Overview
From 1979 to 1982, the Dodge Omni offered a Charger package. The Omni Charger, as it was called, featured a 2.2-liter, 4-cylinder engine rated at 85-horsepower and included hood and side scoops for ornamentation only.
In 1983, the Dodge Charger returned as its own car, but very different from the classic Charger of old. Now a 3-door hatchback, it was built on an Omni platform with a Peugeot engine. It came as a standard 1.7-liter, 63-horsepower, or the 2.2-liter in either 3-speed auto tran or 4 and 5-speed manual. Midway through 1983, a 1.6-liter, 62-horsepower replaced the 1.7-liter, for some reason. The 2.2 sported a rear spoiler and side skirting.
Also midway through the year came the Dodge Shelby Charger, designed by Carroll Shelby of Shelby Cobra fame. A redesigned nose, suspension, and stronger brakes and more responsive steering hinted at the Charger's racing heritage, enhanced by the 15-inch aluminum wheels and silver and blue two-tone coloring inside and out. A higher compression ratio meant a boost in horsepower to 107. Perhaps not the dragster we all knew and loved but certainly an aesthetic improvement over the base model.
Experts generally liked the new Charger, particularly its smooth engine feel, though criticism focused on the awkward and sluggish gear shifting and the lack of horsepower.

The first car purchased "for" me. Shouldn't been, however. Spent almost 1/2 of my senior year of high school in the shop. Went through two engines, three transmissions, and a ton of break pads. It was red, but it was a sheep in wolf's clothing. I was so glad to trade this in on the CRX Si.

This car was my first car, it was either this or a senior class ring. I thought i'd get more mileage from a car then a ring, so.... The Car did what it was supposed to do. It was owned by a fire marshall before me, and the gearing I BELIEVE was futzed with. While it had decent pickup, it didn't have a lot of power for a 2.2 Lt car. It usually had to be downshifted on big hills 1 or 2 gears. Where it made up for that was it's top speed. The gearing allowed for something over 130. Never quite hit the top end - there were no roads long enough for it to get to the top speed. After a accident in a blizzard, i had to have a new hood and front grill put on. The only replacement at the time that could be found was a white Plymouth Duster... so I then had a VERY getto car for the remainder of it's life. It was full of repair needs, but got great gas mileage. I could usually go to Boston (from Burlington Vermont), to and from, on 1 tank of gas. There's NO car out there anymore that can really claim the same. Thank you petroleum industry.

'83 Dodge Charger 2.2, was the best car I ever owned. It was red with black vinyl trim. It took a beating and kept on going. It could handle high water, half way up the door, without stalling out. I made a great work vehicle. I would love to get my hands on one today, and restore it. You could drive it until it couldn't be repaired any longer.
