Dodge Mirada Parts
If you’re going to buy a Dodge Mirada part from one of your local auto parts shop, more often than not, what you’ll hear is the question “What is a Mirada?” Well we can’t blame them because the Dodge Miranda is indeed a rare car. It was last manufactured in 1983 and at the end of its production year, only 5,120 were sold. This is way below the sales of Ford for the Edsel, which counts at 110,000, and of AMC for the Gremlin, which counts at 300,000.
The Dodge Mirada is a hardtop coupe manufactured by Chrysler from 1980 to 1983. It is based on Chrysler’s J body platform and replaced the Dodge Magnum. It is identical with two other cars that Chrysler also manufactured at the same era, the Chrysler Cordoba and the Chrysler Imperial. It came with three engine options: an 85 hp Slant Six, a 130 hp 318 V8 and a 150 hp 360 V8.
By present standards, the performance of the Dodge Mirada can be rated as poor. The car, however, is reliable and can bring you smoothly and comfortably from one place to another. One would really wonder why this capable car didn’t fare well in the market. During its time, it would be as capable as any of the other cars it is competing with.
Even though the Dodge Mirada didn’t become popular, owners of the car can attest that it is a very reliable vehicle. A Mirada can last long and travel distances even without a single major repair. Your problem would just come at such time when you need to repair the car and replace some of its parts. With only 5,120 units produced, not all people, and not even all auto parts shop, knows what the Dodge Mirada is, and definitely wouldn’t have Dodge Mirada parts in their stock.
