you that may need some info to brush up on the SRT4 Neon I have included some links below so you can get familiar with this model to better understand what they were all about and what made them so special. Before you take the time to view the links let me tell you about this SRT4's story & condition, if I miss anything that you may still be wondering about please feel free to contact me I will answer questions as soon as I see them. 1-920-680-7629 ask for Tony Thanks for viewing my auction and good luck to all bidders!! Condition of this SRT4: For the most part the pictures speak for themselves, this is as new as it gets and honestly as nice as the pictures are, this car is sooo much nicer in person! It has lived the pampered life of a garage queen stored inside of a heated garage covered and only used as a car-show/sunny weather toy. It has been adult owned since new and been maintained as a future collectible vehicle as I believe the SRT4 Neon is the last of its kind... When I say that I don't just mean the last of the 03-05 SRT's I mean the last of the pure driver focused sport compact cars devoid of excess electronic gadgets that have created 3000+ pound tanks out of what used to be a market segment that was all about being lite & nimble. (ok rant complete LOL) This is a accident free vehicle and the paint on this car is all original it's free of dents, dings, scratches and paint chips. This car has NEVER been driver in rain, snow or any other bad weather. All of the trim and weather stripping are in like new condition with ZERO discoloration, cracks or wear. The door sills are scuff free and all of the badges are PERFECT and like new! Inside the car the seats are like new and the carpets have always been covered by heavy-duty all weather floor mats to catch any debris that might otherwise be tracked into the car. The original floor mats have never been used and are included with the car when it sells. The dash, door panels, center-consul and head liner are also in perfect like new condition... That is only part of the WOW factor of the interior, what will really impress is that "New Car Smell" that hits you when you open the door and the airbag warning tag still hanging from the glove box that I have resisted cutting off since owning the car! The engine bay is super clean with no dirt or damage all of the factory markings on the shocks, airbox, fuse cover etc... are original and in place as if the car just rolled off the assemble line! (in the pictures you can see the added Mopar strut tower brace, I will cover the vehicles modifications below.) The trunk of this car is in like new condition the jack and spare tire have never been used and the carpet in the trunk has always been protected by the heavy-duty rubber trunk mat. All 4 wheels on the car are in new condition and free of any curb rash or damage of any kind and the BFG KDW tires are the factory original rubber with no signs of cracking or age to be found. All of the electronics in the car work like new and all of the buttons/switches are void of any wear. The stereo sounds fantastic and accepts multiple CD's, the heat/AC heats quickly and cools quickly, the power windows open & close quickly and the wipers etc work like new. Mechanically the car is as you would guess perfect and functions like new the oil is regularly changed even when not being driven and the engine is regularly started and brought up to operating temp to keep the seals from failing. When in extended storage the fuel is never more than 1/4 tank full and stabil is added to keep the fuel fresh. When in extended storage the battery is also disconnected and put on a batter tender.. The battery in the pictures is a new mopar battery that was recently replaced... I had to learn that one the hard way. LOL! All in all I can't stress enough how nice this car is or how rare it is to see a SRT4 in this condition! These are drivers cars commonly used to autocross, street race, drag race etc... and finding one that has not been abused is getting increasingly difficult. If you are a fan of fast turbocharged sport compact cars and looking for the best of the best this is the one you want!! (IMPORTANT NOTE! 2005 SRT4's have a factory Limited Slip Diff for better traction and they also have increased Horsepower over 2003 SRT4's) (Also included with the sale of the car is all paper work for the car, owners manuals, window sticker, original bill of sale, letters from Dodge to original owner, brochure, receipts for maintenance & Mopar accessories etc... and all the original parts that were replaced with Mopar performance upgrades) Story behind this SRT4's low miles: I'll keep this as short and sweet as I can because I know I have alot of info to read through already... The car was purchased new by a friend of mine as a college graduation gift for his son, my friend at that time was the service manager at the Dodge dealer the car was purchased from. It was prepped special from the dealer with the Mopar performance Strut tower bars front & rear, lowering springs, sway bars, rear end-links, short throw shifter, gauges and BOV. (all modifications are Mopar parts and only Mopar parts installed by certified Dodge technicians) The car was kept at the dealer as it was finished early and was to be a surprise on graduation day. 2 weeks before graduation day my friends son got a letter of acceptance to a very large engineering firm that included with employment a sign on bonus... With that bonus my friends son picked up a used 911 Porsche (his dream car) not knowing that his dad had purchased this SRT4 for him. It sounds bad I know but it actually worked out ok because my friend is kind of a turbo Mopar/Mitsubishi geek from way back (he owned a couple turbo colts, a Conquest TSI, and aOmni GLHS over the years) so he kept the car for himself until finally selling it to me to finish the restoration on one of his British cars and I have been keeping it as a garage queen ever since. Additional Information about Dodge's SRT4 Neon: (see text & links below) Power: SAE 215 hp (2003
model) Power: SAE 230 hp (2004–2005 models) In 2004, the SRT-4
received a power increase, with larger fuel injectors and a recalibrated engine
computer. Manufacturer's specification when the SRT-4 was released was
230 hp. However, several independent tests have produced results indicating
230-238 wheel horse power and 250-262 lb-ft. This would indicate that the SRT-4 produces more
power than the manufacturer claims. The flywheel power is estimated to be around
265-270 hp and around 285-300 lb-ft. Torque: 245
lb·ft @ 3200-4200 rpm (2003 model) 250 lb·ft @ 2400-4400 rpm (2004–2005 models) 0-60 mph time: 5.6s

Chrysler recalls AWD 300, Charger, Ram 1500 over ZF transmission
Tue, 24 Dec 2013What do the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Ram 1500 all have in common? Yes, they're all Chrysler products, and two of them are based on the same platform. And we're sure you could find more similarities between them all, but the common trait we're looking at here is that, while they all come standard in rear-drive form, they're also available with all-wheel drive. And it's the transmission in those models that's the subject of the latest recall notice issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The output shaft on the eight-speed automatic transmission supplied by ZF to Chrysler for the AWD versions of the 300, Charger and Ram 1500 is apparently prone to fracture. That in the end could leave the vehicle without power and could, according to the NHTSA investigation, increase the chance of a crash. The vehicle could also roll away if even if left in Park without the handbrake applied.
That's why Chrysler is calling in 4,194 examples of those three models from the 2013 model year. Dealers will be responsible for inspecting the transmissions and, where necessary, replace the entire unit. See the full recall notice below for all the details.
2015 Dodge Viper price drops $15k for 2015
Mon, 08 Sep 2014We recently saw updated specs and new trims of the 2015 Viper, but it looks like the folks at Dodge were saving the biggest surprise for last. Prices on all levels of the American sports car are seeing an immediate, across-the-board price cut of $15,000; even 2014 models still remaining on dealer lots.
The new MSRP for the 2015 Viper in its base SRT trim now starts at $84,995, and when the TA and GTS come to the lineup later next year, they start at $100,995 and $107,995, respectively. The move seems like a swing for the fences that might help to quell slow sales.
Obviously, current Viper owners might be somewhat peeved that their investment was just re-priced by the company. However, to assuage some of their concerns, Dodge is giving all fifth-gen owners a certificate worth $15,000 towards the purchase of a new one, which comes in addition to the price reduction.
2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven
Wed, Feb 8 2023POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods. However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows. Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS. Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence. Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.
