2002 Dodge Stratus SLT 25

The Stratus R/T sedan, coupling Dodge's responsive 3.0 liter V6 with a five-speed manual transmission, was the first V6-manual transmission combination produced by Chrysler since the Spirit and Acclaim ended the run of the extended K-cars. The solid feel of the Stratus remains intact, and bumps are still well filtered, but there is more road feel, handling is markedly better, and, as one would expect, acceleration feels much better. The 200 horsepower 3.0 sounds quiet and polite on the standard Stratus, but sounds like a Camaro on the R/T when under heavy acceleration
