street use certaily puts the stealth up into the supercar range even if dodge has never quite tout ed it as such the stealth comes in three trimequipment levels the es at 26695 the rt at 36115 and the rt turbo at 42235 the latter giving you porsche 930 performance at well under half the price all three are threedoor lift- backs but there are a few sub tle changes for 1993 including a new deep blue exterior hue new 17inch wheels on the rt a spoiler standard across the range an optional trunk mounted cd player and a keyless entrysecurity system the exterior remains the same as the rt and rt turbo i drove this time last year it has power bulges here there and everywhere it is festooned with intakes and outlets airdams and spoil ers thereby leaving you in no doubt as to what this car is to be used for standard engine is the 30- litre 24valve dual overhead cam v6 which comes with a fivespeed manual transmis sion and an optional four- speed automatic on the es as found in the es and rt it produces 222 hp and 201 torques driving through the front wheels that is a lot of power but in a car like the es or rt you have to remember that a steeply crowned road on ice or snow is something to be 110 bull prices save big at markham jeep eagle here are real prices without any confusing doublethis and triplethat and whatever there arent any hidden asterisks markham jeepeagle isnt afraid to

not a winter- car or at least it shouldnt without four premi um mud and snow tires and 400 pounds of added weight at the rear the twin turbo model with almost 80 more horses is on the other hand not a handful at all and thats due to all- wheel drive the dodge sys tem automatically controls power allocation to both front and rear tires for superior overall grip this ability to distribute power doubles the traction surface and makes wheel spin and tire skip less of a problem than with the frontdrive es and rt it should be noted the rt turbo comes with p24545z tires on 17inch cast aluminum wheels which are wide enough to act like snowshoes the rt for 1993 comes with standard power antenna black acrylic headlight covers heat ed rearview mirrors and a gloss black roof there is an accessory electrical outlet on the console for the radar err cigarette lighter and the radio controls have been integrated into the steering wheel some thing youll value at speed note that dodges electronic variable suspension system allows the driver to pick between sport and touring ride modes the big twin turbo now pro duces 307 torques in addition to 300 hp and is only had with a 5speed getrag manual transmission in addition to allwheel drive this car also offers powerassisted speed- dependent fourwheel steer ing you will have to experi ence yourself the rapid recov ery rate and highspeed stabili ty this imparts without the snapback found cars with fourwheel steering but just front wheel drive the secret here is power at all four cor ners standard on both rts and optional on the es is an anti- lock braking system inside there is a surprising amount of room but getting there takes a supple and thin ner the better body to get your legs under the steering wheel once there everything is easy to find and the primary instruments are right where you want them dead ahead as with all turbos there isnt much sound more of a grum ble over the right side of the firewall but that changes when you get the boost up drop a gear and push down hard with your right foot with two small turbos power comes on very fast but not with a thumpingsuddenness of a big single turbo that also means power bleed off when decelerating is much easier to deal with too looking at price to capabili ty it falls into the same cate gory as the eagle talon tsi also by chrysler and also a mitsubishi product as giving you your performance moneys worth
