I've decided to sell my 2005 Dodge SRT-4 (no trades). I'm selling the car to focus my efforts on a project car that I'm building to be my daily driver. I'm the original owner of the car, having purchased it new in July 2005, and I still have the original window sticker and owner's manuals, as well as the extra coded ignition key that came with the car. The car has just over 81,600 miles, and is in excellent condition. The paint does have a few spots where it isn't perfect (parts of the hood and trunk, just under the passenger windows - see pictures), which is common with this generation of SRT-4s. The car fires right up, has excellent power, and averages 23 MPG in the city and 28-30 MPG on the highway. With the exception of a K&N air filter and upgraded ignition wires and spark plugs, the engine is (and always has been) completely stock. All oil changes have been made with fully synthetic 5W30, either Mobil 1 or Royal Purple. The only modifications to the car are:
(1) Custom 3" exhaust that was built and installed by Ed Hanson's Muffler Service (Spring Valley)
(2) Vogtland lowering springs (1.6" front and rear)
(3) Kyowa Racing 18" x 7.5" wheels (Kumho Ecsta ASX 225/40r18 tires (est. 70% front/50% rear)
(4) Maddog short-throw shifter (50% throw reduction)
The car is completely smog legal (the exhaust is cat-back). I had it dynoed before I had the exhaust done, and it put 209 HP and 240 lb/ft of torque to the wheels. I've taken the car on some back-country roads, but it has never been raced. I don't get right on it before the car is warmed up, and I always let the turbo cool down before shutting the car off.
The car has a Python 900 pager alarm and a full aftermarket stereo system. The head unit is a Pioneer DEH-P7100BT with XM radio controls, fully integrated Bluetooth capability, and a very convenient steering wheel-mounted wireless remote. The speakers in the doors and rear deck are PHD (http://www.phd.it/welcome_to/index.asp), and the dash speakers and 10" sub are Hertz Audio. An Orion 6002 amp is powering the sub, an Orion 4002 amp is powering the speakers in the doors and the rear deck, and the head unit is powering the dash speakers.
The interior is in mint condition. There are no rips or stains in the seats, the dash is perfect, and there is only minor wear on the steering wheel. The only other issues with the car are that it could use a new windshield (2' crack from top of passenger side - easily driveable but worth replacing), and the sunroof has been acting up a bit. The sunroof opens fine, but is tempermental when closing.
This is a fun and practical car that still gets a lot of compliments. For a reasonable offer on the car, I'll throw in a custom-fit car cover ($250 new) and an Apexi turbo timer ($100-120 new) that I never got around to having installed. PLEASE SEND ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CAR TO THE E-MAIL LISTED ABOVE.

Chrysler minivans under investigation for stalling after fuel refill
Wed, 10 Sep 2014According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, at least one man has reported that his 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan stalled unexpectedly on the highway shortly after being refueled. The unidentified man who contacted NHTSA regarding the issue cited as many as eight similar instances reported by other drivers.
NHTSA has announced that it will launch an inquiry into this issue, which could affect as many as 160,000 minivans from Dodge and Chrysler that were sold in 2007 (or more, if a problem is found that extends to additional models years, we'd assume). As of yet, there's no formal investigation, let alone a recall, on these vans, as the agency is merely determining if further action is needed.
Two months ago, Chrysler recalled nearly 700,000 vehicles, the majority of which were minivans, from the 2008-2010 model years to replace ignition switches after an investigation found that their weak springs and detent positions could fool a driver into thinking the car was in the "Run" position, when it's actually in the "Accessory" position.
Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car is ready to burn rubber at SEMA [w/video]
Wed, 05 Nov 2014The Dodge Charger R/T is all set to rocket down the drag strip in NHRA Funny Car competition with a completely redesigned body debuting at this year's SEMA Show. While only the front decal, side scallops and rear logo really signal this racer as a Charger, that doesn't take away from its promise of hitting absolutely ludicrous speeds.
The engineers' biggest tweak to the body was moving the cockpit further back. This created more clearance under the hood, and the change came with added advantage of giving the driver better visibility out of the car. Composites like Kevlar also helped make the one-piece shell even lighter, while not sacrificing strength.
The new design has already undergone extensive time in the wind tunnel and real-world runs to make sure that none of the changes negatively impacted the aerodynamics. With those tests out of the way, the Charger R/T Funny Car will have the first chance to truly prove itself in NHRA competition at the 2015 Winternationals from February 5-9 at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.
Chrysler patents smarter minivan folding seats
Thu, 02 Jan 2014It's frightening to think of how quickly the mice would have overtaken us if we hadn't stayed one step ahead of them with better mousetraps. We'll never have to worry about that in our relentlessly re-engineered world, though. Case in point: Chrysler has been granted a patent by the US Patent and Trademark Office for an improved design of the already wondrous Stow 'n' Go seating found in the automaker's Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans.
Introduced in 2005, the Stow 'n' Go was improved in 2008, and based on the drawings of this third-generation improvement, the new design appears to allow stowage of the second row of seats without having to move the front-row seats forward as much. It look like it also involves fewer operations and moving parts, with a portion of the seatback being incorporated into the flat floor when the seats are stowed, as opposed to having a completely separate cover.
It's possible that the innovation may appear on the next-generation minivans expected in 2015, but Chrysler isn't commenting on the patent.
