Vehicle Description
You already know us for vintage cars, but we love the modern
classics, too. Especially when they are fast, rare, and have been
given plenty of the right investments. That's why this one-owner
2005 Dodge Neon SRT-4 ACR is a speedy favorite in our building.
The appeal of this car is as clear as black and white...literally.
That's thanks to a factory Stone White car upgraded with a
lightweight carbon fiber hood and trunk. And you're going to see
care and investments all around this car that maximize its
performance nature. After all, the ACR (American Club Racing) was
built to be a better autocross version of the already ultra-hot
SRT-4. In fact, as a "stripper" version, there were only 88 cars
done in this color...that's it! This likes to announce this level
of speedy intentions with the special BBS wheel, a hood scoop, and
upgraded large dual exhaust tips. Additionally, this version has
been stripped, hence "stripper", of some creature comforts other
models would have, but not necessary in a street beast such as
this. And beyond just the swiftness, there's an attractiveness in
in the overall quality. The fit of the factory panels and the clean
look of the car signal that this has been well-respected over it
young life.
The first thing you notice when you open the door are the front
seats. These are nicely bolstered racing buckets borrowed from the
Viper, and they are special to the ACR with the stitching in the
seatback. Also, there are special white-faced readouts just like
the Viper. This is joined by well-integrated upgrades, like the
AutoMeter boost gauge and a Hurst short throw shifter. This is the
lightweight version, so it skips out on some weighty features like
the upgraded subwoofer sound system and sunroof. But it is by no
means a penalty box. You have air conditioning, power windows,
power locks, a tilt steering column, electric rear defogger, dual
front airbags, cup holders, an AM/FM/CD stereo, and cruise
control.
What makes the SRT-4 so special is the motor. It's a
Mitsubishi-designed 2.4-liter, and the ultra-hot Stage 3 car like
this means a larger turbocharger accompanied by other upgrades. It
includes a titanium aluminized turbine wheel, 682 cc/min fuel
injectors, high flow fuel pump, and more. This also adds a full
controller module on the dash for the turbo, intercooler, and a
special red 100 octane button on the dash for running on race gas.
The engine bay has the fresh look of a well-respected car. That's
because most of its mileage was part of a 110-mile daily commute,
and so the odometer majority reflects interstate mileage. In 2008
it was taken out of commuter duty and given a serious power
upgrade. It started with a Mopar professional shop rebuild that
blueprinted the motor. They enhanced and fortified it with JE
pistons (.20 over), Eagle H-beam rods, a new crank, a Super Damper
over heavy factory balancing shaft, and a rebuilt head with Crower
Stage 2 cams. Forced Performance reworked the turbo for a 30% flow
upgrade over the Stage 3, and now has a GReedy blow-off valve. It
all exhales through a Mopar three-inch cat-back dual exhaust. So
this is one fast Mopar machine. But in the dozen years since this
upgrade there have only been about 3,000 miles put on the car, and
so it truly has gone into young vintage collector status.
The sale comes complete with the original window sticker, bill of
sale, owner's manual, service manuals, and maintenance records.
It's a future classic that's already being appreciated in the
modern world, so now's your time to get it at an affordable price.
