1999 Dodge Stratus SE review from North America
"A truly affordable sports sedan"
General comments?
Front seats tend to develop lint that doesn't like to be removed by vacuuming. This does not affect the seat fabric.
Suspension could be a little stiffer (like the ES model).
Excellent handling. All four tires want to stay planted.
Trunk big enough to hold a large stroller and groceries without using the back seats.
The engine is quite good. It sips fuel if you're nice to it, drinks like a Ram if you beat on it.
