If you want a turbo dodge get an intercooled one with a 5 speed that in good shape. They don't have good resale and youshould pick one up for around 2k. I had a 5 speed 2.8 cavi. All rusted and beat to hell but ran great. DId some research on them. Helps top end pretty good to add a cold air intake with air cone, forget about utilizing the factory cold air. Better exhaust helps too. You can mod s10 headers to fit somehow also. I've heard of people doing head work and even a few people swapping in the turbo 3.1 from the GPs. THere's your turbo car for ya, and you'd still be cruisin something from the General. Good room in the cavis too. The daytonas can be modded easy but hit a block when the 12s come in then you really gotta get serious with it. Don't think there's alot of aftermarket support like there is for the TBs either. CHeck out turbododge.com for some more info. I would say go with whatever is in better shape. As far as the dodge electrical gremlins its a crapshoot. I suppose if everything is good don't worry about it. IF something don't work then walk away. My friend had a daytona shelby and was a great car. I had a caravelle and ran wonderful. My stepdad had a new yorker and was an electrical nightmare.
