I love my Stealth!

Review

Although I haven't had it that long, I have quickly fallen in love with this car. Before, the only things I'd ever shifted were Suzuki Samurais and Nissan pickups. This was an easy adjustment, it's so agreeable! It has every option available that year, so I'm a little spoiled! I'm only 17, and I know it's the fastest, prettiest thing in the school parking lot. It gets the attention of a lot of rubberneckers!

Favorite Features

My pop-up headlights and antenna! But most of all, my grayish-white pearl factory paint. Still looks great, and really turns the heads! The seats are awesome, but I really love my Infiniti 6x9s and Mitsubishi 6 cd changer! I also like my K&N filtercharger!

Suggested Improvements

I would prefer some 5 spoke wheels.

Review

I've always wanted one so when I had the chance to get one I had to get it. Once in it I experienced overwhelming joy as I pushed on the pedal. Its handling and performance are all that I expected it to be.

Favorite Features

I must agree with previous remarks. It does have a fighter jet feel in the cockpit. My favorite features are its aggressive stance, its spacious front seats and how everything is in your reach.

Suggested Improvements

The placement of the cupholder is a downside. Also the ashtray (you smokers know what I mean) not liking the whole break your wrist to die out your ciggarette! And yes as remarked it shouldve came with a radar detector..it is a police magnet! Overall its a great car for the money.

The Stealth is an Awesome Car!

Review

The car drives like a dream. Everybody who gets in it all say that it rides like a Cadillac. The driving is extremely fun, very comfortable, and everywhere I go people turn their heads. The car has been great and reliable, and the performance is really good. Its DOHC 24 valves does its job. This is the best year of all the Stealths since it is the last year of that body style also.

Favorite Features

I love all the options in this car, from the ECS, climate control, 5 speed stick, to all the electronics in it. This car is/was ahead of its time!

Suggested Improvements

I only wish it was more popular, and cheaper and easier to find parts. I do wish that it had more power, but, that is what the aftermarket is for anyways.

'93 is the best year of all stealths. Everywhere I go people turn their heads. The car isnt the fastest but, it is a fast car, plus there are a lot of tune ups that you can do. The interior is very comfortable, and the use of the hatchback and folding down seats are great for anything. The feel of the car's power, and handling with a 5 speed is awesome.

Favorite Features

Stereo-6 cd changer + 6 speakers, 5- speed, body, Interior, Firestorm Red paintjob, (pretty much everything!)

Suggested Improvements

Wished they never stopped making them!!

Performance and Reliability

Review

Bought this car used. Had 90K on it. Now, at 199k it runs just as good as the day I bought it. Do scheduled maintenance and you'll have no problems. The performance of this car has literally saved my life on several occaisions. Handling and braking are unmatched. Fuel economy is great. Even at 85 mph the care gets 28 mpg. This fall I'm retiring it and restoring it. It's too great a car to ever get rid of.

Favorite Features

Speed, fuel efficiency, stereo. Braking & steering. Highly reliable.

Suggested Improvements

Build them again. Please!

1993 Stealth ES--Ultimate Sleeper

Written by: StealthDriver on 02/01/2005

Vehicle

1993 Dodge Stealth 2 Dr ES Hatchback

Review

This is one of the best cars ever produced. Its also one of the best sleepers. A little heavy for a sports car but makes up for it in accleration, cornering, and all around style. I have owned two of them and I wish that parts were more common and that people would pay for what they are worth. From here on out the price will continue to go up like old Camaro's and Mustangs. The one thing that I dont like is how much a timing belt and water pump cost to change (600-1000 bucks!). With an exhaust, chip and turbo upgrade the R/T tt will beat Vipers, Corvettes, and just about anything else.

Favorite Features

Exterior Design, Acceleration, Cockpit Layout, Twin Turbo's, Ride control.

Suggested Improvements

Make the interior better and remake it, there will be nothing like them ever. Change the seating so its not that much of a problem to get in and out.

Stealth Twin Turbo, The One to BUY!

1993 Dodge Stealth 2 Dr R/T Turbo 4WD Hatchback

Review

I have owned my pristine 1993 Stealth RTTT for 7 years. The car is EXCEPTIONAL! TIMELESS styling, 300+hp, 0 to 60 in 5.6 and 27mpg crusing at 75mph! The only thing it lacks is a decent cup holder (that accounts for the 9 in interior design). This car is mechanically bulletproof as long as you follow the scheduled maintenance. The cabin is beautiful, like a jet fighter and seats are comfortable on long trips. If your looking for a car that will put a smile on your face EVERY TIME you get behind the wheel, then look no further! One word of caution, only buy one that has been well maintained and not beat into the ground. It took me 3 years to find min

Favorite Features

HUGE trunk space with back seats down, mechanically reliable, FAST and furious. An exceptional radar detector is a MUST for this car because it is a "ticket magnet", in 7 years of driving I have not gotten 1 ticket and that includes several 150mph runs just to "check her out" the cabin

Suggested Improvements

A decent cupholder, (but for the life of me I do not know where you would put it). The car should have also come from the factory with an exceptional radar detector as "standard equipment," see above for the reason :o)

Review

Everyone turns their head while looking, but no one wants to pay anything for it. My '93 is slowly starting to fade, and problems are coming up everywhere. But has treated me great up until now.

Favorite Features

Looks, and power

Suggested Improvements

Mechanical build, and wish they didn't have the cheap base , gives a bad name to the car.

93', The Best Year

Written by: you dont need toknow on 07/22/2003

Vehicle

1993 Dodge Stealth 2 Dr R/T Hatchback

Review

This is a great car for its affordable price. Everyone on the street always stares when your drivingand many people do not know the car and inquire if the car is brand new. The stealth exterior seems to be dateless.Now that many stealths have high mileage, are rusty, or are wrecked stealths that are near perfect condition with low mileage are collectors items and will fetch high prices. The car is comfortable in the front, the back seats are meant for smaller people.

Favorite Features

This was the first full year that the moonroof,which is rare on the first generation stealth, was offered.

Suggested Improvements

I wish repairs and insurance werent so high.Also the passenger seat should have been powered too.
