base
Strength:
-It is an extremely roomy and comfortable car. Took a trip in July. All 5 of us had no room or comfort problems.
Weakness:
-Of course, headlights do not have luminosity and range. I could glue a flashlight to the front of the car and have better range and brightness. For the size of the car, it should have decent headlights. Overall, this car has been a great investment. Took it down to the beach and back with no problems at all. My brother's car was too small for his trip, so they took the Intrepid. It has gone 800 miles in less than 3 weeks without having major problems. Good car for the money. Excellent for the family. Bought it back in 1998 with 25K on the odometer. It now has 75K. I expect to keep it for a very long time. I have no problems with that!

Strength:
Stylish, roomy, fun to drive, great HP.
Weakness:
None, all these people giving Intrepids a bad name should be asked if they properly maintained their car. For instance, do you change the oil at 3,000 miles or do you let it go 10,000. These ridiculous accusations about tranny problems are probably because they used generic brand fluids and not the ones specified by Chrysler.My 93 ES model has 90,000 miles and original everything except tires and muffler. Timing belts will break, transmissions will go out, and A/C problems will happen. That's unavoidable for all cars so stop whining. I'm sorry but if you're on your 3rd transmission with only 75,000 miles then you should check how bad your driving is. 15,995 used. With a promise of proper maintenance I would recommend it to anyone. Similar Products Used: Ford Taurus, Chevy Caprice. |

Dodge Intrepid
Strength:
Large interior makes it easy for a 6 foot and 5 inch guy like myself to fit in and out of and drive. Suspension feels crisp and sturdy.
Weakness:
Rear viewing is difficult. I would recommed this car to anybody who likes feel of a large luxuary car but performance of a sporty sedan. I know Intrepids of the past has flaws but this one really makes you believe that all of those problems are a thing of the past. Similar Products Used: Chevy Lumina, Toyota Camery |

Original tranny, but slips..will try Chrylsler tranny fluid. I bought this slightly used (17,000 miles) in late 94, and have been somewhat happy with it. I now have 112,000 miles and think I've gotten my $15,000 worth out of it. I'm looking at the new Chrysler 300M's. Similar Products Used: None |

Doge Intrepid ES
Strength:
Power, roominess, big trunk, built-in child seat.
Weakness:
water pump, air conditioning, transmission I paid approximately 10,000 for this car, used. That was 10,000 too much. The water pump went out on this car and because it's timing belt driven the repairs are over $500. The air conditioning is out AGAIN and that's going to be over $1000 to fix. Unfortunately, living in Texas in sometimes 100+ degree temps air conditioning is a necessity in a vehicle. This is the first and last time I will ever own a Dodge/Chrysler product. It needs another tune-up as it is now only running on 4 cylinders instead of 6. The spark-plug wires are $60 a piece. I would not recommend this car to anyone. In fact, I would recommend they run screaming in the other directions. I am definitely going back to Ford. The repairs are easier and less expensive. Similar Products Used: None |

Great looking car, lots of power, very roomy, great trunk space for all your luggage and golf clubs. Affordable and dependable. Catches a lot of eyes. Just wanna let loose until I remember its only a V-6. LOL
Weakness:
Gas mileage is a little low, but not bad. A few blind spots. Very touchy steering. Takes awhile to get used to 16,774 1 year old. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a good affordable stylish vehicle. Lots a fun to drive. Similar Products Used: Chrystler Concord |
