Re: a quick ?

I used to have a '96 (i think) Intrepid sport, and it wasn't slow. (the slapstick was fun too) I think the same 3.3 and 3.5 were used from 93-97, the 3.5 being around 215hp I think. Your GT is 200hp (unmodified), but I'd say you'd win in the 1/4. I don't remember the Intrepid's acceleration being as quick as the GP.

Re: a quick ?

well, i used to own a 3.1 and I beat a 3.5 in about a 98 or so intrepid. Cant say it didnt give me a run for my money... especially with a 3.1. Seems like those a quick motors up to a certain point then they seem to hit a brick wall.
