1997 Dodge Intrepid Base review from North America
"BMW performance for Dodge money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Intake Manifold Gasket at 80,000, Timing Belt/Water Pump at 110,000, Alternator at 95,000.
General comments?
Fast car with the big motor, I can dust lots of so-called performance cars. Especially great power at highway speeds, and great brakes too. Handling is not like other large front-drivers, it is very neutral and balanced. Good mpg, but the seats can give you a sore butt.
