For $2750, This 2004 Dodge Intrepid RT Lets You Cop Out - Jalopnik
When it comes to cars, the Police Package usually means that every important aspect of the ride has been cranked up a notch. Today’s Nice Price or Crack Pipe Intrepid is just such a car, but we’ll have to see if its condition and price will have you saying. Its price was too, earning the custom coupe a satisfying 55% Nice Price win, the only one of last week. The ad claims the car has a 250-horse 3. 5, however Allpar pegs that engine at 242-bhp and a healthy 248 lb. -ft of torque, the latter made available at a low 3,950 RPM. Transmission duties are handled by 4-speed 42LE, and this car looks to be a column shift despite having bucket seats. Other aspects of the car - suspension, cooling, electrical and brakes - are all upgraded with heavy-duty elements on the Police Package. Oh and a word about the brakes on these cars. the early ones had a rep for catching on fire when called to task too frequently. That shouldn’t be an issue with this one, as Chrysler instituted a fix, but does add to the car’s lore. Other interesting things about the Intrepid are that the design goes back to the ‘80s, and was used for a Lamborghini show car called the Portofino back when Chrysler owned the Italian brand.
