I bought the car with a slight alignment problem which has caused some where to the front left tire besides that the car is in immaculate condition.
It is a wonderful first car. Plenty of trunk space and its not a "boat".The car has barely under 100,000 miles and drives like it has 2 miles on it.
I think the Dodge Shadow is a wonderful first car. I bought the car with 134,000 miles on it, and it still has that zip in the engine. When I first took it for a test drive, I knew that it was the right car for me. Some things that have gone wrong with the car is that the gas gage is broken, and something with the front tires is bad, but overall, this is a great first car; and for only 300 dollars, you can't go wrong!
