The Dodge Shadow ES for 1992

There have been several award-winning cars from Dodge over the years, including the Dodge Shadow of 1992. There are three trim levels to the Shadow, including High Line, America, and ES. The ES version is one of the more popular options, outselling other configurations. Like in 1991 the popular 3.0 liter has made this a popular choice for convertible buyers nationwide.
