----------

In the early '90s, a new generation of car enthusiasts latched on to spectacular, technology-laden sports cars from the 'Big Five' Japanese automakers. The Dodge Stealth, a captive import from Mitsubishi, was one such offering. Because these global featherweights made no qualms about catering to enthusiasts, most have been thoroughly modified and whipped hard by three or four different owners. And, as any JDM diehard will tell you, finding a Stealth that hasn't seen more than its fair share of track days is becoming increasingly difficult. Well, until now… This 9,922-mile coupe is an exceptional example of just that. Pampered and paraded its entire life, this Dodge is an impressive time capsule that'll transport you back to the days when stellar performance outshined raw horsepower!

BODYWORK/TRIM

The inaugural year of the Stealth, the 1991 model, was key in establishing Dodge as a major player in America's re-invigorated sports car market. Averaging just under 414 miles per year since rolling out of the showroom, this impressive MoPar appears to have rarely seen anything other than sunshine and warm summer days. A quick check of the car's undercarriage and suspension reveals no evidence of rust or abuse. A quick check of its VIN certifies its body has never seen any major repairs. And a quick check of our pictures confirms its dealer-installed spoiler and original Sable Black paint are both clean and appropriate.

ENGINE

In the early '90s, factory performance wars finally started heating up again. But this time, instead of Chevy, Ford and MoPar duking it out, the battle involved Japan's finest. Sure, the Viper made its debut, and the Corvette was still around, but those beasts were in a different league; and the price of admission to that league was steep. So, the Japanese automakers identified a niche for affordable sports cars, and the fight commenced. Lift this coupe's smooth hood and you'll find a 3.0 liter, naturally aspirated V6 that spins 160 horsepower into a modest 184 lb./ft. of torque. What that means is you get sparkling performance, good reliability and some pretty docile street manners in a package that's ripe for tuning. Or, better yet, maybe you leave it as is and establish a reference-grade gem for fellow Stealth enthusiasts who, eventually, will undoubtedly want to restore their well-worn classics. Aesthetically, the engine compartment in this Dodge appears to be 100% factory spec in every way. And, decked mostly in black, it's a serious looking piece with just a hint of color that adds both texture and contrast.

DRIVETRAIN

The low-mileage engine is bolted to a 4-speed automatic transmission that couples firm shifts to good fuel economy. That relaxed drivetrain spins the car's front wheels using a sophisticated suspension setup that virtually eliminates torque steer. Vented disc brakes live at all four corners. And the original exhaust has a raspy snarl that's extremely sporting, especially from outside the cockpit. Everything rolls on old school alloys that have been wrapped in 205/65R15 Goodyear Eagle GT+4s. And, as expected, everything under the car appears to be true to factory form.

INTERIOR

This coupe's jet-inspired cockpit, which presents a striking contrast to its extroverted exterior, displays hardly any signs of wear. The power-adjustable driver's seat keeps you as comfortable for quick jaunts as it does for long road trips; and the passenger and rear buckets don't appear to have been used for anything at all. In front of the driver, a dramatic black dash, which shows zero defects, is packed full of gauges and instruments that work exactly as they should. At the center of that dash, factory climate control hangs above a dealer-installed cassette player. Between the aforementioned seats, a crack-free console props a black shifter on clean carpet that's protected by thick, “STEALTH” branded floor mats. At the sides of that carpet, factory door panels, which are typically faded and ballooned from heat, present as good as new. And when you open the car's hatch, you'll find a clean cargo hold that's showroom fresh in virtually every way.
