Dodge started building 2013 Dart GTs last week at the Belvidere Assembly Plant in Belvidere, Illinois, and they are available now for ordering. Base MRSP is $20,995, not including destination. The Dart GT is powered by the 184 horsepower 2.4-liter Tigershark four cylinder and is available with either a six-speed manual or six-speed auto. 18-inch aluminum wheels and perforated Nappa heated leather seats are standard. The GT also features a sport suspension, unique front fascia, LED taillamps, integrated dual exhaust, an 8.4-inch touchscreen and a 7-inch TFT. It’s not the Dart SRT4 that many people have been waiting for, but it’s still a cool little package. More pics after the jump. Via Chrysler
I’ve been following this model for quite sometime and was wonder if I should trade my car in for this one? I currently own an SXT model with 1.4 multiair turbo. I love my car, and planned to upgrade the engine a bit. Should I stick with what I got, or go for the new BY?
I would stick with the one you have. I own the SXT Dart special edition but I got the auto when I should have gotten the 6 speed. I had the SRT4 Caliber. 120000km on it and the engine blew. The car was well taken care of and the engine went. I have to say I miss my SRT big time! but my Dart is a Rally with the SXT logo has all the features the Rally has. I’m going to make it mine just like I did my SRT4.
