Introduced in 1995, the Dodge Avenger is a 2-door sports coupe that boasts a surprisingly roomy interior for a comfortable ride, yet exterior styling and acceleration that doesn't let you forget its sporty nature.
The 1995 Avenger replaced the old Dodge Daytona and is available in both a base and ES model. The base model is a standard 2.0 liter, 140-horsepower four-cylinder engine, whereas the ES is a 2.5 liter V6 155-horsepower. While the base model is available in both 5-speed and automatic, the ES was only offered as an automatic and is difficult to modify. Fuel economy is about 20/29, but with a 16-gallon tank on the ES, that gets you pretty far.
While both versions offer nice handling and excellent braking, the V6 model obviously offers a smoother, quieter ride with better acceleration. Drivers praise the 1995 Avenger's roominess in both the front and back seats, which comfortably fit four, and its sporty exterior and gas mileage. Complaints range from multiple repairs and transmission problems to a noisy ride.

no dislikes very good gas milage very smooth ride can find many aftermarket parts for it not sure what else to say its prolly one of the best cars ive bought so far breaking is good accelerates quick handeling is awsome.
February 2, 2011I like my car. I bought it two months ago for 900 bucks. So far, I've only had to fix one rear strut on the car, and that was my fault. I hit a pothole. The Part was only 45.00 to fix. My car is all leather, and I'm not looking foreward to driving it in the snow, but I am glad I bought it. It's the best car I've ever owned.
December 8, 2009would never buy another one but it was fun when it ran. 0-60 depended on how well you could hit the gears. huge back seat for a 2 door and lots of truck space, it looked like a dodge neon on steriods,dont know much else to say just trying to get my forty words

November 30, 2011everything that you don't want to go wrong went wrong, and to replace it was HORRIFIC! the radiator rusted and it ALWAYS over heated, one of the fans broke and cost almost $600 to replace, the head gasget blew, burned ALOT of oil, the sway bars broke in two and to fix them was impossible due to rust... the interior would break all of the time. the windows were horrible becuase they lacked a frame.....
