Minor bug/pebble chips on front around headlights, two scratches on rear bumper from loading trunk. No road rash on wheels. No tear or wear on any interior surface. Spot on trunk carpet lost some fiber (see picture)."

This auction is for one of the rarest PT Cruisers made, it is #1026 of 1543 made and is the only year that Chrysler used the convertible for one of their Dream Cruiser Series #1-5. This is the only time that the Deep Lava Red Pearlcoat paint was used and the only time the matching cloth top was used on a convertible or wagon. The 15 spoke cast wheels were the only wheels available on this edition and there is no road/curb rash on any of them. Chrysler used the Dream Cruisers to honor the annual Woodward Ave. Street Cruise Car Show and limited production to bring customers into the local showroom. They loaded these cars with the best they had to offer and every option they could stick on them.

In 2005 this car sold for over $30K, not just the window sticker, the actual selling price ( I have the original Sales Contract). I am the second owner, when I bought the car I was given the owner's file with all his maintenance records, oil changes, etc. The car was delivered new by Norman Chrysler-Plymouth in Norman, OK. The original owners used it as a "fun car" at their lake house in Eastern Oklahoma and traded it in at  small local dealer for a more "practical" car.

I bought this car because my wife liked it, she has driven it twice in 9 months and it has gone less than 400 miles since we brought it to Texas. It has not been driven in the snow (pretty rare around here) or the rain while we've had it. I'm all for keeping everyone happy but it is time for this car to find someone who is going to drive it and enjoy it. The car is as clean as it looks in the pictures, it has some road chips in the front from having been driven and there are 2 scratches (touched up) on the rear bumper where something was dragged out of the trunk. The tires are like new Pirellis at all 4 corners. We have both keys and remotes along with the Dream Cruiser floor mats and Dream Cruiser Series 4 embossed folder for the Owner's Manual and the other factory books. All maintenance records go with the car. The front bumper has not been drilled for a front plate so it is still intact. The factory convertible boot cover is still in its original plastic bag with the installation instructions inside.

This is a  opportunity to get a very rare, limited production car, unmolested fun to drive car. Both this car's were/are close to retirement and the condition reflects it. My loss will be your gain.

This is a used car and all warranties are expired. I will accept, cash, cashiers/bank check (will verify), wire transfer or PayPal, no personal checks.

Please contact me if any questions or additional info. needed. Good Bidding! No Reserve!

Are you the 2015 Chrysler 300?

Tue, 16 Sep 2014

When Chrysler showed us its hand and revealed its five-year product plan to the world, we learned that the updated 300 sedan will bow at the LA Auto Show in November. Now, thanks to Allpar, we might have our first (super grainy) look at the new sedan a full two months ahead of its official debut.
Unlike its Dodge Charger platform mate, the new 300 isn't really all that different from the model currently on sale. That said, we're not sure if the changes shown here really reflect styling that we'd call "better," with the company's logo sort of floating at the top of the grille, and a more simplistic front end that lets the schnoz stick out a bit. Again, nothing drastic to talk about, but the new tweaks are kind of weak. Of course, we'll wait until we see the finished product in the metal before we make up our minds.
Don't expect things to change too much in terms of interior refinement or powertrain offerings, as well, with all the same leather and technology we've enjoyed in the 300 before, and the usual 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and 5.7-liter Hemi V8 powertrain options. We'll know for sure when the car shows its freshened face in Los Angeles in November.

Fiat-Chrysler shows its SEMA lineup

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles already previewed its 2014 SEMA show lineup with some slick renders. Now, the automaker has finally showed us the actual cars, and among the group there are definitely some that stand out more than others.
Dodge is really showing off its muscle at this year's show with four concepts that all pump up the power of the brand's models. Perhaps most interesting among them is the Challenger T/A Concept (pictured above) in striking Sublime Green and matte black. It's meant to resemble the classic Trans Am racer from the '70s. Under the hood is a 6.4-liter V8, and to fit the vintage style there's a pistol-grip gearshift inside.
The Charger R/T also gets some attention with the Mopar concept that shows off what FCA's aftermarket performance arm can do. Mods include an updated body kit, cold-air intake for the 5.7-liter V8 and a coil-over suspension kit. Beyond that, the Dart R/T Concept looks a lot meaner with a black hood with duct work that leads straight to the air intake. The rest of the compact sedan is dolled up in O-So-Orange paint and is fitted with upgrades to improve handling like a coil-over suspension and big brake kit from the Mopar catalog.

Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.
