I’m listing my Like New, Not Even Broken in yet 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 with only 500 miles!!!  I purchased it new from Gladstone Dodge in Missouri back in July 2013.  I just don’t have the time to enjoy it so I’ve decided to sell it.  I believe this Challenger to be 1 of only 299 Bright White SRT8 Challengers with the 6 speed manual transmission done in 2012.

 

The interior is flawless and even smells new.  I bought some heavy duty custom fit rubber mats that will stay with it to keep the carpet clean.

 

Exterior is almost perfect.  I say almost because there is a small chip near one of the fog lights and another on the passenger side door jam.  The car could use a good buffing or the once over with a clay bar.  When Gladstone Dodge put on the paint protectant (Mopar Master Shield, its awesome stuff) the car wasn’t properly cleaned.  So you can see some dirt under that protectant; from a few feet away you won’t notice anything.  I'm very particular about my cars and try to be as upfront as possible, no surprises here.  My dad purchase a Challenger from the same dealer at the same time and had the same problem; he took a clay bar to it and now the paint feels like glass.

 

All of the books, manuals, CD, window sticker, 2 keys and anything else that might be of interest to the new owner will come with the car.

 

It has the radio controls on the steering wheel, Blu-Tooth, home link, big 20” rims, touch screen and the Sirius subscription runs until August (I think).  It is a stripe delete car.  Massive power from the Hemi, but with the MDS you can still get decent gas mileage for a car with 470 HP!  The performance menu on the trip computer is too cool as it measure 1/4 mile times, 0-60, braking from 60 etc.  The windows were tinted by the dealer.

 

I have the title in hand for a quick and smooth transaction; PRIVATE SELLER.  I require a $500 non-refundable deposit via PayPal or Cash within 24 hours of the close of the auction.  The balance is due in Cash, Certified Funds or Loan Check within 7 days of the close of the auction.  If you don’t have the means to buy the car, don’t bid.  This is not a fire sale by any means and I feel that the car is priced right.  I live about 3 hours NE of Phoenix and there is an airport in Show Low should you want to fly in.  I welcome inspections and will be as accommodating as I can, but will not tolerate joyrides.  If you come to pick up the car and drive home, great!  She’ll be ready to go.  If you decide to ship the car, any costs are yours / buyer responsibility.  I have the Challenger for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction early.  Any questions ask away! 

 

Mileage could change slightly.

 I was doing so research online on production numbers when I first got the Challenger and was finding various info.  So I decided to contact Chrysler directly; I provided my VIN number and was told according to their records there was 299 Challenger SRT8s done in Bright White, Stripe Delete with the manual transmission in 2012.


On Jan-27-14 at 18:06:48 PST, seller added the following information:

I detailed the Challenger today with a clay bar and got a lot of the dirt that was under the clear coat protectant off that the dealer applied.  I'd say I got 90% and what's left it real difficult to see; I'm positive that's what I see (dirt under the protectant) because as I was doing it's like I was wiping off dirty water from the car.  The car looks awesome!!!

China own a Detroit automaker? Would the U.S. let that happen?

Tue, Aug 15 2017

The news that several Chinese automakers want to buy Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, and that one has even made an offer, elicits some mixed feelings. On one hand, as some have pointed out, it could be a win-win both for China and for FCA's American workers, ensuring the company's survival and opening new markets. On the other hand, this is China, whose trade relationship with the U.S. is the source of considerable scrutiny from the Trump administration — and whose not-a-friend, not-an-enemy status is particularly difficult to gauge right now during heightened tensions with its client state North Korea. So would such a deal pass regulatory muster? One reason that springs to mind for blocking any sale has to do with national security. Chrysler's role as a military supplier dates back to Dodge trucks used by Gen. Blackjack Pershing to chase Pancho Villa in Mexico, and shortly thereafter by American forces in World War I. The Detroit Three automakers were, of course, mainstays of the Arsenal of Democracy of World War II. Even before U.S. entry into the war in December 1941, America's industrial machinery went into overdrive, and Chrysler was one of the biggest cogs. It engineered and built the M3, Sherman and Pershing tanks and trucks for Gen. George Patton's Redball Express. It helped develop a radar-guided antiaircraft gun that knocked German bombers and V1 rockets out of the sky — on one day, shooting down 97 of 101 V1s headed for London. On D-Day, the radar system helped thwart Luftwaffe counterattacks on the beaches of Normandy, and it later helped Allied forces break out at the Battle of the Bulge. Chrysler redesigned the Wright Cyclone engines used by the Boeing B-29 Superfortress, the plane that firebombed Tokyo and dropped the atomic bombs that ended the war. Chrysler even played a secret role refining uranium in Oak Ridge, Tenn., that was used in the Hiroshima bomb and in the ensuing Cold War arms race. It worked on military missiles and was NASA's prime contractor for the Saturn V rocket that put men on the moon. More recently, Chrysler produced the M1 Abrams tank. And of course Chrysler is the keeper of the flame for Jeep, a 75-plus-years military legacy handed down from Bantam and Willys to Kaiser to AMC to Chrysler. The point of this history lesson is to note that in times of war or national emergency, America's industrial might has been called to serve, and may well be called on again.

7 major automakers to build open EV charging network

Wed, Jul 26 2023

A new joint venture established by BMW, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz and Stellantis will build a new North American electric vehicle charging network on a scale designed to compete with Tesla's industry-benchmark Supercharger network. The 30,000-plus planned new chargers will accommodate both Tesla's almost-standard North American Charging System (NACS) and existing automakers' Combined Charging System (CCS) options, effectively guaranteeing compatibility with the vast majority of current and upcoming electric models — whether they're from one of the involved automakers or not.  "With the generational investments in public charging being implemented on the Federal and State level, the joint venture will leverage public and private funds to accelerate the installation of high-powered charging for customers. The new charging stations will be accessible to all battery-powered electric vehicles from any automaker using Combined Charging System (CCS) or North American Charging Standard (NACS) and are expected to meet or exceed the spirit and requirements of the U.S. National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program." Critically, the automakers involved will have a say in how the charging tech is implemented, guaranteeing that the hardware will play nicely with each automaker's in-house charging systems. Hyundai and Kia, for example, were hesitant to jump on board the Tesla NACS bandwagon earlier this year over concerns that the Supercharger network is insufficient for powering the two automakers' 800-volt charging systems; similar tech is used by Volkswagen and Porsche.  In addition to providing much-needed capacity and high-output charging for America's growing fleet of electric cars and trucks, the new network will integrate seamlessly with each automaker's in-app and in-vehicle features, rather than forcing customers to use third-party tools and payment systems, as is the case with some existing public charging infrastructure.  "The functions and services of the network will allow for seamless integration with participating automakersÂ’ in-vehicle and in-app experiences, including reservations, intelligent route planning and navigation, payment applications, transparent energy management and more. In addition, the network will leverage Plug & Charge technology to further enhance the customer experience," the announcement said.

Bid on the incredible George Barris Supervan in Scottsdale

Fri, Jan 22 2016

Barrett-Jackson's upcoming Scottsdale, AZ, auction features the groovy Barris SuperVan, which came from the mind of car customizing legend George Barris. He even autographed the interior. Passengers enter the SuperVan through the hinged windshield, and once inside they can party in style thanks to the roof-mounted disco ball. However, occupants can't get too wild because the massive side windows don't leave much room for privacy. Barris built the van around a 1966 Dodge Tradesman A-100 with a three-speed manual gearbox and a 318-cubic-inch V8. Barris originally called the van the "The Love Machine," and it later had quite a Hollywood career. Its on-screen appearances included the '70s movie SuperVan, and a repainted version served as a Hill Valley Transit bus in Back to the Future II. After his passing at age 89 last year, Barris' creation might see a further boost in value. Barrett-Jackson doesn't offer a price estimate for the SuperVan, but we can't wait to see what this groovy vehicle sells for with no reserve. Collectors already valued Barris' work before his death. For example, his 1960s Batmobile, which was likely Barris' most famous creation, went for $4.62 million at a Barrett-Jackson auction in 2013.

It was used for many movies and TV shows after that, such as the Hill Valley Transit bus in "Back to the Future II," "Sea Quest" and the 1970 movie "Solar Crisis." The van has been completely restored to its "SuperVan" look and has since been signed by George Barris. Manual transmission.
