1987 Dodge Daytona Base review from North America
"30 mpg no matter how hard you beat on it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Pop-up light motors burned out.
Clutch needs replacing.
Door handles don't work from the outside.
Completely replaced stereo system.
General comments?
I am very surprised that the car has held up so well, considering my teenage abuse that I have put on it.
This car is quick for a 4 banger. One day I got it up to 105!
I currently drive a Jeep, but I still own this car and plan to repair and fix it up for the summer.
