Fairly low mileage car with several little fixes needed but no major mechanical issues. I've had the car thoroughly checked out by USAA as well as our local dodge specialist here in Irving and with the exception of the items listed below is in good mechanical condition given its a 2005. KBB Private Party in FAIR Condition Value is $3,600.

Engine runs strong and transmission shifts smoothly. Has an automatic/manual sport shifting technology making for some fun and spirited drives!

2.7L V6 R/T Engine

Sport/Auto/Slap Shift Transmission

Sun Roof (No leaks)

No Oil or Fluid Leaks

ICE COLD A/C

Minor Dings, Dents, Scratches

Serpentine Belt is loose and will need to be replaced soon. Once replaced I'd feel comfortable driving this car anywhere in the country. As a result of the belt being loose it squeaks some when first started but the annoying sound goes away soon after starting. While I had it for sale locally someone broke into the car which caused damage to the driver side scissor arm and control assembly. I still have the original door panel and electronic lock mechanism etc but the driver side power window assembly needs replacement. The driver side door handle needs replacement as all this was damaged when the car was recently broken into.

Comes with an extra starter - I had an electric issue about 6 months ago and I thought I was going to need a starter so I bought one however the problem was with the alternator which I had replaced with a new part by a licensed mechanic. Car is located in Irving, TX. I would feel comfortable driving the vehicle most anywhere however knowing the serpentine belt needs to be replaced soon and is a bit loose I'd recommend replacing it before going cross country.

This vehicle is well suited for the buyer who is looking for a sporty and spirited daily driver and has the time, know how, and resources to fix the many small things that need to be fixed to be considered in Good or better condition. I recently bought both a new car and a new truck and now need to let go of the car. I still find myself preferring to drive this car over my new car as its much more exciting and fun to drive.

I'm not aware of anything else needing work on the car and have been as thorough as possible in describing the condition of the car.

Please make deposit of $500.00 within 48 hours of auction close and arrange for the balance within one week of auction close. Plan on picking up the vehicle in a reasonable time frame (a week or two or call me to work it out) I can deliver the vehicle within a couple hundred mile radius for a minimal convenience fee.

Is your new-car warranty good at the race track?

Mon, Feb 27 2017

We've all heard the horror stories. Your buddy knows a girl that was dating a guy whose best friend's brother once broke his brand-new, recently purchased performance car while making runs at a drag strip or laps at a track day, and the manufacturer wouldn't cover the repair under warranty. True story? Urban legend? Complete crap? Yes, no, maybe. One thing's for sure: Automotive warranties have always come with caveats. In 1908, an ad in the Trenton Evening Times clearly stated: "All Ford Cars Guaranteed for One Year." Although it changed over time, by 1925 the Ford New Car Guarantee only covered 90 days on material and 30 days on labor, and it clearly stated that that there was "No guarantee whatever on Fan Belts, Glass, Bulbs, Wiring, Transmission, Bands, Hose Connections, Commutator Shells, Rollers, Spark Plugs or Gaskets." Whether or not Ol' Henry would pay to fix your Model T if you broke it shaving a tenth off your lap time at the local board track seems to be lost to history. We're guessing no. But what about today? Do new-car warranties in 2017 cover cars when they are driven on race tracks? We researched the warranties of 14 auto brands to find out, and the answer is yes, no, maybe, depending on the brand, in some cases the model, and whether or not your car is modified from stock. Acura has been out of the high-performance car game for a number of years, but jumps back into the party in 2017 with its hybrid-powered $173,000 NSX supercar. And Acura's warranty, as well as Honda's, clearly states that it does not cover "the use of the vehicle in competition or racing events." View 33 Photos So we asked Sage Marie, Senior Manager of Public Relations for Honda and Acura. "If the car is stock, the warranty covers it on a track just as it does on the street. No question," he told us. "However, if the car is modified, say with slick tires or other components that would put higher stresses on the vehicle's parts and systems, then we would have to investigate the circumstances further." Marie went on to say the same would be true for any Acura model or Honda vehicle, including the new 2017 Honda Civic Si. This became a common theme. Chevrolet actually started this practice with the fifth-generation Camaro on the high-performance ZL1 and Z/28 models.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat revving is sonic bacon

Fri, 23 May 2014

This is the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and we're sure that by now, you know its stats, including over 600 horsepower from its 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. What, pray tell, does that blown engine sound like, though?
At least judging on the sonic strength of this video, it's very, very dirty. Honestly, it sounds unlike anything that's come out of the Chrysler Group in a long time, if ever. It's loud, almost brutally so, with a bark that few road-going V8s can match.
Of course, you should be the final judge here. Take a look and a listen at the two videos below, one of which comes from our friends at Cars.com that provides a nice look under the hood, and then let us know what you think of the Hellcat's singing voice in Comments.

Dodge performance trio thrashed on Roadkill

Tue, Apr 14 2015

Of all the shows that Motor Trend does, Roadkill is probably the last one we'd pick to evaluate the latest performance automobiles. That's not a slight against David Freiburger or Mike Finnegan, who host the show: they're certified gear-heads and the go-to guys when it comes to hot rods, rat rods and anything grungier than it is shiny. But as exemplary as they are of Detroit muscle, the Charger Hellcat, Challenger Hellcat and Viper are also shiny new pieces of metal. Still, since it will now be sponsoring the show, someone at Dodge apparently thought it would be a good idea to hand Freiburger and Finnegan the keys to the company's top performance models. So to ring the best out of them, they solicited help from some of their colleagues at MT, gained access to a closed-down air strip, devised as many ways as they could to destroy the tires, and proceeded to set about doing exactly that. Watch the grin-inducing mayhem unfold in the half-hour clip above. Related Video:
