The car currently has 73, xxx miles, it is daily driven. I am the second owner of the vehicle, bought it in December 2010 with 20 100 miles. I just serviced it- new timing and oil pump chains, oil change, tire rotation. The engine runs very strong, burns very minimal amount of oil (per the owner's manual it is normal for this turbo car to burn 1qt between oil changes, this one burns less than 1/2qt). The AC is ice cold.

- BOSCH longer windshield wipers
- 20mm bullet antenna
-SRT grill and hood badges
(TOTAL for prices listed: $3100)

Included for free but not installed: High performance clutch with an aluminum flywheel ($800)

The car was dynoed at Central Florida Turbo (03/01/2011) on a 13PSI tune and put down 328WHP and 324WTQ. It should have at least 345WHP and 350WTQ with the new 17.9PSI tune (conservative numbers), this translates to 380HP and 390TQ at the crankshaft. The car pulls VERY hard, will occasionally spin the tires even in 3rd gear. The transmission shifts very nicely, the quality of the ride is very impressive- the progressive springs give it a comfortable straight line ride and excellent cornering characteristics when pushed hard. I have always used the factory-recommended 0W40 MOBIL-1 full synthetic oil. The paint is shiny, interior smells like new, everything works as it always did, reliable and fast hot hatch. There are no oil leaks of any sort, no rattles or squeaks. The doors function like new, power windows as well. The sunroof drains are clean and it does not leak inside the car. All 13 KICKER speakers are performing as new, the sound system is very powerful and crisp. As expected from a Florida vehicle, there is absolutely ZERO rust on the car, not a single detail has any rust on it.

The bad- there are two exterior dents on the car caused by envious people at shopping plazas- one dent on the driver's side rear door and one on the passenger side quarter panel. Both can be repaired via paint-less dent removal. There are three small cracks on the driver's side seat left bolster. The factory dual mass flywheel chatters at idle, I had the car checked by Airport Dodge of Orlando and they recommended driving it until it shows a defect, 50 000 miles later it is still good, plenty of clutch pedal and its only audible at idle. I am including a slightly used aluminum flywheel/high performance clutch with the car. It can be changed right away, however I do not see a need until the factory clutch shows a defect. The factory wheels have been striped off the clearcoat (it was cracking) and since then they have been polished by hand. Their condition is 9 out of 10 in terms of shine, no curb damage or bending. Tires have about 50% thread life left, no plugs or patches. Everything else on the car is in excellent condition and perfect working order. The car is an absolute blast to drive, I get compliments on it everywhere I bring it.

Repairs done to the car since I have owned it are: replaced throttle body at 43k miles, replaced left front strut, wheel bearing and fender (small accident involving the front left wheel ~50k miles, unsure if CARFAX will show this but I am being honest), replaced oil pump at 53k miles, replaced MAP sensor at 53k miles (I broke the original sensor while working on the oil pump replacement). There is no other damages or items that are not as I have already described. I encourage any buyers to come, look at the car, take it for a test drive and even bring it to a shop and get it inspected if desired. My goal is to have a 100% satisfied buyer.

I have priced the car at the Kelly Blue Book private party selling price for "very good condition" at $ 12600. My price is firm, all of the modifications and the clutch(worth $3900 new or at least $2000 used) come with the car for free.

Please "Buy Now" the vehicle only if you have cash on hand or you are pre- aproved for a car loan on this specific vehicle, I have included the VIN number needed for a car loan application. I will not waste your time and I ask the same of you. No joy rides or tire kickers please. The vehicle currently has a lien and I will work with you to get you the title as soon as possible.

Chrysler recalling 278,222 trucks and SUVs over bad rear axles

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall of 278,222 light trucks and sport utility vehicles here in the United States. The reason: bad rear axles. Specifically, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear axle pinion nut may lack a necessary adhesive patch, which could cause the nut to loosen. If this happens, the axle can lock up, which could cause all sorts of havoc on the road.
This is an expansion of the rear axle recall announced in October of last year, where 44,300 Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota models were being called in. At that time, 12 accidents had been reported due to the faulty axle pinion nut.
Affected vehicles include Ram 1500 trucks from the 2009 to 2012 model years, Dodge Dakota models from the 2009 to 2011 model years, and both the Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUV twins, both from the 2009 model year only.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat ringtone revs up [w/video]

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

The best (or worst, depending on your views) thing about smartphones is that you're able to carry lots, and lots of useful stuff around in your pocket. That means you can always have a phone, messaging service, email, flashlight, calculator, dictionary, encyclopedia, and literally thousands of other things on your person at all times. Now, we can add one more thing for you to carry about in your little slab of aluminum, glass and plastic - a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
Now, you obviously can't carry around a 707-horsepower muscle car around in your pocket. That'd be ridiculous, impractical and uncomfortable. You can, however, carry around the noise made by said muscle car's 6.2-liter, supercharged Hemi V8, thanks to a new, free-to-download ringtone from the folks at Dodge and SRT.
We can't embed the ringtone here, so if you'd like to hear exactly how it'll sound when your phone goes off, you'll need to head over to the SRT Hellcat's page. If that's more trouble than it's worth, the same ringtone was attached to a tiny speaker on the press kit for the mighty Challenger, and was captured on video by our own Seyth Miersma (don't worry, he's already been soundly dressed down for shooting a video in portrait mode).

Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
