1992 Dodge Stealth ES review from North America
"Awesome car if in good condition"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car has been a cash guzzler for me my brother and my dad, my brother bought this car 2.5 years ago from a used car dealership and we had no time to take the car in for a saftey inspection so we said we would buy the car on the spot and do the inspection later, the test drive was full of burnin rubber and high speeds, we eventualy got the car in for a inspection and found out that the undercarriage was completely rusted and there was a few other problems like the front struts brakes and a few others I can't quite recall. my dad since haveing the car in his name he took the car off my brothers hands and put $1500 dollars into the car I bought the car for half of the orignal price and now I have to put a lot of money into this car. Im only 16 and takin on this challenge but i am up for the experience
General comments?
This car is a rocket and it only has the weakest engine the stealth's came with the SOHC engine, this is a very tight handling car especially with the new front suspension, needs new tires though and paint is faded from being out in the sun a lot. the top speed me and my brother reached in the car was 234 kmph, but I have bought new performance parts also so it should hit about 250 right now it is also the 5 speed and I plan on doing a thorough rebuild on anything that needs it on this car. the rear seats are more so child bucket seats.
