I found a SRT6 that i could be interested in...its 2 states away...probably a 4-5 hours away, so its doable

ill get a car fax on it ahead of time and look at all the photo's...

how do you typically setup a mechanical inspection??? i wouldnt be making multiple trips..i want to go look at it, take it to a mechanic and either take it or leave it on the spot

do you setup an appointment for a Dodge dealership? or call a specialist to meet you??

im leaning towards a Dodge dealership since i can cancel the appnt. if the car looks like crap

anything special to Crossfire SRT's i should look for? issues/problems?

i think its got 25000 miles

thanks

 

2 states? Should not be that hard. Try buying from across the pond without a test drive. Always trust your instinct and old army veterans.

 

I'd consider an MB dealer over Dodge. They know the drivetrain better. Keep in mind that you'll have to pay tax on the purchase in your state 30 days after you bring her home. At least this was my case in IL. Good luck!

 

Finding a MB dealer is going to make it alot tougher unless they live near a large city....

ive bought new cars from over state lines before, so i know about the tax issue....but thanks for reminding me since ill be handling the tax issues myself since its not a dealer..

who knows..they car could be sold or looks like crap.....ive only gotten 1 photo...i wont go until i see 20+ photo's to make sure im not wasting my time

 

Where is it located? There are probably a handful of guys that would be willing to go check it out and give you their opinion if it is close to them.

 

Along that same line I am looking at a SRT6 this weekend in Wyoming and it has an Oklahoma title because the guy just moved to Wyoming and did not re-title it yet.. I live in CO and can be up there to look it over in 4 or 5 hours. Any one have anything special I need to look for on a title from OK? I have dealt with many state titles but not OK. Are they easily forged etc......
I am not worried about inspecting the car as I have torn my current 1 down several times and replaced the drive train.

 

I did this in October (live in VA bought in NC). If you are buying from a private owner (non-dealership) with a lienholder, beware! Make sure you get your stuff straightened out with the owner's bank before driving to pick it up. In my case, the PO's lienholder took nearly a month to process my payment off his loan, notify the appropriate DMV, and issue me a new title to take to the DMV.

 

Wow, this must be the current theme. I am excitedly making an SRT purchase in another state . Im from Colorado and picking my SRT up i georgia. I had my limited for a few years with no issues to speak of. Any suprises that might be in store for me in an SRT?

 

If you are buying the one larskeller is selling, then you shouldn't have any worries.

As to SRT6 surprises, IC pump and IC itself, other than that, a tighter grip on the steering wheel.

 

First thing I would do is get the VIN and check the SRT Registry to see if was ever owned by a Forum member :https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...rmat-file.html

 

Make sure you compare the VIN on the title to the VIN on the car. I know a guy that bought a Porsche and later discovered the VINs were different. What a nightmare.

 

All good advise.
From the vin # it looks like Daytona Bob owned the car previously.

 

Don't know if he's still active here but you could try to contact him through PM or if his email link is available. Could also go through his posts to see if there is any history of issues, accidents etc.

Good luck.

 

thanks sparkie....sent a pm and looked over all his posts
