Pros

Held up well, but I got rid of it when it topped 90,000 miles as I was afraid of how well it would hold up. The 3.7L engine provided good power, it rode very well and was a very comfortable car.

Cons

You have to replace the battery via the right front wheel well, and it's a pain in the neck! If you buy it a battery, buy it from someone who advertised a free install!

Almost A Really Cool Car! — I liked this car. I bought it when the Nissan Stanza died, it was 2 years old. Cloth seats which I preferred for the Texas summers, good controls, drove well and had style.

Reliable And Trustworthy — I love the reliability, I don't like how big it is, it's difficult to park. Also I bought it used with a lot of rust and body damage, so it's not pretty. But it has almost 300,000 miles and I expect it to run until at least 350,000!

It Is A Well Built Car, All Around. — I loved these cars when they first came out! It is fully loaded. An ES.. That makes it extra special. LOL.. It is fun to drive because of the auto stick option. I can take it out of automatic on back roads and just test it on every corner. It holds the road very well. It has leather interior. And a great body. It is in very good shape, considering the yr.

My '98 Dodge Intrepid — Just bought it. Love the gas mileage, the look, the power, it's comfortable for a family of four. It's only a '98, so we got it at a very reasonable price. Looks like we will have this vehicle for a long time to come. This is our second Dodge, as we also have a '99 Durango.

it was fast, fun, a rush even for a family car lol

Cons

2.7L engine was too small wish i had the 3.5

Soo Much Fun... I Miss It — i loved this car.. i had a K & N cold air intake with ram air hook up. Dual catback exhaust with 2 obx 3.5" starights that made it growl and you could hear me coming from a mile away. but it came with silencers for normal driving if i wanted to focus on my music. lol

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

I Just Love This Car ! — I've reached the 300 000km with mine and she still goes like the first day I drove out of the dealer. I never had any MAJOR failure(as long as you've got the 3.2L you're good). Oh of course I've put some pieces on it but who never did uh?

Durable And Not Dumb Looking For A Beater — Handles well, even in winter for a sedan. Have had car for 11+ years, hasn't needed any big part replacements such as transmission except brakes. Interior has held up very well . Also has pretty decent miles p considering it's age

College Kid Car — Its a great kid car. HUGE trunk. I was able to pack my life into that car for traveling from home to college. Great gas mileage as well for a big car. I was able to get 29-31 highway. That is with a 3.2 V6 @ 230hp
