Price Has Dropped to $12,000

I am not looking for a discussion. I am not looking to part out. I do not have parts for sale. I offer the truck as a whole. I am not interested in trades.



I have had this truck since new and have been a part of every single wrench turned on this vehicle and did 75% or so myself. When I bought it I figured I would own it until it crapped out...well I am throwing in the towel early. The truck still runs great; I am looking into something with a little more all around capability that fits my needs. I just wish there was something that is also as entertaining as this truck on the market (I test drove a low mileage Ram SRT-10 this past weekend and was bored and so was my wife - no joke). Lucky for you, you have an opportunity to own a VERY entertaining truck that is well loved.

All offers welcome
Asking: $12,000 (KBB puts it as $11,750 value without the supercharger)
-Title in hand

  • 2005 Chevrolet Colorado Xtreme Extended Cab
  • Automatic Transmission
  • 82,400 1-owner miles
  • Supercharged and intercooled with Wheel 2 Wheel Rotrex supercharger kit
  • Dynoed at 306 whp in 2008 with 8 psi - now up to 9.5 psi

  • Pontiac Grand Prix leather and alcantara seats
  • Roll pan with Xtreme filler panels
  • Aftermarket stereo equipment with JL Audio Cleansweep, Powered Sub and Polk speakers (stock 6 disc head unit)

  • Brake controller

  • Spark plugs replaced and now are NGK Iridiums (have a spare set on hand)
  • Transmission and rear end fluid changed at 40,000 mile intervals
  • Supercharger oil drained and refilled yearly as prescribed

Condition:
  • This truck is in excellent mechanical condition - I wanted my supercharged truck to last so I did not skimp on anything that needed mechanical attention
  • There are cosmetic defects typical of a car this age that is a daily driver (rock chips, scratches, etc) except as noted below
  • The passenger rear fender flare has a scrape
  • I think this is normal but never checked; the factory paint, especially on the hood, has small cracks visible at an angle
  • Scrape on front bumper driver side.

Special Note:
Anyone who buys from the forum also gets a JTR long tube header, a 3" cat back cherry bomb exhaust as well as a combo narrow-wideband a/f sensor and gauge. All brand new in box.

Not looking for a discussion, just looking to sell. Shoot me a pm if you'd like to put up an offer.

GLWS, purrdy truck there.

Quick question...did you have to modify the GP seats to fit? I know the H3 seats pop right in but did you have to make a bracket for those? Thanks!

There is a thread here with a how to. The short answer is yes. You have to modify the GP seat a little to fit the frame rails.

Under hood shots?
Meant to add one, my bad. See below.
Lots of detail in that thread. Here is an updated engine bay shot...a little dirty though:

"No discussion" means I am only looking to spend time answering questions for people seriously considering putting in an offer. This is not a truck one could duplicate as the parts are no longer for sale and I am not looking to part it out.

AFAIK this is the only customer kit installed on a Colorado, there are a few installed on H3s across the world (per the maker of the kit at the time of purchase). There should be an R&D truck which is a black z85 or z71 out there somewhere (used in the instruction manual) but I have never seen it anywhere but the instruction manual.

glws, awesome truck!

Sending a pm.
Re: 2005 Supercharged I5 Xtreme / Ex Cab / >300whp

I'd like to know where to get the the filler panels for Xtreme as well :)
Re: 2005 Supercharged I5 Xtreme / Ex Cab / >300whp

What brand are those wheels?

That's what I was wondering too. I've tried looking at the pics of the truck too, but the website won't let me look at them.

Will send a pm with what I sent the other guy. For anyone else wondering, the basics are that the filler panels no longer are for sale; you will have to fab them yourself.

...but the website won't let me look at them.
When I am logged out of Photobucket I can see everything fine. I have to click each thumbnail individually but that shouldn't be a problem. What isn't working?

Relevant question and answer from elsewhere:

Question, and you don't need to answer if you don't want : just how easy is it to access the air filter in that location ?
Looks to me like I would be slicing my fingers easing it out of that corner.
(I'm asking as I am pondering some mods under the hood that might move a few things into the corners more too.)

Thanks. I will go ahead and answer since it will help the next owner.

Removal of the air filter and MAF for maintenance with this setup is incredibly easy. One hose clamp and removal of the MAF harness gives you access to both for cleaning (one more hose clamp separates the two). Since I can remove the two together (the entire straight section) it isn't hard to angle out at all. Removing the air filter by itself would be very tough since the filter has been maximized for fit. The stock filter with this kit was smaller.

I can even get to the throttle body with removal of one more hose clamp and two more 11mm bolts holding the intercooler (in addition to the throttle body bolts). The result is that you can have the air filter drying, the MAF and throttle body cleaned and most everything put back together except two hose clamps in 30 minutes. The next morning I re-oil my air filter then put back together the last two hose clamps. A few less steps gives you access to the ignition coils and spark plugs. Maintenance is easy.

So I take it that you're refusing to answer my question?
