"A fast, dependable car for the price!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The car is a 1989 and it almost perfect condition. The engine is immaculate and in great shape with no promlems. It has around 125 000 KM on it and runs like new.

The radiator went bad and had to be replaced. Besides, that there hasn't been any serious problems with the car.

General comments?

1989 Chrylser/Dodge Dynasty 3 Litre V6. This car has an amazing amount of power for an older, fairly large family car. My father and I have done 0-60 tests on flat roads and got amazing 0-60 times at around 7 seconds. On the highway doing the speed limit, when needed to pass someone, the car's response takes no time climing up the speedometer. Although it doesn't have a high top speed, the car's acceleration surely make up for it.

Just out of curiosity: did you time the 0-60 with a G-Tech accelerometer, with a stopwatch, or just by counting "one-one thousand..."? I don't mean to sound disrespectful, but I used to have an '88 Dynasty (3.0L V6, 140hp), and using a stopwatch, its best time was 11.8 seconds. I realize that your Dynasty (being a more recent model with a larger engine) has a 30hp advantage over the '88 model, but with all due respect I don't see how 30 more hp and a bit more engine displacement could shave nearly 5 seconds from the 0-60 time.

I just wanted to say that I have an '88 Dynasty with almost 200,000 miles on it and it can still hit the 0-60 test in about 7 seconds. I love this car, and would suggest to anyone that it is worth buying. I wish they still made them.
