Offering for sale my black SRT-6 hardtop coupe.
42,245 miles (as of January 1, 2014).
It is not my daily driver (DD) so it gets a lot of babying (it gets washed more than it gets driven these days). It gets the cushy spot in my garage to keep it out of the elements. Located just outside of Washington DC in northern Virginia. Asking $16,999 OBO. This is a 400hp car. Minor modifications that do not impact the longevity of the vehicle or its components have easily turned the original 330hp/310lb-ft torque into roughly 400 hp/465lb-ft torque (approx). Modifications include a Eurocharged Performance ECU tune and TCU tune, a Needswings Single CAI, and a Sprintbooster all of which are removable reducing the horsepower down to the stock 330hp. This is also a safe car. Front and side air bags driver and passenger for one. When Chrysler and Mercedes engineers designed it based upon the R170 Mercedes SLK platform they made the body roughly 30% more rigid. In a crash test this car was given 5 stars by NHTSA. On top of that, it can out maneuver anything else on the road and stop on a dime. The car is in great shape for a 2005. I can provide you a scan of the CarFax upon request as of the time I purchased it in late 2011. I am the third owner and have only driven it 7,500 miles during my ownership. I have all of my receipts and records since ownership, including proof of 0w-40 Mobil1 oil changes. Replaced IC Pump around 38K miles with the stock Bosch component. I am not in a bind, not forced to sell, this is completely voluntary so I am going to take a no pressure approach to selling this and expect interested parties to do the same. The reason for selling is that I just got into law school and plan to purchase another vehicle for commuting. Pictures taken January 1, 2014. |

Chrysler recalling 278,222 trucks and SUVs over bad rear axles
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Chrysler 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.
Has Dodge stepped in it again with Scat Pack lawsuit?
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Lawsuits are an unfortunate part of doing business in just about any industry, so the latest complaint filed by a California-based aftermarket firm against Chrysler would seem to be nothing more than business as usual. But this isn't the first time the two companies have sparred over this particular issue.
According to a report from Automotive News, the dispute revolves around the Scat Pack name that Chrysler first offered on the Charger, Coronet, Dart and Super Bee starting in 1968. Scat Enterprises, a manufacturer of crankshafts and other components for Dodges and other vehicles, sued Chrysler for using its name. A few years later the Scat Pack disappeared from the Dodge catalog.
Fast forward to August 2013 when Chrysler applied to register the Scat Pack name anew. The US Patent and Trademark Office turned down Chrysler's application, but the automaker proceeded anyway, unveiling new Scat Packs for the Challenger, Charger and Dart at last year's SEMA show.
What the Chrysler 200 will probably look like in convertible form
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Since 1996, Chrysler has offered a convertible version of its Sebring and 200. As this seems very unlikely to change, it's safe to assume that a new 200 Convertible is in the works following the unveiling of the radically redesigned sedan. What it will look like, though, remains an open question.
Traditionally, the only major styling differences between the Sebring/200 Convertible and the sedan were found above the beltline. It's likely a 2016 200 Convertible would follow a similar philosophy, especially considering the dashing good looks of the redesigned sedan.
Artist Theophilus Chin has a similar idea, as shown in a pair of renderings he's released. Using a few of the stock photos from the 200 Sedan's reveal, Chin has given us our first glimpse of what a 200 Convertible could looks like. It's sharp, retaining the good looks of the sedan. The windshield looks like it's been swept back further, and obviously, there are a pair of doors missing. Other than that, it's the same attractive car that debuted at Detroit.
