1987 Dodge Lancer Sport review from North America
"Dodge's Sport/Luxury Sedan"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Air Conditioning went out right after the car was bought. The Dealer fixed it and about three years later it quit again. Never fixed.
General comments?
The 2.5L engine and the 3-speed automatic transmission are bullet proof.
The seats are very comfortable, suitable for long trips.
The stock sound system sounded great until the front and rear speakers blew out.
Chrysler/Dodge built this car to compete with some of Europe's best sport/touring sedans such as Mercedes and BMW.
I have rode in a BMW from the 80's and I think my car rides much better than the BMW.
Overall, This is a really great car. If anyone can find one in good condition and low miles, get the car, it won't let you down.
