: Help Me Buy My SRT8GC "Buying Tips"
Espino_Srt 03-27-2010, 11:05 PM Alright so first off let me introduce myself before anything. My name is Angel Espino and im 21 Years old. I live in SoCal and its time to step up and get a big boy toy! "Tired Of Playing With Hondas"
So im looking to buy a GC and i been shopping around for the past month. I got 6k Saved up and still going to sell my car. im looking to put 10kdown, i honestly feel like i cannot afford a brand spankin new one. well first because i prolly wont get approved for it since im still starting my credit.
I been looking around and cheapest i found was 25k for a 07 w/60k miles
2nd 07 w/29k miles for 28k
3rd 08 w/30k miles for 35k
So just hoping u guys could help me buy my srt8!
Thanks Alot! Really Appreciate it!
robjeep 03-27-2010, 11:18 PM Heck for 35K, I would just spend a little more and buy a new one. With the deals going on right now you can get a 2010 for 41ish. If you can get approved for a used one, you can get approved for a new one.
Espino_Srt 03-27-2010, 11:31 PM Well my mom has a Dodge Nitro and she got hers for 23 out the door and sticker price was like 33 LOL but shes makes bank and has excellent credit.. im only 21 and only been at my job for 2 years... i pull in atleast 120 hours every 2 weeks and still go to school but thats not the point.. idk i mean ill give it a try but i doubt it.
My mom wont co-sign for me either. she tells me its time to "Grow up" lol. so im trying to get it alone.
If I get a used one what do u guys reccomend as far as mileage and pricing?
A.V.GCSRT8 03-27-2010, 11:31 PM try and get an 08 and up cuz the headlights are angled back a little more than 06 and 07's. They also have the black interior instead of gray. If your going to pay 35,000 used I agree and say you might as well get a new one. I say go with whatever one you get the lowest interest rate on. There are good deals but the hard part is everyone wants one of these now. I wouldnt buy anything with over 30,000 miles but thats just me

The 08 still had the warranty and was pre certified.. ima keep shopping around but yea u know im just doing my research. honestly if i could get one on my own brand spankin new i will.. ima keep saving cash and wait till i come across a good GCsrt8
my bro n law said if i put 10k down on one theyll give me it easy but ima wait till i got the 10k in my hand. and yea the black interior is sik!
A.V.GCSRT8 03-27-2010, 11:49 PM Just take your time man the right one will come along

Yup :) Totaly Agree!
Patience is the key to Success
btw how much did u put down on urs?
A.V.GCSRT8 03-28-2010, 12:07 AM you probably wont believe me but I put $0 down and got it brand new for $31,000 out the door
Espino_Srt 03-28-2010, 12:47 AM you probably wont believe me but I put $0 down and got it brand new for $31,000 out the door
Yea I believe you cause my sister got her tahoe ltz fully loaded out the door when they just came out for like 45k out the door.
Well im just 21 Im using this money i have saved up as a down so i can make sure i get it!
I have to much determination and ambition about everything i do. I really want this jeep so ima get it! A few of my friends have chargers and they there alot better to get one! LMFAO! little do they know. AWD :) and less power loss at the drivetrain
Yea but ima get it for sure. everything just takes time
A.V.GCSRT8 03-28-2010, 12:52 AM Im not to much older than you im 27, so hopefully you get it man. Those friends with chargers are going to get use to seeing your taillights hahaha when you first pull up though they might laugh but just sit there and smile! Ive had a few guys with 300's and chargers not even relize i had the same motor as they did with AWD they were shocked and said they should have bought the Jeep

Yea All my friends have the same either 300's Chargers/Challengers.. but they all got like 24's on em. so much weight!
The jeeps are a beauty as is, maybe a lil drop and a few mods.. chargers n challengers are played out alrdy though... so many people have em.
i just love the jeeps cause the looks/performace.. AWD is the main thing..
whats ur mpg like? i mean i drive 2 miles to work and school and 2 miles back so im not worried.. im worried about weekends when i go out.
A.V.GCSRT8 03-28-2010, 01:06 AM I average 10- 11mpg around town. I work 1/2 mile away and doing whatever other stupid stuff around town a tank of gas usually lasts me about 2 weeks. I try to take my girls lancer also so I dont always have to get gas. Freeway I get about 15-16. I think the stock 20s on all those cars look just fine
SSmokin99 03-29-2010, 02:36 AM I'm in the same boat as you man. I'm looking for a Jeep SRT too and it'll be a 08-10. I want black or red rock. I'll have one, hopefully soon.
