The recently released Dodge Dart has been a simmering topic of conversation for a lot of people. In order to build off of the buzz the car is generating, Mopar has gone out of its way to pay homage to the Dart GTS of the 60’s, building a program that it has affectionately called the Dart GTS 201 Tribute.
The car is part of a four-vehicle assault from Chrysler’s
resident aftermarket company, which released the vehicles as part of
their 75th anniversary. For the Dart GTS 210 Tribute, Mopar prepared
two tuning packages, beginning with the Stage 1 Appearance Package. As
the name suggests, this program centers on a plethora of aerodynamic
upgrades on the Dart, featuring a new chin spoiler, new side sills, a
rear spoiler, and a rear-diffuser-style panel, all of which have been
finished in fine matte black texture. In addition, the Stage 1 program
also comes with a carbon fiber hood, an applied carbon fiber roof
appliqué, and a new set of 18" 10-spoke titanium wheels.
Interior
modifications are also part of the Stage 1 program, consisting of
seats, door panels, map pockets, and a center armrest that have been
finished in a Ruby Red color with black serving as a perfect contrast on
the stitching and the suede instrument cowl. Meanwhile, a
red-and-black, leather-wrapped steering wheel and new floor mats finish
off the rather audacious looking interior space of the Dart.
Moving
into the engine - that’s the Stage 2 Performance Kit - Mopar added a
slew of performance enhancing equipment, including a new cold-air
intake, a cat-back exhaust, and a remapped ECU. These changes bring the
Dart’s output emanating from its 2.4-liter four-cylinder MultiAir2
engine from 184 horsepower to something Mopar calls “over 210,” which
explains why ’210’ is part of the car’s designation.
According to Chrysler, pricing for the two packages will be made available later this year, so stay tuned.
