Q: were can i rent a srt8 red dodge charger or a 2008 red ford mustang shelby in the houston area?
i am looking to rent a red srt8 dodge charger or a 2008 red ford mustang shelby for an especial occasion in the houston area?
please let me know if any ideas?

A: You might try Galleria Exotics. It looks like they may have what you need. The price they quote is actually not bad. Just realize they usually have a Rev Limiter on these. If you rev them up too much they have a kill switch that cuts it off, and your have to pay to have it picked up. Other than that, they are loads of fun and for a special ocassion, worth the $500 plus insurance.

I rented one for my wife’s 50th birthday, and it was the biggest surprise of her life. The picture I have of her shows her grinning ear to ear, and you can see it through the windshield. Best picture I ever got of her, and she still talks about it.

Q: How can you make the 2009 dodge challenger srt8 weigh less?
What parts can you remove from the 2009 dodge challenger srt8 to make it significantly lighter?

A: Nothing will make a big difference. You’ll hear some people say remove the spare tire, take out the back seat, stuff like that – taking 100 lbs off the car won’t make a noticeable difference in a car that weighs more than two tons. And what would you do if you removed the spare and then had a flat?

If you want a lighter car, buy a Mustang or wait for the Camaro.

EDIT – as I expected, you did get an idiot that thought removing the back seat would be a good idea. You will NEVER notice the difference in performance, and now your 5 seat coupe seats 2. Moron.

Q: how long to order a 2008 Dodge Charger SRT8?
I’m looking to get a 2008 Dodge Charger SRT8. I live in Georgia and according to the dodge website there isn’t one on a lot within 300 miles. I called a couple of dealerships and they said they could get me one in a couple of days. Does this sound right? If I put down a deposit, how long until they would actually have it. Also, are they going for MSRP or more?

A: Yeah that is about right. A dealer usually has agreements with other dealers and they pull one off another dealer’s lot or just order one, but a few days sounds normal. The most you should have to wait is two weeks.

As for price, depends on the dealer. They may mark it up a bit from MSRP. Could be a few thousand more than MSRP, but then again you could find a good dealer that won’t. It’s a toss up either way. You can negotiate on the price even before you order it.

Q: Am i the only one that likes the dodge challenger srt8?
why is it that every time i see a video on youtube of the dodge challenger srt8, some crappy honda or some ghetto car beats it and then people on the forum try to say that the honda is stock!

does any body know of a video that shows the srt8 winning?

personally i think the challenger is kickass!!!

A: I love it also, wish I could fit one into the old budget.

Q: I have a choice between 2 cars. Which one should I get, the Dodge Challenger SRT8 or the 2010 Mustang GT?
My cousin has a 1989 5.0 Mustang and everyone else I know has a mustang, but I really like the Dodge Challenger SRT8. I dont know what I should do.

A: Dodge Challenger SRT 8 hands down.

Q: Car Insurance on a 2008 Dodge Charger SRT8?
I was wondering what is a aproximate rate on the car insurance on a Dodge Charger SRT8. I am 22 years old and a good record. Any suggestions doesnt have to be accurate. Also if you have 2 cars is the rate cheaper than just 1 car.

A: yes it is cheaper to insure two cars rather than one,my cousin just bought a new charger with the hemi in it,and her insurance is well over 200 a month right now,the told her it would come down as she got older ,she doesn’t have any tickets or anything else,but to me that’s way too much to pay for insurance,but that’s full coverage also,she is also 25 years old,good luck.

Q: Does my Dodge Charger SRT8 HAVE to use 91 octane?
I am getting a SRT8 Charger and I have read that the recommended fuel is the 91 octane. Will it screw up my engine to run 87 or even run 87 with octane booster? My truck has 10.1 compression and runs great on 87. THe SRT Hemi is only 9.8 or there about.

A: not reccomend but required. the car is tuned for it and because of that wont run properly without 91+ octane.

Octane boost doesnt help much unless you put in a few bottles every fill up.
and your compression has nothing to do with it its all about timing.

when your fuel combusts

Q: How much does a Brand new Dodge Challenger SRT8 cost in Mexico?
Because I plan on joining the army and use my signing bonus to buy a new car. I also want to save some money.

A: depends who is buying it…….drug dealers pay cash, so they’ll look for a deal……..a regular working man won’t have the pesos or credit, so he’ll get stuck paying more.

Q: I need a soft copy manual for a Dodge Charger SRT8.?
I’ve always been able to download free manuals for my cars in the past. Does anyone know where I can find a free one for a Dodge Charger SRT8? Even a manual for the engine and a separate one for the rest of the car would be ok.

A: you cant download free ones anymore for the newer model ones,you can go to dodges web site and pay for one or order a soft copy from them or a dealer can get you one for it,you can get some manuals for the newer ones on their web site but not many are available right now,you may find one for it on this site,good luck. http://www.dodge.com/webselfservice/dodge/index.jsp?screenName=service&country=us&emailUrl=goToEmailForm(‘R’)

Q: How much would a down payment on a Dodge Charger SRT8 be?
I looked online and found one i like and the price for it is $27,748. So how much do you think the down payment on it would be?

A: Downpayment can be anything you want it to be. Just keep in mind that the lower your downpayment, the higher the COB ( cost of borrowing ) will be as you are paying more in interest charges as well as possibly even a higher interest rate.

Some places ask for a minimum of 5% down, others say no-money-down. I would suggest putting down as much as you can comfortably afford so you pay less interest on the loan.

Nice car BTW

Q: how much does it cost to fill up a 2006 dodge charger srt8?
how much does it take to fill up a tank on one of these also which gas is recommended ?

A: It takes about 17 gallons to fill it up so multiply that by the price per gallon in your area to figure out the cost.
Also an SRT8 uses premium unleaded therefore more money to filll it up.

Q: Do the Dodge charger srt8 and the chrysler 300 srt8 have the same engine?
I was just looking at the specs and they are all the exact same that i noticed….I know they are both made by the same corp…

A: Yes, the drive train is the same on both vehicles. The differences are in the interior and exterior.

Q: How much would a dealership pay for a (2006-2008)Dodge Charger SRT8 at a car auction?
I really want to get one. But only dealerships can buy cars for the low. I have 8 grand and could have 10 by Jan 2009. Who can I pay to go and get me the car?
I perfer the SRT8. But the RT would do for me.

A: they pay almost what loan value is on them ,people are very misguided on this part of it they think that dealers really do get these car dirt cheap and they don’t,when it goes through the sale the pay real high amounts for them sometimes,usually never less than 80% of the value,especially on a srt8 charger,those cars don’t run through the sale to cheap,usually for a fee of a few hundred bucks they will let you go with them and bid on a car,and buy it,most dealers charge a 300-500 buck fee and ask you not to tell what you actually paid for it,we went Wednesday night and took a few buyers,and all they bought was small cars,the fee is still the same though if you buy a car,good luck.,,PS i found the sale sheet for the night we went,and there was one charger that went through the sale it sold for around 24 thousand counting the sale bill on it and it was 2007 model with very low miles on it,this should give you a general idea of what one will cost you,good luck.
