1989 Dodge Daytona ES review from North America
"Great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The fuel injector froze up one morning when it was 10 below zero.
General comments?
This car is simply amazing. The seats are the most comfortable seats in any car I have driven. They are like lazy boy recliners. The back seats how ever are so small a five year old would be uncomfortable. If you put the back seats down however, the trunk is bigger then a station wagons, I fit a twin size mattress back there, and it slept two just fine. The pick up is as slow as my grandma's wheel chair, but once you get it off the line, it zips. The speed meter goes up to 125, I hit 120 on a trip to lake George, and I'm sure it has enough power to bury the needle. The gas millage is great in this beast, the Daytona has great looks, from its three piece spoiler to its huge extended hood.
