Looks like your driveway.  Looks like a murdered Dart.  Logical conclusion:  you got tired of all those Hummer jokes.  :)

 

Nope. :P

 

I actually got tired of pre-bankrupt GM's build quality every time I made a gear change. My Hummer had a squeaky ass shifting from third to fourth. And second to third. And fourth to fifth. And first to second.

 

Sweet Looking little ride! Time to performance tune it. :P

 

Thanks.

 

Aside from tinting the windows, I don't think I'll be doing much of anything to this car at all.

 

Which engine?

 

This Dart has the 2.4 Tigershark. I hated it in the 2015 Chrysler 200 with the nine-speed automatic, but it's terrific in the Dart with the Fiat six-speed manual. Go figure.

Less weight to lug around.

Here's what's really suprising, though: it's only about a 200 lbs. difference. The '15 200 is 3,473 lbs. and my '15 Dart Blacktop is 3,242 lbs.

 

Diabolical and fuel efficient? Nice buy!

 

Thanks!

 

It is true. The Dark Side does have cookies. Well, it's actually rum cake but who's really paying attention?
