Update 5/10/2018 – Andrew has had a lot of bites on this Dodge, but no one has pulled the trigger yet. In hopes of getting it moved on down the road, he’s lowering his asking price to $7,000 or best offer! This is one heck of a fun car for the money, so be sure to message him via the form below if you’d like to buy it.
From 5/3/2018 – While it might be newer than our typical find, this BF Exclusive is one heck of a barn find! Reader Andrew L has decided it’s time to part ways with this 1992 Dodge Spirit R/T and thought the BF Community should get first dibs. If you don’t know what a Spirit R/T is, let me just say, it’s one special turbocharged Dodge. This car is one of just 191 built and of those is one of 92 painted bright red. Andrew has owned it since 1998 and it has racked up just 53k miles since new. If you’d love to give this wicked sedan a new home, be sure to contact him via the form below.
From Andrew – 1 of 191 made (1 of 92 in red). The vehicle is equipped with the 2.2 TIII turbocharged/intercooled 4 cylinder dual overhead cam engine and is mated to the A568 Getrag 5 speed manual transmission. All options except for ABS, I do have the factory Infinity Cassette player though, currently has Infinity CD/Cassette.
I have owned this R/T since July 1998 with 51400 miles, bought from the original owner who had purchased the car new in March 1993 from Van Dyke Dodge in Warren, MI. It has always been garaged and never seen winter. The cylinder head is a Chrysler Service Contract replacement done in 1999 with all internal head parts replaced, I do have the factory cylinder head that goes with the vehicle. It has less than 300 miles since the repair was completed.
It has only been serviced at the dealership since new, all available paperwork since day one. Mobil 1 oil used from the 1st oil change on. The vehicle has been in storage since 2003. A/C will need to be converted to R-134a, but I am including NOS A/C hoses and A/C Schrader valve with the vehicle, along with a spare factory wheel. It’s all original and rust free. Contact me anytime with questions, more pictures available upon request. Asking $8500 or best offer.
If you’ve been lucky enough to experience one of these cars, then you already know what a thrill they are to drive. The turbo lag takes a bit to get used to, but there’s something intoxicating about it that just makes you want to mash the accelerator at every light. And with over 220 horsepower and 217-foot-pounds of torque, your going to want to hold that steering wheel real tight! You don’t find these cars very often, especially low mileage survivors, so we are quite excited to be featuring this one as an Exclusive! So our special thanks to Andrew for listing it with us. If you’d love to give this special car a new home, make sure to message him using the form below!
