What’s Red and Black and Mopar All Over? The 2013 Dodge Dart GTS 210 Tribute

What’s Red and Black and Mopar All Over? The 2013 Dodge Dart GTS 210 Tribute:

To keep the spotlight shining on the all-new 2013 Dodge Dart, Chrysler has unveiled the Mopar-massaged 2013 Dart GTS 210 Tribute. The car pays homage to the performance-oriented Dart GTS of the 1960s, according to Chrysler, and incorporates many of the 150 Dart accessories that Mopar will offer once the Dart goes on sale later this year. It was introduced alongside three other Mopar-encrusted vehicles to help celebrate the 75th anniversary of Chrysler’s in-house parts arm.

Stage 1 Appearance Package

What you see screwed to the 2013 Dart GTS 210 Tribute will be available in two staged kits starting in fall of 2012. The Stage 1 appearance package adds a new chin spoiler, side sills, rear spoiler, and rear-diffuser-style panel, all rendered in matte black. Titanium-colored, 10-spoke 18s fill each wheel well. The Stage 1 kit also features a bescooped real carbon-fiber hood, and a faux carbon-fiber roof appliqué that appears to be crafted from the same reasonably convincing stuff (let’s call it “karbon fiber”) as the hood stripes of the inaugural 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8s.

The pack brings an equally audacious interior renovation, with “Ruby Red” being the color of choice for the seats, door panels, center armrest, and map pockets. Black is the chosen hue for the stitching and the suede instrument cowl, while so-called black chrome is employed for sundry shiny trim pieces. A red-and-black, leather-wrapped steering wheel and new floor mats complete the high-contrast makeover.

Stage 2 Performance Kit

The Stage 2 performance kit includes a cold-air intake, a cat-back exhaust, and an ECU recalibration that brings horsepower for the 2.4-liter four-cylinder MultiAir2 engine from 184 to “over 210” (hence the “210” in the car’s name). Torque is unspecified; according to a Chrysler spokesman, fine-tuning is not yet complete.

It should be noted that most of the GTS 210 Tribute’s components may be purchased separately, and that Darts with either the six-speed automatic or manual transmissions can be kitted. Cars will be able to be ordered and delivered from the factory with all accessories installed. Pricing for both packages probably won’t be announced until summer, according to Chrysler.

Name That Shifter, No. 61: 1993 Honda Civic del Sol Si

Name That Shifter, No. 61: 1993 Honda Civic del Sol Si:

On Monday we presented this week’s shifter and asked you to identify the make and model of the vehicle from whence it came. We’ve had a few uncharacteristically sunny and warm days (for January) here in Ann Arbor this week, so to celebrate we decided to bring everyone some sunshine. Most of you saw the light, and identified this week’s shifter as the 1993 Honda Civic del Sol Si’s five-speed manual. The first commenter to correctly identify it was CSARO, who will receive a Save the Manuals button and sticker as a reward.

The del Sol Si pictured here is from our October 1992 issue. The del Sol rode on a shortened contemporary Civic hatchback platform, and also inherited that car’s 1.5- and 1.6-liter four-cylinder engines. The Si version got the 1.6-liter, which put out a respectable 125 hp, and could scamper to 60 mph from rest in 8.1 seconds. Of course, the del Sol’s main draw was its removable roof panel which allowed for open-top motoring. Unfortunately, the extra bracing Honda added to make up for the open lid did add some weight—the car weighed nearly as much as a four-door Civic sedan.

2012 BMW 3-Series Fuel-Economy Ratings Out, 328i Scores 36 MPG Highway

2012 BMW 3-Series Fuel-Economy Ratings Out, 328i Scores 36 MPG Highway:

The EPA just released fuel-economy ratings for the recently debuted 2012 BMW 3-series, and the numbers are very impressive—and not just for the luxury sports-sedan segment. The 328i, which is powered by a turbocharged 240-hp four-cylinder engine, is rated at 24 mpg city and 36 highway when equipped with the optional eight-speed automatic transmission. The 328i is rated at 23/34 with the six-speed manual.

These are, frankly, great numbers. You can see how the 328i’s fuel economy compares to other competitive vehicles in the chart below, but let’s compare apples to oranges for a moment: The Toyota Corolla, which has a great reputation for being frugal, is motivated by a 1.8-liter four with just 132 hp and is rated at 26 mpg city/34 highway when equipped with a four-speed automatic.

Even the turbocharged six-cylinder 335i has done well by the EPA’s yardstick. At 23 mpg city/33 highway, Bimmer’s 300-hp sports sedan betters most everything in its class. (That’s for the car with the autobox; figures for the stick-shifted 335i drop to 20/30.) The automatic 335i makes the dual-clutch-equipped Audi S4 (18/28) look like a thirsty pig in contrast, and the BMW even trounces the heavier—but diesel-drinking—Mercedes-Benz E350 BlueTec, which is rated at 21/32.

We know a diesel engine is coming to the 3-series, and a hybrid will be out soon. But with numbers like these, we have to ask whether these alternative powertrains are worth the cost—for BMW or for future consumers. Look for our complete instrumented test of the 335i soon; in the meantime, you can read our first drive of the 328i here.

2012 Chrysler 300 Mopar ’12: Celebrating Mopar’s 75th Birthday with a Worked-Over 300C

2012 Chrysler 300 Mopar ’12: Celebrating Mopar’s 75th Birthday with a Worked-Over 300C:

Chrysler’s Mopar parts division turns 75 years old this year. To celebrate, the company has begun gifting itself customized products, including the Mopar-ized Chrysler 200 Super S and Dodge Charger Redline that appeared at the Detroit auto show. Among the latest birthday presents is this limited-edition Chrysler 300, which has been built up mainly from parts available in the Mopar catalog. The 300C-based sedan will be shown off at the Chicago auto show before 500 examples go on sale this summer.

2012 Fiat 500 Stinger by Mopar to Debut at Chicago Auto Show

2012 Fiat 500 Stinger by Mopar to Debut at Chicago Auto Show:

While its primary business is offering replacement parts and fluids for Chrysler products, Mopar is of course best known among enthusiasts for peddling performance add-ons for brands such as Plymouth, Dodge, Jeep—and now, Fiat. This Mopar-fettled Fiat 500 Stinger, which showcases parts and mods available in the brand’s catalog, debuts at next week’s Chicago auto show.

The mods made to the Cinquecento are pretty standard fare when considered against Mopar cars of late. Like the Dodge Challenger 392 and Charger Super Bee with Stinger Yellow paint, this 500 is also yellow. Somewhat nonsensically, though, the paint on the Fiat 500 Stinger is simply called Giallo—that’s “yellow” in Italian. (They couldn’t have at least gone with Spina Giallo?) Other cosmetic changes from a standard 500 include black chrome around the headlights, 17-inch Abarth Hyper Black wheels, and tinted headlamp and taillight lenses. Inside, the 500 Stinger is spruced up with a black and yellow interior scheme, as well as faux suede seat inserts, a slice of carbon fiber on the dash, and a Mopar shift knob.

We figured the “Stage 2″ version of the Fiat 500 Stinger would amp up the performance. On paper, however, things aren’t promising. The only changes to the standard 500 are the addition of a cold-air intake and a freer-flowing cat-back exhaust for the 1.4-liter four; Fiat promises these mods will “deliver even more power and torque” than the standard 101 hp and 98 lb-ft. We’re thinking the increases are likely in the low-single-digit range.

Considering Fiat already has its own in-house tuning division in Abarth, this 500 is a little perplexing, although the fact that all of the parts are available via Mopar is kind of cool, we guess. That said, we think we’d just wait for the real hotted-up Fiat 500, the 160-hp Abarth.

Mopar Jeep Compass True North Concept Almost Looks Ready to Go Off-Road

Mopar Jeep Compass True North Concept Almost Looks Ready to Go Off-Road:

The Compass has always been one odd duck of a Jeep. A face lift for 2011 brought Grand Cherokee–esque styling and a “Trail Rated” version, but few choose to take the Compass or its Patriot sibling far astray of blacktop. This beefier Mopar Compass True North concept aims to change that. It previews an upcoming Mopar kit for the Compass and is one of four Mopar projects celebrating the parts division’s 75th anniversary that will be on display at the Chicago auto show.

To get a Trail Rated Compass, you have to start with an all-wheel-drive model and add the new-for-2011 Freedom Drive II Off-Road Group, which includes low-range gearing, skid plates, tow hooks, and a one-inch suspension lift. In a recent review, we described this package as “less a compliment to the Compass and more as a slight to Jeep’s Trail Rated claim.” The True North ups the ante in this area considerably with a full off-road conversion from the wheels up. Mopar fitted matte-black 16-inch wheels wrapped in knobby off-road rubber, a Rocky Road Suspensions two-inch lift kit, front and rear brush guards, and rock rails. Besides the off-road gear, the Compass’s looks are beefed up with charcoal-colored fender flares and lower door cladding, black grille and headlight surrounds, black fog-light housings, and a matte-black roof. The look is decidedly tougher and, more importantly, this Compass actually looks like it would be at home bouncing along the Rubicon Trail.

Inside, the Compass True North gets a Kicker audio system and a bevy of Mopar accessories like doorsill accents, a rear cargo tray, a shift knob, and a metal pedal kit. Trail-friendly stuff like neoprene seat covers and a custom gauge cluster on the center stack with an inclinometer further the Compass True North’s off-road cred.

The True North bits will be available as either a dealer-installed kit or individually through the Mopar parts catalog this fall; a turnkey, factory-orderable version will come later. We will now remind those looking for a true off-roader that the Jeep Wrangler still exists, needs no modifications for trail duty, and is now better than ever on-road, too.

First Drive: 2012 Mini Cooper S Roadster

First Drive: 2012 Mini Cooper S Roadster:

Remember the old joke about how to lose 10 ugly pounds? Right, cut off your head. Here’s an automotive sequel. Although this car didn’t lose weight when its football-helmet Coupe top was lopped off—it’s actually about 90 pounds heavier than its hard-shelled sibling—it definitely lost a lot of ugly.

Wheelchair for Air Travel

Wheelchair for Air Travel:

For those confined to a wheelchair, getting around onboard an aircraft can be quite challenging & usually requires assistance from one of the flight crew. Adding this element to the already frustrating flying experience can discourage users from travlling altogether. This is where the Skycare Chair wins- utilizing wheels placed under the seat rather than at the sides & a hand-operated lever system to move forward or backward. It offers independence when moving to & from the lavatory or from chair to gate.
