Default 05' Aeroblue SRT-6 Roadster 4-Sale 17k miles

Hi all.
I am reluctantly putting my 2005 Aeroblue Crossfire SRT-6 Roadster up for sale. This is a Florida car and is in near showroom condition. It has 16,950 actual miles on it, has never been in an accident, raced, or abused, and it has always been garaged when not in use. This Roadster is totally original (stock) and has never been smoked in (we are non-smokers). The ashtray has never been used, and seriously -- the interior still smells like new inside! All required maintenance was performed, too include the Mobil 1 synthetic oil changes. You can eat off the engine, the undercarriage is near spotless, and the ragtop looks like new. Other than a couple of minor rim rubs, the exterior and paint are pretty much flawless, and the ragtop functions perfectly! It comes with all the original SRT-6 luggage (never used), the original manuals (too include the navigation cd disc), a front bra (never used), the original tire changing equipment, and 2 key fobs. This SRT-6 Roadster probably ranks as one of the best examples around, and you'd be really hard pressed to find one in better condition!
All of the photos were taken on May 9th, and I didn't do anything special to prep the car other than back it out of the garage...

The Roadster is garaged in Melbourne, Florida, about 20 miles from the Kennedy Space Center.
Thanks -- Bob

May 19 Price Reduction: Now asking $19,000.

Out of Florida, salt free and well kept.
The best color for an SRT Vert.

I'm buying a lottery ticket today.

Wow..Beautiful car. And no paint chips on the hood? Incredible! I hope you find a worthy buyer for her.

I'm puzzled as to how you keep the undercarriage so spotless. Do you use a pressure washer? Some kind of special degreaser?

Nope, I've never washed the bottom, and as far as I can tell, there isn't a paint chip to be found. I just keep it out of the sun (garaged) and only drive it on nice days...

Best regards -- Bob

Wish I could convince the Wifey that we need another SRT, I would love to have a drop top!

Good luck with sale, this looks like an incredible buy!

Bob,
I noticed you have only had the car for 5 months. Do you have any details of its provenance prior to your ownership?

Bob, In your recent post quoted above you note that you have not washed the undercarriage of the car. However in your post dated 1/21/2011 10:30AM you mention washing the underside of the car (quoted below in italics for quick reference):

.....Ken, thanks for the info on the IC. FYI, I've been washing and detailing cars since the mid-60's, and almost always wash the undercarriage each time with a regular garden hose (typically, about 40 psi) and nozzle, and have NEVER had a problem, so wash away!....

Bob, cars sold on this forum usually command a thicker margin than those sold anonymously on trading vehicles like Ebay. it is the esprit de corps of the forum that permits this. Please do your best to reconcile these conflicting statements.

Wow..... really????? Bob has stated that this car is a garage queen, so I would doubt that it has been washed much if any in the 5 months that he has owned it. Most people that have garage queens that know anything about detailing would use a detail spray and not let water touch the paint. I read the entirety of his post that you quoted, not just the snippet that you posted, and did not see anywhere in the post where he stated that he had washed the undercarriage of this Crossfire. He was making a comment of his nearly 50 years experience of car detailing. I agree that full disclosure is imperative when selling a vehicle on this forum, but I do believe that you made a grand leap with your assumptions on this one. JMO anyway.

Per his previous post...

Greetings. I recently purchased an SRT Roadster with 16k miles on it from its original owner, who lives a few miles from me. He had taken excellent care of the car and the only item needing service was the cabin air filter, which was still the factory original. I have replaced many of these on several different vehicles in the past, and I can say from experience that it is typically an easy job, and the SRT proved no different.

Awesome car and good luck with the sale. Wish I could upgrade my 07 roadster with an SRT - maybe in the future.

That or just out and out buy it...that is the color my wife wants and I would like the SRT roadster part of it. But she want's to have two so the upgrade will never happen and just can't invest in one right now.

Hi Folks.

First off, I want to say thank you to bmorgan for coming to bat for me. I very much appreciate your attempting to set putztom straight, but I'll take it from here.

I been on the internet since its inception, and it still never ceases to amaze me how people like putztom take some snippet from a thread (or comment), spin it into something that doesn't exist, and then try and make a court case out of it. My guess is that they just find it easier than taking the time to read the thread?

As for you, putztom, why didn't you contact me via a private message (pm) if you had a question or needed clarification about something I said? Where most people come from, that's what reasonable, intelligent adults do. But no, instead of PMing me like you should have, putztom, you decided to take the low-road and openly insinuate that I was a liar in the forum, like some petty juvenile... Hey, why bother PMing someone beforehand and getting your facts straight when it's easier to just smear them openly on the forum, right?

BTW putztom, I sold my SRT for $20k to the very first person that looked at it. So don't go worrying your fool head no more about whether the undercarriage was washed or not -- ha, ha, ha, ha, ha....


Thanks again for your assistance bmorgan, it was much appreciated!

Best regards - Bob
