1993 Dodge Shadow Reviews - Page 7 of 9

There is some parts of the top that are tearing.

The headlight covers are absolutely awful! I can barely see the road in front of me when my low beams are on, and when my high beams are on it looks like everyone else's low beams/

Replacing the left front fender was a major hassle.

The Shadow ES is quite quick for its small size and engine.

Comfortable seats make for a smoother ride, and being a tall person, it has decent leg and head room.

Handles very well, especially turns.

Well I broke the e-brake cable after pulling it up around a turn (my fault).

I lost the exhaust on a bumpy road while doing 140 km/h (my fault).

Oxygen sensor went for some unknown reason.

I went through a pair of tires in a weekend (my fault).

It started leaking oil after rally racing (my fault).

Head gasket went after racing one night (my fault), so I replaced that and redid all the valves and cleaned the head.

The radio broke unknown reasons, so I replaced it with a Kenwood CD player.

The wheel bearing went because they just wear out.

I blew a headlight, so I replaced that.

The hood started to peel a bit, so I painted it, and put on a nice flashy bug deflector, matching headlight covers and vent visors for my windows, then I tinted the windows and put on California style rims and 60 series tires, and wrote it off...

All in all, it was a great car, and I recommend it to anyone, and anything that mechanically broke on it was my fault. I loved that car, and it was a good car..

It was a good car.

Easy on gas.

Could take a beating.

Wasn't extremely fast.

The suspension was hard and stiff.

I felt comfortable in it, and I'm 5'8" and 180 lbs.

Radiator blew at 88,000 miles.

Thermostat also had to be replaced.

Fuel Filter clogs frequently.

Excellent cargo room for its size.

It handles nimbly and is easy to park.

Rides smoothly on the highway.

Everything still works even with more than 100,000 miles on the odometer.

Exhaust leak when I bought the car.

Wiring problems with the right blinker and tail light. (have heard of others with the same problem)

Car handles like a champ, and its pretty damn quick, but it looses all its balls at 80 MPH!

Popped a new CD player in for the tape deck, replaced the stock speakers with high quality, tinted the windows, xenon headlights and its ready to go.

Very little has gone wrong with this car in the one and a half years I've owned it.

I've put about 32,000 kilometres on the car in that one and a half years I haven't had to put too much money into it.

I've had to replace the muffler, but that was my own fault. I back into a snow bank that was a mix of snow and ice.

I had to replace a ball joint a year after I bought it.

It'll be going to the garage next week to get a bushing in the front driver's side shock replaced.

Other than that the only money I've put in it is for regular oil changes.

This has been a great first car for me and I would recommend it to anyone that is interested in buying a cheaper car on the market.

When you do need parts for it, they're very cheap to obtain. Every garage carries Dodge parts!!

I drive this car hard. It's driven as if it's a race car and it hasn't let me down once.

It's a shame this car was replaced with the Dodge Neon. Dodge had a truly great car and they threw it away!!

I treat this car as if it's my baby, I challenge anyone to find an inch of rust on the body.

It looks GREAT for a 93 car. It's clean inside and out. Looks the same as the day I bought it.
