“On the way to Chicago, he felt something off with the breaks.”

Yes - the FiST was like 17,000 $ USD loaded up . So if its going to cost more than that - it needs to be faster./ 

Or a Toyota Sienna?

You mean it doesn’t look grotesque and exaggerated, and that isn’t enough because the car has to communicate excitement if they put in a low revving turbo 4 and numb electric steering. I appreciate your point of view.

Wow, your Dodge Stealth was probably the un-stealthiest Dodge Stealth in the history of Dodge Stealths.
