2007 Srt-8 Jeep Grand Cherokee- Powerful, Fast, Many Upgrades!!!!! on 2040-cars

Year:2007 Mileage:79211 Color: paint shows the typical signs of tiny rock chips

I am the original owner of this vehicle. It was my daily driver and toy for 5 years until last year. There are many performance upgrades including Corsa exhaust (deep rumble without drone- THE best exhaust for these vehicles), B. Woody Cold Air Intake, B. Woody Lowering Springs, B.Woody Sway Bar End Links and a custom tune which is included with the Diablosport Preditor. (You are free to select any tune you wish (including the stock factory tune) at any time.) The tires have been upgraded to the massive Vredstiens which are the best tire I have ever had on this vehicle. The rears are 305 and the fronts are 275. I would estimate that the tires have about 65-70% life left on them. 

The vehicle has 73K miles but I have just installed a new engine from a totaled 2007 SRT-8 Charger with 26k miles. I blew the engine while instructing students at Pocono Raceway late in 2012. The car is mechanically sound and blistering fast. In addition to the approximately 450HP the engine produces the huge Brembo Brakes with custom Carbotech Pads can pull this 5000lbs vehicle to a stop startingly fast. With the upgraded suspension it handles well enough for a race track. (The car has seen approximately 7-8 track days). In 2010 this vehicle was featured in the Robin Hood Rally, a reality show which featured high performance street and race cars competing on closed public roads to raise money for charity. While production isn't complete and I am bound by confidentiality agreements, I can tell you that were more 40 drivers of cars such as Porsches, Corvettes and Ferarris  who were shocked at being beat by a Jeep! (But then again this ISN'T your average Jeep). In keeping with the theme of the Robin Hood Rally I will be donating a portion of the sales of this vehicle to CancerCare through eBay's Giving Works. 

This vehicle represents the perfect balance of daily driver and toy. Given the fact that it has been used and enjoyed as a vehicle like this should, the exterior paint shows the typical signs of tiny rock chips, dings and imperfection (mostly on the front end and rocker panels). The paint is still shiny and deep (just buffed and waxed) and the car looks perfect from 10 feet away. The wheels as well have some minor curb rash and discoloration from brake dust as the custom brake pads made by Carbotech for the Robin Hood Rally are very harsh. I will include both the Carbotech track pads plus a brand new set of Hawk HPS Plus street pads (which are more than adequate for daily driving). I believe I have some additional EBC Yellow pads which I will include as well. The interior is in excellent condition and was just shampooed. I will include a fresh set of front mats. The rear mats are perfect as the back seat was hardly used. 

I am selling the vehicle with no reserve and my opening bid is VERY reasonable (just check out others here). In general, this is an extremely FUN, extremely fast and mechanically sound vehicle that should give you many years of fun and turn many heads as its powerful, deep rumble commands attention. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the vehicle will be listed locally and on several of the forums. 

You can inspect the vehicle at my home in North White Plains, NY. Please contact me via eBay's "Ask the Seller a Question" feature.

Stellantis suspends vehicle production in Russia

Tue, Apr 19 2022

MILAN - Stellantis on Tuesday said it was suspending production at its Russian plant due to logistical difficulties and sanctions imposed on Moscow. The world's fourth-largest automaker, which produced and sold the Peugeot, Citro¸n, Opel, Jeep, and Fiat brands in Russia, has just 1% of the country's car market. It runs a van-making plant in Kaluga, around 125 miles (201 kilometres) southeast of Moscow, co-owned with Japanese carmaker Mitsubishi, which halted production at the facility earlier this month. "Given the rapid daily increase in cross sanctions and logistical difficulties, Stellantis has suspended its manufacturing operations in Kaluga to ensure full compliance with all cross sanctions and to protect its employees," Stellantis said in a statement. The plant employs 2,700 people. The company will continue to pay salaries through a local downtime scheme and by using anticipated vacation periods, Stellantis told Reuters. It said it did not know how long the stoppage would last, adding that its priority was its staff and the return of peace. Stellantis had already suspended all exports and imports of vehicles with Russia, following Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, moving production to western Europe. It had also said it was freezing plans for more investments in the country. Van production in Kaluga had remained just for the local market. Scores of foreign companies have announced temporary shutdowns of stores and factories in Russia or said they were leaving the country for good since Russia began what it calls "a special military operation" in Ukraine on Feb. 24. Stellantis Chief Executive Carlos Tavares in late March said the group would have to close the Kaluga plant shortly as it was running out of parts. Separately on Tuesday, General Motors Co said it was extending its suspension of business in Russia due to the conflict and international sanctions. The U.S. automaker, which initially suspended imports into Russia and commercial activity on Feb. 28, said it was laying off most of its 66 employees and providing them with separation packages. GM does not have plants in Russia and only sold about 3,000 vehicles annually there prior to the suspension.

Jeep Cherokee won't get diesel until sales of oil-burning Grand Cherokee improve

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

Okay Jeep fans, you want more diesel options? Time to step up and prove it. The only way Jeep will offer a diesel powerplant in the Cherokee, according to brand head Mike Manley, is if sales of the Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel nearly double.
Currently, about eight percent of the Grand Cherokees sold feature the 3.0-liter, EcoDiesel V6. That's simply not enough to warrant the bringing an oil-burning Cherokee to the US market, despite the vehicle's presence in Europe, where it's sold with a 2.8-liter diesel V6.
"Cherokee is slightly different because of its weight and size. When I think about bringing Cherokee diesel here, I would like to see Grand Cherokee diesel get much higher than eight percent," Manley told Automotive News. "It would have to be in mid-double digits."

Chrysler readying 20 Moparized vehicles for SEMA

Tue, 08 Oct 2013

The 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.
