Charger Sighting of the Month: Go Mango #1406 With Lots of "Bling"


Driving through my very own "district", so to speak, where I've been banking, shopping and sending off important mail at the local post office, I suddenly couldn't believe my eyes when I suddenly spotted another Go Mango beauty sitting in a large parking lot glistening in the summer sun. Of course I had to go check "her" out. What a beauty!!! I couldn't help but peek through the passenger side window to see the number on the dash-plaque. Wow, this 2006 Dodge Charger R/T Daytona in Go Mango color came off the assembly line quite a few before mine. 

The plaque on the dashboard states it is Go Mango # 1406.  Mine is # 3675. I guess that makes mine the younger sister in the bunch. I love this one's  modded tail pipes. I recall a few years ago I was contemplating putting on nice larger tips myself, but after speaking to a bunch of other Dodge Charger aficionados, I decided to keep it all original and changed my mind. I have to say those tips look very nice. I do like the wheels and aftermarket grille also, but I wouldn't go as far, since, again, I've decided to go against the stream and stay all original. I am hoping that in 30 years from now it will become a classic and true collectible. Then the words, all original, will sound like sweet music in a lucky person's ears (who will win her at the Barett-Jackson Car Auction). 

Those two look really nice side by side. It was fun to take the pics.

Charger Sighting of the Month: GoManGo # 3675 GOHEMI



2006 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T GoMango Still Going

This is the BEST time for me to take the Charger out for a little spin: clear sky, fresh air, and colorful fall foliage! The 5.6 liter V-8 engine with Mopar cold air intake installed loves the cooler air, and the colors really complement the body paint. Only 14,300 miles on this one. Mint condition, all original Mopar.

Dodge Charger Dream Car


Whether young or old, people from all walks of live usually have at least one kind of dream car. Some dream of the old classic Dodge Charger that originally came standard with a 318 V-8 engine, and producing 230 hp at 4,400 rpm. Others wish for a 2006 Dodge Charger Daytona in Go ManGo! color, the modern American muscle car with its powerful 5.7 liter V-8 HEMI engine for drivers who want to get noticed.
