Hurricane, Utah, United States

Hurricane, Utah, United States

Completely stock and original, well maintained, enthusiast owned (he even bought another one), two long-term owners, 1991 Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo AWD with a hole in the #6 piston (we scoped it). It runs and drives and can be driven safely onto a trailer. It even comes with the original window sticker (see pics). Back in the day these were referred to as the Swiss Army Knife of cars because they had everything... 320 horsepower, twin turbos, all wheel drive, etc. As the years have gone by they are now becoming collector cars (especially original, unmodified examples like this one).

Running gear is in great shape other than the hole in the piston. It was a very well cared for daily driver until then. Brakes work great, it shifts smoothly, steers well and does everything the way you would expect from a well maintained, enthusiast owned Stealth R/T Twin Turbo. Engine does not overheat. There is no oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil. Repair the engine and you've got an awesome ride.

Exterior is completely stock and original including paint. Body is in excellent, rust free, accident free condition. It has some pitting on the hood from freeway driving. Paint has faded slightly on some of the red and black plastic surfaces (see pics). I think a good wax and buff would take care of a lot of it. That's the downside of spending most of it's life in a dry, desert climate. Tires are newer Michelin's.

Interior has aged well. Leather (a very desirable option) is good other than portions of the front seats which could stand to be dyed. Driver side left lumbar support is the only real upholstery flaw and it's confined to one panel (see pics). Interior components work properly other than AC (fan blows but it needs to be charged). Defrost vent grills have minor heat-related warpage. All gauges work. SRS light stays on. Stereo is the original and desirable high-end Option Group B unit and works well.

This is a great, all original Stealth Twin Turbo. If you are mechanically inclined this could be a very cost-effective way to get into one of the best Japanese GT cars of the 1990's. I hope it finds a home with someone who is a fan of AWD Twin Turbo Stealth's and her Mitsubishi sister-ship, the 3000GT VR4.

My name is Chris and I am happy to answer your questions. Please call me at 435-669-1470. I also have additional pictures that show every nook and cranny in detail. Send me your email address and I'll get them to you. This sweet 1991 Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo AWD is located in the dry, desert community of Hurricane, Utah (a little over 100 miles north of Las Vegas). Thank you very much for your interest.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).

Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car is ready to burn rubber at SEMA [w/video]

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

The Dodge Charger R/T is all set to rocket down the drag strip in NHRA Funny Car competition with a completely redesigned body debuting at this year's SEMA Show. While only the front decal, side scallops and rear logo really signal this racer as a Charger, that doesn't take away from its promise of hitting absolutely ludicrous speeds.
The engineers' biggest tweak to the body was moving the cockpit further back. This created more clearance under the hood, and the change came with added advantage of giving the driver better visibility out of the car. Composites like Kevlar also helped make the one-piece shell even lighter, while not sacrificing strength.
The new design has already undergone extensive time in the wind tunnel and real-world runs to make sure that none of the changes negatively impacted the aerodynamics. With those tests out of the way, the Charger R/T Funny Car will have the first chance to truly prove itself in NHRA competition at the 2015 Winternationals from February 5-9 at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.

Dodge Viper recall requires small-handed mechanics

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

It has been over a year since Chrysler first announced its recall of 3,660 2003-2004 Dodge Vipers because the airbag could suddenly deploy. The repairs are finally beginning, and it appears to be a nightmare for mechanics.
According to the automaker's filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag control module can fail, which causes the bag or the seatbelt pre-tensioner to deploy without warning. It took over a year to design the new parts, according to The New York Times. However, Chrysler finally has a new "jumper harness with an in-line diode filter circuit" ready to fix the problem.
The dilemma now moves to the mechanics who have to actually install the part. A 47-step guide from Chrysler explains that the procedure should take about two hours. It's not an easy job, though. Most of the dashboard has to be taken apart, and the instructions include this helpful bit of advice: "Installing the jumper harness and filter box into position is not an easy task. Patience, perseverance, and small hands are required." We wish the best of luck to them. The fix comes just in time for the Vipers to enjoy the summer sun.
