This Dodge Dakota Convertible truck was sold on eBay recently, and one lucky car tuning enthusiast was fortunate enough to grab this unique automobile. This is 1 of 909 built in 1990, and there were only around 3,000 ever manufactured between 89-90. Yes, the top is completely factory, and this truck is reasonably priced for how rare it is. Many of these convertible trucks were destroyed in the Cash for Clunkers, a program that lets owners trade in their old cars and trucks for a discount when buying a new car or truck from a dealership. Looks like the owner put a little work into tuning the Dakota convertible as well. Listed in the auction are several modifications including Eagle alloy rims, lowering links, alarm system, and a deep sounding performance exhaust.

With a normal Challenger puting out around 425 Hp, SpeedFactory’s tuning package boosts power by nearly 175hp. To accomplish all this, they took the cars standard 6.1-liter Hemi, bored it to 7.0-liters, and then added a stainless steel exhaust from Corsa and custom Comp. Hydraulic cam with an 85mm throttle body and CNC stock manifold were installed next.

Irmscher has launched a special edition of the Dodge Journey Crossover in Germany to give the family car a complete makeover. The Journey SR is the product, and it receives a sporty look for the so called SUV, but it really still holds minivan features. It’s a family van that has been taken under the wing of the German tuning firm Irmscher, along with the cooperation of Dodge. The modifications are all cosmetic, so there are no performance gains for the stock 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine producing 140 horsepower. Included in the styling kit is a new front apron, roof spoiler, chrome tail pipes, and tinted rear windows.

Rarely do you get to see a street legal car run a single digit quarter mile time, but here is currently the world’s fastest Dodge Challenger. Built by the guys at MR NORMS GARAGE, the world famous tuners pushed the limits with this Challenger project. It was put together on the 2009 SRT8 Dodge Challenger platform, and this race car features too many upgrades to even list, but I’ll give you the run down of the basic improvements.

Dodge has unveiled the Furious Fuchsia special edition 2010 Dodge Challenger R/T Classic and Challenger SRT8 for their 40th Anniversary of the legendary model. Not too sure how ‘furious’ pink is, but the all new Dodge Challenger packs a powerful HEMI V8 with an unmistakable design and world-class handling. Dodge avoided tuning the engine and stuck with the most significant highlight of the car, the exterior shade of Furious Fuchsia Pearl Coat with Pearl White leather seats. The limited edition Challenger rides on large 20-inch polished aluminum rims wrapped in all-season high performance tires to complete the wheel package.
