Got a new (to me) toy... - 01/10/21 04:54 AM

Kayse and I took a trip back to Bowling Green KY to pick up the new (to us) toy.

We saw it while we were at the Holley Moparty at Beech Bend Raceway in September.
It's in it's new home now covered up in our garage.

2010 Challenger SRT, 6 speed manual. 52k miles.
It has a few upgrades, Kook's long tube headers, ARP head studs, Comp camshaft kit, Arrington 85mm throttle body, all new accessories, and a Dyno tune.

Kayse felt the need to hug the new baby for the dealers "Sold" pic. laugh2

The car came out of Alabama originally, it had two previous owners both from there.
Second owner had the mods done at Bryant Brothers Automotive & Performance back in 2017.

I like the color. up

I see mostly black and charcoal/silver ones around here, and they all look the same after awhile.

Our '10 is purple.

You'll love it with the 6 speed.

We had looked at a 2010 purple one locally.
It wasn't a bad car, but had 86k miles on it but it was an automatic and I really wanted a 6 speed.
It was cheaper as they wanted $17,977 for it, of course they raised the price to $18,977 while I was looking at it.
All 4 wheels on it had been lightly curbed. How do you curb drivers side wheels????


I had looked over the yellow one alot and took pics back in September when we were at the Holley Moparty at Beech Bend.
It's chip and ding free, panel fitment is good, it's really clean for a 10 year old car.
The mileage was low and it had mods that I would want to do anyway.
We got it for $21k, which was a number I could live with since the car is pretty clean.
It's one of 114 Detonator Yellow 6 speed hardtops (non sunroof) 2010 Challenger SRT's.

I swear there are more black Challenger's than any other color at least based on sale ads. laugh2
Black is the one color that I wouldn't even consider owning, too high maintenance to keep clean.

The only problem you will have is bugs. Every yellow car I ever owned was always molested with buggery everywhere I went, they thought it was a big flower! laugh2

Thanks for printing that chart, I'd forgotten where i'd seen it.

We've had ours about a year, 48k miles, no sunroof, no mods.

Really wanted a 6.1, love the underhood look with the aluminum intake.

Ours was ordered with the staggered tire sizes

Since buying it I did the skip shift eliminator.

We looked for a couple of years, hardly ever saw any that weren't black or silver, and auto.

Love the yellow! I remember seeing one when they were new, the owner had removed the hood stripes.

Was yours stripe delete? Any chance you were given the window sticker?

Yeah, we have the same problem with Kayse's Top Banana Yellow 2006 Charger Daytona.
It's a bug magnet when it's sitting still. laugh2

I don't have the window sticker, I'll probably see if I can get a repro one from Chrysler.

Pretty sure it's always been a stripe delete car.

I'd completely forgotten about them needing a skip shift, apparently it already has one.
I had put them in all the Vipers that I've owned.
Who would want to go from 1st to 4th at any time. realcrazy

I sold my last Viper to pay for building a new garage and bought my 300 SRT as an interim toy, but the plan was always to get a Challenger after I'd recouped some of the expense of building the garage.

We saw this car and decided we had to have it.

Give the vin to any Chrysler parts counter and they can print a build sheet. There is [or was] an FCA web portal that would return a window sticker image.

Good idea!

Might have a code for stripe delete, door jamb sticker will show original tire size(s)

Looks nice! Every time I see kind of yellow I think of my Rumble Bee. And it doesn't seem to attract bugs.

I drive past that lot every day. Never stopped to look at it though.
