This Year's Model Updates:

Chrysler and Dodge have restyled most vehicles this year to bring out similarities and cohesiveness among the Chrysler group cars. To that end, the Stratus sedan receives a new front fascia, and R/T sedans get a monochromatic grille. Sedan interior changes include the addition of steering wheel-mounted audio controls and an auto-dimming rearview mirror, along with new door panels, new seat fabric and three new interior choices. Two new 16-inch wheel options, plus two new exterior colors have been added as well. Also this year, Stratus sedans without optional antilock brakes receive a downgraded braking system with rear drums in place of discs. On the plus side, traction control is now available when combined with antilock brakes. A manual transmission is no longer available. Changes to the coupe are minimal. The interior features a new "Satin Silver" finish on the center stack bezels, and door accents.

Pros:
  • Exceptional value, attractive shape, fun to drive.
Cons:

    It is a great car to have. I have a lot of fun with the option of having manual or automatic. I have small children and its not hard to get them in and out for it being a sports car.

    Stratus has been underrated for years now. It drives great, is roomy, gets good gas mileage and looks like a sports car for a portion of the cost.

  • My 2001 Stratus ES - 2004 Dodge Stratus
    By -

    A very fun car to drive. Great looks ( I have black clearcoat with the factory chrome wheels), plenty of power and good handling. Good interior room and the seats are very comfortable. The Autostick shifter is a blast! I consider this car to be an excellent value in the midsize range. I presently have 22K on the car. One warranty visit for the blower switch, at 21K, which was fixed with no problem.

  • Best Sports Coupe for the Money - 2004 Dodge Stratus
    By -

    This is a great car. Ive owned many sports coupes in the past and none had the handling like the Stratus R/T. The drivers cockpit is roomy and comfortable. The cars exterior is sleek and sporty. Cant say enough goods things about the car in this allotted writing space.

    2.4L passes flawlessly! This car is light and nimble, and holds the road while it straightens out curves The Dodge Stratus is roomy, and has good visability. Contols are easy to reach and use. Climate control is exclt! A/C actually cools the car in full sun, and doesnt bogg the car down on hills or hvy accl. sound sys is crisp and clean, plays all cd formats. My Stratus came with 16" Alloy whls, grt stability. I drive 55 miles ea way to work, and the Stratus performs excellent in the MPG dept 34hwy/23cty I drive a bit faster than most. I now have 22,000 miles on it and no Problems what so ever. The Stratus handles Snow and Ice filled roads Like a Pro
