WOW!
THIS is the car that sparked my Mopar madness!
Obviously NOT this car.
But one day in late July 2019 a 2014 R/T Shaker showed up at a local dealership's "previously owned" lot.
I had just one a best case scenario disability case and I wa ready to get back into a Muscle car.
The one I drove sparked my LOVE for these beasts!
She was same paint scheme, which, looks SOOOOO BAD ASS with the orange and black look.
She was car #393 of 2000.
I ended up in a 2014 R/TC instead though.
Plum Crazy.
Perfect color for me and a spot in description of the driver/owner..... ME!
But, alas, the gearhead side of my persona became bored after less than 2 years and I was getting embarrassed running off of the red lights In town.
So, i jumped up to a 2015 SRT 392. The little bro of the Hellcat.
Now I was at least sitting next to a bunch of other cars off the light.
Bbuuuutt....
Yeah...
That didn't work long for me.
So I traded up to where I should have started in the first place.
I am saving up and taking notes and asking questions and when the time is right I will be increasing the horsepower on her.
But.... WOW
U have some pretty impressive dyno results for a 5.7L. But, then, it really wasn't JUST a 5.7L when u got done with her.
Very sweet looking car.
Just curious....
What production number is she?

Happy Moparing!

The production number is one hundred and something. I'd have to peel up my dash rug to find the exact number, and that isn't going to happen.
