Junkyard Find: 1990 Dodge Daytona Turbo

We'll continue on our Turbo Era junkyard tour, which kicked off yesterday with a 50th Anniversary Edition Nissan 300ZX Turbo, with one of the many Chrysler K-platform-based products to benefit from Turbo Era technology: this 1990 Dodge Daytona Turbo.
One of the most important features during the Turbo Era (which ran from 1984 through 1992) was the rear window louvers. This showed the world you were serious back then.
They were actually pretty effective at keeping the sun off your upholstery, and they didn't block the view quite as badly as one might expect. But they were still silly.
According to Allpar, the '90 Daytona could be had with a 150-horse 2.5 or a much more nervous 174-horse 2.2. I neglected to check the smog sticker in this car, so I can't tell you which engine we're seeing here. It's a non-Shelby model, so I'm guessing it's the 2.5.
Such a luxurious Whorehouse Red velour interior!
And look, an early airbag.
I'm guessing that none of these controls worked by about 1993, but they look pretty cool.
Just 152,907 miles on the clock. And, on that note, we now end this installment of Turbo Era Junkyard Finds.
