I am looking to sell my 2008 Dodge Caliber SRT-4. The car is nice and clean, never driven by a smoker. At the time of the listing the car has just under 30000 miles, but it is my daily driver (50 miles one way) so the number might go up. I bought the car almost a year ago and I am very happy with it. I am looking to sell it however, because I am tired of driving stick-shift in traffic. From my understanding the vehicle is pretty rare. It is a great car for young person looking to impress. Great to learn how to drive stick. It has a small engine which means it will be great on gas. According to my calculations I easily get 25mpgs in city/highway.

History:
The car has an "S" title. The vehicle was stolen and then auctioned off by the insurance agency after it was recovered. There was no damage. After it was bought by a dealer at an auction, it was then sold to my family member who drove it for some time. I bought the car with just over 13000 miles on it and drove it ever since. Absolutely no problems.


!!!Please see the report on the bottom. The car has S-title because it was stolen. There were no accidents or any damage!!!

Upgrades:
I am a firm believer that the more you mess with the car, the more likely it is for something to go wrong with it. That's why the upgrades were done to make the car look better. Everything mechanical is stock.
The previous owner did all the upgrades to the car. The back window and rear side windows are tinted (legal in NJ). Extra speakers were put in in the front doors (I think they're called tweeters). The stereo is also wired for a sub-woofer and amplifier with wires running to the trunk. The SRT model of the Caliber does not come with a spare tire, but I bough a "doughnut" and a jack which now comes with my car. 
Shortly after I bought the car I noticed that one of the taillights was retaining water. Since the pictures were taken I have replaced the taillights which are now stock (no dark paint). They look beautiful. Message me if you'd like to see more pictures.

Maintenance: 
The car gets full synthetic oil. It has been replaced every 6000 miles with dealer-recommended Mobil 1 SAE 0W-40. Last week I just replaced the brake pads. Front tires were put on this winter, but rear tires need to be replaced by the end of this summer. The vehicle also requires premium gasoline and that's what I've used every single fill up. 

Please feel free to email me with any questions you might have. I am not a mechanic, but I will do my best to answer all your questions. Serious inquires only. 

The auction may be cancelled at any time as the vehicle is also listed elsewhere. Please pay $500 non-refundable deposit at the end of auction via PayPal. I will NOT accept the rest of the payment through PayPal. I will release the vehicle and signed title only after payment has been received in full and cleared in my bank account.

2014 Dodge Durango Ron Burgundy ads already have 2.7M views [w/videos]

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

The guy who once made the Dodge Stratus a punchline of sorts is now a spokesman for the 2014 Dodge Durango, and the move appears to be paying off handsomely for Dodge. Will Ferrell, acting as 1970s-era TV news personality Ron Burgundy, has teamed up with the automaker for co-branded advertisements between the refreshed 2014 Durango and Ferrell's new movie, Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues. Like Ferrell's fictional character, the ads are outrageous, flamboyant and a bit random. They're also successful: Automotive News says that more than 2.7 million people have already watched the videos since they debuted on October 5.
Those views are similar to the numbers that AN's top viral video of the year (e.g. Volkswagen's "Get Happy" Super Bowl ad) received, but there will eventually be as many as 70 videos comprising the Burgundy-Durango spots. According to the report, the videos were created primarily as a viral campaign online, although some are airing on television, too. For Dodge's part, the cost of the videos was significantly lower than a usual television campaign thanks to the fact that Ferrell wasn't paid for the spots since they were made in cooperation with promotional efforts for his new movie.
We've already posted a few of the videos in our previous post, but scroll down for several more - and head over to Adweek for a little added background on how these spots came to be.

Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue. Scroll down to read the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration press release.

eBay Find of the Day: Viper Defender from '90s TV show

Fri, 24 May 2013

As car lovers, it's always hard to find a good television show with decent cars, but what the 1990s show Viper lacked in acting, scripting and plot, it more than made up for with cool cars. For starters, the lead car was a Dodge Viper RT/10, but, on screen, it was able to morph into its "Defender" mode making it an armored coupe with a full arsenal of weapons.
Fortunately, you don't have to be a fan of the bad show to love its lead car, and if you really want one, a Defender is up for auction right now on eBay. According to the listing, this car is the real deal - not a clone - and it comes with a V8 engine (not sure what happened to the V10?) and plenty of swag and memorbilia. No word on its actual asking price, but with a day left and 42 bids already, the reserve has not been met at $133,400. The listing does add that this same car was listed at Mecum back in 2010, but did not get sold, even with a bid of $270,000.
