I see the dealer I traded my SRT6 in has finally priced it- 22.9k! Holy 6.5k markup Batman!

I think he will be sitting on that one at that price. What's up with the NA wheels?

+1.

Last time I saw your car it def had SRT wheels on it.

I wonder if they sold them separately and had a spare N/A set lying around and put them on... I think I need to go to this dealer looking to buy one and give them some ****. haha.


P.S. This is how I entertain myself.

Putting it in the showroom shows that the car has been well taken care of. Congrats to you for that. Can't blame the dealer for trying to see if someone will bit at a higher price for a car that's showroom clean.

I think most dealers out there have overpriced SRTs sitting on their lots. They need to get with the times and realize there is a difference between what KBB is saying, and the actual market out there for these cars.

I traded it with my winter set-up on. Eagle F1 All-Seasons on NA wheels. I sold my stock wheels and used the cash to upgrade Caliber SRT4.

I hit the ground running with mods on this car- I now have:
- MPx catted downpipe
- Needswings Intake
- MPx strut bar
- Mopar Sway bars
- Mopar Blow off plate
- AGP catch can
- AGP Billet Solid Engine mount (may remove- way too many vibrations)
- Lightweight Crank Pulley
- Pillar Pod with AEM wide-band, and Aeroforce Scan Gauge

The car is certainly getting better. Now I'm just waiting for my Mopar Stage 1 ECU to come in from Rob. I want to do a highway pull along side of Chris (distantpulse) to see if I can hang. From a dig he'll murder me.

Ha, I didn't even notice the sticker! That makes this the NEEDSWINGS Special Edition or NWE SRT6, which commands the higher price . An unsuspecting buyer will be in for a surprise when the accelerator reaches the GO FAST button !

6k or 60k? If it's the former- great price! The latter- way too much!

It still says 330 hp!? The NW intake and manifolds should add ....what, maybe 50 hp at the crank? It also helps put the hiked price in perspective, they combine for nearly $2,500.

Maybe the dealer could get KBB to buy the car for that price!

Dealer's typically will downplay any work or aftermarket parts put on by a previous owner.

Unless your name is Hennessey, Roush, etc. they don't want to push the fact that the car has been modified. People get to thinking that the car was beat-on if they know there's a lot of Mods..... especially to the powertrain.


I see the dealer felt the need to put their own promotional sticker on the paint under the drivers side taillight. Jackasses!

The mileage was at least 60 k on that SRT in AC. I was there on Saturday afternoon, the show ran through Sunday. Don't know if the car went on the auction block or was sold. The phone number on the car had a 732 area code - north/central Jersey. Wonder if the owner is a member?
