color code is CA, no one seems to know what it stands for haha, any ideas?

engine is on hold for a bit, needs a few more things before its ready to drop in and I dont have the money at the moment. want to to everything in one foul swoop.

Very sad to see your Avenger go but best of luck with your new Trump.

Please feel free to still hang around on the forum and post stuff. Once an Avenger owner always an Avenger owner.

cheers mate, its definitely a very different car to drive. love the sound of the 6 cylinder, needs manual conversion asap

avenga

Yeah, 6's sound great. I love a sound of my 265 Hemi 6 in my charger.

A pity your 6 is only 2.5L, you should try the 4.3L 6 in the Charger. So much torque. It doesn't need a manual because it pulls hard in top gear at pretty much any speed.

haha im not saying it needs a manual, it would just be so much more fun with one

avenga

Sure mate, I am sure your tiny little 6 is putting out some power ;)

I don't see how people could put manuals in Chargers, they are stupidly torquey so I would imagine a manual would just be a nightmare. I just leave mine in D and cruise and if I want to hoon then just stick it in to 2nd and all hell breaks loose. I love doing that on the motorway, going 60MPH, slap it down to 2nd, mash the loud pedal and it takes off like a rocket and sound soo cool.

I can see on smaller engines that you need a manual, like my Avenger is awesome with the 5 speed, but you will find almost all muscle cars are autos because when you get that much power gears don't really matter that much anymore.

Well you know women are much more colour conscious than us guys and after having seeked the advice of fashion consultant Kiera, it can now be revealed that the Avenger paint code CA is in fact CARROT...!!

kierbear

LOLLLLL actually? or are we just deciding to give up and call it carrot? also, i nearly bought a triumph before my avenger haha it was on 18" chromes ewwwwwwwwww
