And they just look so ****in good !
Not comparing to anything in particular, just didn't care for it. I think I'd honestly buy a modded V2 over a HC. I just hate how new cars are so big. Just looking at the MS6 next to the Jetta makes me shake my head & the Jetta is not even a full size sedan. I can live with less power, always mods available, if I really love the rest of the car. Part of why I went MS6 over EVO or STi when I got my 1st one new in 2007.
Guess it's good I have a V, but the cool kind. I'll state to make decent power is going to cost coin. HE and associated systems are underdeveloped. Pulley replacement is a bitch. Injectors are a must if you do almost anything. I'm guess I'm used to the cheapness and ease of modding a GT500.
OT, did you buy an extended warranty for it? Debating on ours.
Part of why I buy cars already modded to my taste. Save time & money
It's all relative price wise, which is my excuse anyway. My S4 was a bigger pain in the ass, more expensive for bigger upgrades, and made a lot less power. I have about $3k into my V, if I have one, some may say I don't. Bang for buck, I don't see it as too much compared to similar mods for others. Downside of tech advancements, makes mods pricier. Hell all the stuff to delete my diesel is going to run damn near the same amount.
Nah. Thought about it, but in the past, I have never once been in a position where I would have used an extended warranty. We hardly ever keep cars more than 3-4 years. Having said that, I can actually see us keeping this one much longer than that.
Nobody said you owned or didnt own one, I wanted to see pics to see what color you got. But since you like to bring it up, did you buy it for $55k?
LOL
Generally when people say cars can be found for such and such a price it excludes anomalies such as super high miles or salvaged titles.
The 16 V can be had for low 60k would be accurate. And the 14 RS7 can be found for the mid 50k. That RS7 with a certified tag would be an amazing vehicle!
That is bad. That could be a lawsuit waiting to happen.
@BrunotheBoxer, have you tried Central Dodge in Norwood?
Actually you did allude to it, had nothing to do with color. Don't really care honestly since I may or may not have one anyway. What I paid wouldn't be believed for the options, color, etc. It might even be one of those 15' models that never existed...
The immediate dismissal is what amuses me. Say for example occasionally a mystic cobra pops up for $20k, when the average is 28k, that must also mean that it's impossible. Mind you options and mileage were never referenced.
A base 16 with 25k miles isn't the same price as a 16 with carbon package,etc with 5k miles. Low 60's are the average, however to dismiss any that will come up for less is hilarious. Deals aren't hard to find if you're patient and know what you want. Not finding exactly what you want right this second, doesn't make it impossible.
The one for 63k on autotrader has been around since Aug I believe. We're now into winter for half the country which cuts down on buyers. Someone interested could likely get it for less than asking. Except that wouldn't be possible...
You two are welcome to pile on all you like, really doesn't matter as I know what I've seen.
The part is back ordered through out the whole country. Any dealer that has one won’t give them up as there are over 1000 people waiting for them. Also the current water pump is such a piece of shit that Dodge is searching for a new vendor to produce an improved one.
Any left over water pumps will probably fail anyway.
I got all this from the dealer today.
Wow,...that sucks. Talk about a fiasco!
At least you'll be pimping in the '17 Ram truck for the winter. lol
Jesus, my newest is a 04 150 with a 131k on it. Ballers everywhere here.
I like the truck but much prefer to be in my Challenger.
I would buy one and just ask the tech and service writer write up something else that's roughly same amount of time, swap out the pump with customer part. Then tip the guy a hundy and or take tech, service writer out to lunch. They would probably be agreeable to an arrangement like that. I know these are things one shouldn't have to do in order to get things done, but it's worth a shot and beats waiting six months.
