Wonder why they say a Dodge Spirit doesn't deserve the engine it got?

I used to talk with a few Spirit owners when I frequented AllPar.com. They loved their cars.

And they may have been right about their first choice? The 2006Impala. But you notice the SS Monte wasn't mentioned.

'Cause the Monte actually still has some character, not cookie-cutter styled.

I'd take a Syclone any day...

The syclone/typhoons should not have been on that list. Those little trucks are actually a wild ride. I would love to have a syclone.

^ Maybe we should petition GM to bring them back?

A group buy of Syclones would be pretty awesome.

A guy I knew in HS had one. It was red. A 390, 4-speed car.

He sold it to an idiot a couple years younger then we were who wrapped the car around a tree.
