Blue-painted brake calipers hide behind 18-inch gloss-black wheels, while the car’s black exterior paint gets accented with a full-length blue racing stripe. A ground-effects package consisting of a front-chin spoiler, deck-lid spoiler, and rear diffuser, combined with lowering the suspension by a quarter-inch, lends the Dart a hunkered-down, means-business look.
Inside, there’s a custom Katzkin leather interior, with a blue driver’s seat with black trim, and black with blue trim on the rest of the seats (buyers can specify all seats matching in either color, but the unique driver seat is the way to go if you want to stand out). Blue stitching, a blue “racetrack” around the dash, light black chrome accents, and custom Mopar shifter, pedals, and splash screens on the dash displays complete the interior makeover. An in-vehicle wireless charging system for smartphones also debuts inside the Dart. As for performance, steering assist is programmed to give more heft and feedback, while brakes have been upgraded to slotted rotors for optimized performance.
The Mopar 2013 Dodge Dart will debut at next week’s Chicago Auto Show.Stay tuned for pricing, and order fast – only 500 will be produced.
