This example is one of 7,152 Daytona Turbo Z models made in 1987 and was built on May 7, 1987 at Chrysler’s Fenton, Missouri assembly plant, which was located a couple of miles from the showroom. This is a one family owned car with 96,584 original miles and is sold on actual mileage Missouri title.This car’s custom high quality metallic paint is in overall excellent condition and has chrome illusion front-end flames on the nose and hood. The paint looks stunning in the sunlight and the overall quality is much better than the 1980’s factory Dodge paint. The boxy is solid and straight, the engine bay is immaculate, the cargo area is in very good shape, the battery appears new and the body-colored bumpers fit tightly to the body and echo the rest of the exterior’s condition.This Daytona is shod with radial tires, size 225/50R15 and each one is wrapped around American Racing three-spoke black and silver wheels. The wheels and tires are in very good order and the car is included with the original factory wheels and steering wheel.Under the hood is a 2.2L turbocharged, intercooled four-cylinder engine with multiport fuel injection (MPI). The engine is linked to a five-speed manual transmission (code A555) with Getrag gears. Driver convenience features are lengthy – air-conditioning but is inoperable, power steering, power brakes, cruise control, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, tilt steering column and intermittent wipers.Inside, the gray cloth interior looks great, particularly the low-back front buckets and rear seats, carpet and headliner. The aftermarket steering wheel and rearview mirror add whimsical touches while the inner door panels and instrument panel echo the rest of the interior’s theme but the stock steering wheel is included. There’s even a turbo boost/vacuum gauge. The center console and floor-mounted shifter are in good, original order. A factory AM/FM stereo with cassette completes the interior.For 1987, the Daytona was restyled externally and featured pop-up headlights. New in 1987 was a Shelby Z trim level with an available Chrysler developed Turbo II intercooled version of the 2.2 L Chrysler K engine, as well as a heavy-duty A555 transaxle with Getrag gears. Among the optional equipment included a leather interior, eight-way power enthusiast driver's seat (with mechanical thigh and lumbar controls), digital instrument cluster and a 12-button trip computer (with instant fuel ratings as well as trip averages and estimated travel times).Competition to this Dodge in 1987 included Buick Skyhawk Turbo Coupe, Chevrolet’s Camaro Z-28, Ford’s Mustang GT, Honda’s Prelude Si, Isuzu’s Impulse Turbo, Mazda’s RX-7, Mercury’s Capri RS, Merkur’s XR4Ti, Mitsubishi’s Starion ESI-R, Nissan’s 240SX, Nissan’s 300ZX 2+2, Pontiac’s Firebird Trans Am and Sunbird GT Turbo and Toyota’s Supra Turbo.Dodge marketed the Daytona as a front-wheel drive alternative to such rear-wheel drive stalwarts as the Camaro, Mustang and Firebird, touting its turbocharged four-cylinder as a better alternative to their larger V-8 motors while delivering more miles per gallon yet providing almost as much power in a lighter package.If you’re a Mopar fan, someone who likes cars from the 1980s or if you’re just looking for a fun, sporty coupe with retro lines and options, this is the car for you.
