2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8
First Year Edition #5279 / 6400 22,751 miles 6.1L Hemi V8 5-speed automatic transmission Navigation Kicker subwoofer Heated seats Sunroof K&N cold air intake Mopar T-Handle shift knob Car cover for winter storage Actual spare tire instead of air compressor / fix-a-flat New tires on rear Why I am Selling I bought this car in New York after my fiancee wrecked her CRD Grand Cherokee last summer. We put a lot of miles on it in the first few months, but I had her Jeep rebuilt and back on the road by September. We garaged this car through winter, and now we don't seem to drive it that much. We are having a hard time justifying the car payment, so it's time to sell it. It needs to belong to someone who is going to drive and enjoy it. Exterior I would rate the exterior an 8/10. It has minor scuffs and scratches that come with cars of this age and mileage. There are two significant scratches of note (see pictures): the first is on the hood at the front edge just right of the striping and is approximately 2"x5", and the second is on the driver's rear view mirror and is approximately 4" long. I have not tried to work these out. The car also has some errant wax on the lower trim. I intended to have it detailed, only to find my detailer has gone out of business. It could use a good wax and buff to make it really shine. Interior I would rate the interior a 9/10. The leather has some creases forming on the outside bolsters on the driver's seat (common for a car of this age and mileage), but I cannot find a rip or tear in any seat or section of the carpet. It has been kept clean the entire time it has been with us. We're in our 30s, we don't smoke, and we don't have kids. Modifications There are two aftermarket parts added by the previous owner: a K&N cold air intake and a Mopar T-handle shifter. All US SRT-8 and R/T Challengers come with a mini air compressor and a fix-a-flat blend for any flat tires because normal spare tires wouldn't clear the massive brakes. I went and got a hub adapter, 18" spare tire, a jack, and the lug wrenches needed to give this car a legitimate spare tire. I still have the mini compressor and I believe I have the Styrofoam insert for the spare tire well, and will gladly include these. I just didn't want the risk of getting stranded with no spare tire. Maintenance We have only used the Mobil 1 0w40 recommended on the oil cap. We have changed the oil when it tells us to. Given the average intervals, it should be due for an oil change any day. I will be sure to change the oil before it sells so any buyer doesn't have to worry about a change oil message on their way home. We also replaced the rear tires with Yokohama Parada Spec-Xs a few months ago. The front tires have about 20% of their tread left and do stick well. I would guess they have about 4-5,000 miles left. Replacements to match the rears can be found at Discount Tire. Accident History We have not had any incidents in the year that we have owned it. A title history check shows there is a minor accident or act of vandalism occurring before we owned it, despite still having a clear title. I cannot speak definitively as it happened in New York to the previous owner, but I cannot find a bad line on the car. Additionally, there was a large spot of stained clear near the fuel filler when I bought the car. It completely buffed out, leading me to believe this was an act of vandalism. Again, I cannot speak definitively, but I encourage you to inspect the car if you can and verify its condition. Shipping I love driving across the US. If you don't and want it delivered for less, we can work out a deal. I can also pick you up at the airport (ABQ) or work with any auto transport service you hire to move the car. I am extremely flexible and will do everything I can to help. Payment As mentioned before, we have a loan on the car. HOWEVER, I have arranged alternate financing to get the title released in the event it sells. I will need 7-10 days to process my funding and get the title released and in hand. I do not require anything beyond the deposit before the transaction to get the title in-hand and ready to transfer. Any payments of the balance must come in the form of cash or a certified check. I have a bank that is available Monday-Saturday, and we can schedule a time to meet there and complete the transaction. Inspections, Questions, etc. If you would like to have the car inspected or you have any questions, please let me know. I am quick to respond to emails, and I will likely load the eBay app on my phone so I can respond even faster during this auction. Please do not hesitate to ask a question or make an offer. The worst I can say is no. Thanks for looking at this ad! Disclaimers I have this vehicle for sale on multiple sites. It is for sale locally, and I reserve the right to cancel the transaction up to 7 days prior. If any cancellation occurs, full notice will be given and any monies exchanged will be returned. This is a used vehicle and comes for sale as-is. There are no warranties expressed or implied with the car. |

Junkyard Gem: 1994 Dodge Caravan with manual transmission
Tue, Jul 4 2017The K Platform saved Chrysler from certain doom after the company's 1979 bailout by the federal government, and one of the most successful K-based vehicles was the one that spawned the American minivan craze in 1984: the original Dodge Caravan/Plymouth Voyager. Built all the way through the 1995 model year, these K-Caravans or K-Voyagers could be purchased with a four- or five-speed manual transmission, but just a handful were sold that way. Here's an extraordinarily rare late 5-speed example, spotted in a San Francisco Bay Area wrecking yard. The shifter location is a little awkward, requiring the driver to reach back a bit more than would be the case in, say, a Dodge Shadow (which shared the same powertrain). It's too bad that Chrysler never offered these vans with five-on-the-tree manuals. Even though plenty of Mitsubishi-V6-powered front-wheel-drive Chryslers of the late 1980s and early 1990s were available with manual transmissions (e.g., the Chrysler Laser/Dodge Daytona or the Plymouth Sundance/Dodge Shadow), Chrysler minivan shoppers who wanted a stickshift had to take the four-cylinder engine (either a Chrysler 2.2/2.5 or, in the early years, a Mitsubishi 2.6 Astron). This one has the naturally-aspirated 2.5-liter engine that went into so many Plymouth Acclaims and Chrysler LeBarons. In 1995, it was rated at 100 horsepower, which made for stately acceleration with a full load of passengers. For the 1989 and 1990 model years, a 150-horse turbocharged Chrysler 2.5 with 5-speed was the high-performance minivan setup... and you should let us know if you find a factory-built one. This is only the second example of a manual-trans-equipped 1990s Chrysler minivan I have found in the junkyard (the first was this '93 Voyager), and both vans were lightly-optioned El Cheapo models with cloth seats and hand-crank windows; the manual transmission was a bit cheaper than the automatic in those days. At least this one has air conditioning. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Fiat Chrysler taps Amazon, Shell execs to fill roles
Fri, Dec 7 2018MILAN — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is tapping executives from Amazon and Shell Oil Company with previous automotive industry experience to fill its ranks. CEO Mike Manley said in a letter to employees Thursday that Mark Stewart would join FCA as chief operating officer of North America from Amazon, "a company known for its culture of innovation, and obsession with delivering incredible value to customers." At Amazon, Stewart led teams focused on advanced robotics, artificial intelligence and automation methods. He previously was COO of ZF TRW automotive components supplier. Niel Golightly was named head of global communications. He was most recently Shell's vice president for external relations in North and South America, with a focus on reputation, brand and stakeholder engagement beyond communication strategies. He previously held roles at Ford Motor Company. Related Video: Image Credit: REUTERS/Rebecca Cook Hirings/Firings/Layoffs Alfa Romeo Chrysler Dodge Fiat Jeep RAM FCA Amazon shell Mike Manley
Mopar '13 Dart will roll into Chicago next week
Thu, 31 Jan 2013We think this officially counts as a tradition. Every year going back to 2010, Mopar has rolled out a limited edition version of a popular product from the Chrysler Group portfolio. First it was the Mopar '10 Challenger, then the Mopar '11 Charger, then last year's Mopar '12 300, and this year it will be the Mopar '13 Dart, which will make its official world debut next week at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show.
Limited in number to just 500 units, the Mopar '13 Dart is no mere appearance package, though the demeanor of the Dart will be murdered out with a gloss black finish, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a set of Mopar blue stripes and a mean-looking Mopar ground effects kit. Likewise, the interior is touched up with leather seats (a blue one for the driver and black hides for the passengers), gloss black and black chrome trim, blue accent stitching, a sport pedal kit and other Mopar interior accessories.
Turning our attention back to the mechanical bits, the Mopar '13 Dart comes with the car's most powerful engine, a turbocharged 1.4-liter MultiAir four (shared with Fiat 500 Abarth) that's paired with a manual transmission. Those big, black wheels get wrapped in low profile 225/40R18 performance tires, and keeping everything in check is an upgraded brake kit with slotted rotors. The steering has also been calibrated for performance, the suspension lowered seven millimeters, and the exhaust tuned for better engine breathing.
