Sorry to see you selling her especially with all the work you put into her. Good luck with the sale. Either new choice would be sa-weet though.

Will Say it aint so! I know you have alot of work, money, sweat and tears put into your Magnum. Good Luck with sale! I hope you get what you asking for. I love the 300C SRT8 but GCSRT FTW! But if/ when you sell yours and want a 300C SRT8 w/ 65k miles, let me know.

Thanks guys. I'll only sell for the right price or to the right person. You're right... I have a lot of money and time into this car. If I don't get the right thing going, as I will prefer to replace it with an SRT Jeep, I will be taking out a small loan to overhaul it and stroke over that little 5.7 and rebuild the AWD drivetrain to handle the high torque.
No matter what, I'm not going anywhere for a looooong time. It is NoCar or MoPar in my garage.

Well I would say its decision time now before you unload $$$ into overhauling drivetrain and stroke ing engine to 392CI or whichever direction you are going. I only say that because, yes it will help it sell faster but it usually doesnt get a buyer paying more. Not that I have a super carzy coin invested in mine, but I come to realization that no one is going to give me $4k for 3.73 gear up grade, Torque Convertor upgrade, Drivetrain upgrade, Transcooler and other engine mods for 90mm TB, Exhaust, Intake, Programmer. it is usually my loss your gain, so if I do sell mine, it will most likely be a realistic blue book asking price. Not saying you cant get more than blue book but chances are rare because banks usually wont finance over blue book. |

Not saying you cant get more than blue book but chances are rare because banks usually wont finance over blue book. AMEN BROTHA!!! I'm with you... my loss is your gain. Hence I'm asking roughly $1k less than high book. Its a good starting negotiating price. What most people also don't realize is what we see at nada.com or kbb.com as a "high" value is typically a few percent less than what a dealer shows in their own log-in. This is because the Dealer gets the privilege of booking a car based on its VIN, not just its options. I should know... I have that option as well since I have access to dealer log ins for both KBB and AllData Pro. I'd love to buy your SRT, but I truly want the Jeep. I'm about to make a huge decision. If I can refinance the car for the measly few grand I owe, then I'm going to ask for above payoff so that I can begin the rebuild. I owe less than even auction value so if they work with me at Utah Power, its game on... HORSEPOWER HERE I COME!!! If not, then I'll consider the Jeep SRT like planned. I began polishing the Magnum today. My wife bought me a complete Griot's Garage Random Orbital polisher with 3 grades of pads and polishes/cutting compounds. All I can say is bless her heart because man did my car need a professional polishing, like I used to do at the body shop. I LOVE IT!!! Just cutting the paint makes me love her even more. Its like a tan on chubby but pretty chick... it just helps her get better looking. |

HEY!!! Don't be so sad yet!!! I went to Utah Power and refinanced the ride at a beautiful 2.99% and took $3,500 in equity on top to repair the transfer case and rebuild the rest of my front end.... I now have a $13k note in lieu of the previous $10,500.
Point is... my car dealer booked for $17,775 as is... that's up $4,000 in 2 years since Chrysler got back on its feet. If that's the case, the car has good value not being made anymore.
This guy and this car ain't goin nowhere!!!
WOOO HOOO!!!!
Just need to fix my Navigation joystick now.
