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.

Chrysler recalling 700k minivans and Dodge Journey for ignition switch woes

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

General Motors isn't the only automaker with ignition switch problems. Chrysler is fighting it too and is now announcing a recall of 695,957 examples worldwide of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2008-2010 model years, plus the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
According to a statement from Chrysler, the models have a bad wireless ignition node detent ring in the ignition switch, making it possible for drivers to appear to have the key in the "Run" position but for the spring not to fully engage. It can then slip back to the "Accessory" position and shut the car off. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering, brake boost and the airbags.
There is some disparity about the number of vehicles affected under this recall. In its statement, Chrysler claims that it covers 525,206 vehicles in the US, 102,892 in Canada, 25,591 in Mexico and 42,268 elsewhere. However, the recall announcement posted by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists an estimated 438,109 vehicles in the US. Chrysler spokesperson Nick Cappa told Autoblog via email that the reasoning for the different figures "will become clear at a later date."

eBay Find of the Day: Viper Defender from '90s TV show

Fri, 24 May 2013

As car lovers, it's always hard to find a good television show with decent cars, but what the 1990s show Viper lacked in acting, scripting and plot, it more than made up for with cool cars. For starters, the lead car was a Dodge Viper RT/10, but, on screen, it was able to morph into its "Defender" mode making it an armored coupe with a full arsenal of weapons.
Fortunately, you don't have to be a fan of the bad show to love its lead car, and if you really want one, a Defender is up for auction right now on eBay. According to the listing, this car is the real deal - not a clone - and it comes with a V8 engine (not sure what happened to the V10?) and plenty of swag and memorbilia. No word on its actual asking price, but with a day left and 42 bids already, the reserve has not been met at $133,400. The listing does add that this same car was listed at Mecum back in 2010, but did not get sold, even with a bid of $270,000.

Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

It's been known by many names: the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Plymouth Voyager, Chrysler Voyager, Lancia Voyager, Volkswagen Routan, Ram Cargo Van... but the bottom line is that Chrysler's minivans have defined the segment for 30 years now. In fact, Chrysler says it has sold 13 million of them since 1983, helped along by the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan that accounted for nearly half of all minivans sold in the United States just last year. So to celebrate this three-decade milestone, the Auburn Hills auto has announced a pair of new special editions.
The 2014 Chrysler Town & Country 30th Anniversary Edition starts the Touring-L trim and includes such special touches as 17-inch wheels, unique badging, available Granite Crystal Pearl paint and an interior decked out in black Alcantara and Nappa leather, piano black trim and all the optional bells and whistles bundled in.
The 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan 30th Anniversary Edition, meanwhile, starts off with either the SE or SXT trims and also upgrades with 17-inch alloys as well as color-keyed mirrors and an interior with silver stitching, piano black trim, power everything, and of course, those special badges.
