Dodge stealth...

So I was at a used car place today and they had a 1991 Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo, loaded, 5spd. Well it looked really nice, I was wondering if they are good cars and fast. Just wonderin.

AWD makes the car deadly off the line but due to its excessive weight the car does poorly in the quarter. The aftermarket is quite small for the stealth and parts are high. Insurance will also be high, look at it like this, the insurance on a regular NA stealth is higher then the insurance on my Z28 vert. IMO they are good cars just be prepared to spend good money.

good looking cars, i've driven an r/t (my boss owns one) not a big fan of the way they drive. and mechanically they're not supposed to be all that sound, that's what i've heard at least. i know my boss has taken his in several times and rarely even drives it anymore. and i know there's another one just sitting at the mechanics that we take our cars to. it's sat there for over a year.
but i do love the way the cars look.

not too bad a car, except they eat clutches and the parts are outrageously expensive

lol leave it to arch to know everything that's wrong with every car (I just got done reading the blazer thread).

on topic, they are pretty nice looking cars as long as they aren't riced out. I've seen quite a few around here riced, makes me want to ***** smack them.

you're lookin at about 14.5 in the quarter stock, turbo engines respond real good to intake and exhaust mods tho so you could drop that fairly easily w/o spending an arm and a leg
