I guess that's a euro thing. I have no clue other than it sounds good.

RWD would be nice too.......

Hopefully they will run with the 2.4L turbo in the SRT.

So, I drove one of the new Darts today.

IT was the Ralley "Multiair" Turbo, 6 speed version.

I was NOT IMPRESSED with the car at all.


It was merely an economy car. Cheaply built. No power. My guess is the turbo is mainly for emissions.

This one also seemed to have a miss under acceleration between 2000-5500 rpm. The turbo wasn't much of anything and I couldn't hear it.

Cloth interior was uncomfortable and you could tell the entire interior was made cheap. Shifter boot looked like it was made out of foam...

All in all, very disappointing.

I think they are trying to appeal to the masses and not us who love musclecars.. Dodge is trying to make money.

I think they could have done alot worse with the latest charger. I like the body and taillights. Inside is nice to and for a 4door sedan, it kicks *** and looks mean.

I drive an 05 Magnum RT. My wife has it today. She loves it as many at her work are tree huggers and alot of priuses.

The modified exhaust and CAI make it sound baaad and she loves putting the hammer down! I leave the back seats down and have a orange and black saddle blanket back there. Looks cool.

Really? Well, it seems like it doesn't really work well for you. Apparently, Mopar has a reputation that is closely linked to the Hemi motor and the surge of the muscle car that had a prosperous and varied history. Not good to hear it have disappointed you. Indeed, you did a great review.
