A new sport-tuned SXT version for Dodge's flagship sedan highlights 2003 models. In all, Intrepid segments into three variations this year, each drawing on a different powerplant. Intrepid SE packs the base engine, a 2.7-liter V6 out of an aluminum block with multi-valve technology inside and twin cams on top. Horsepower runs to 200 points. Intrepid ES also carries the 2.7-liter V6 as standard equipment, but offers as an option a 3.5-liter single-cam V6 that generates 234 hp and operates on regular-grade fuel. New SXT increases the power quotient by packing aboard a high-output 3.5-liter V6 rated at 244 hp, along with the Dodge AutoStick dual-mode automatic shifter. Four-wheel disc brakes and frontal air bags go into all versions, with side-impact air bags available. One glimpse at Intrepid's sleek exterior produces a wow factor by the sporty design. In addition to the Viper-esque prow, Intrepid exhibits shapely hints of some vintage Ferrari in the bold front treatment featuring a blunt-but-round-and-low nose and massive expanse of canted windshield glass. The roof arches over sensuously shaped doors to merge rear roof pillars in a dip to the curt tail, where there's a rainbow trace of brake lamps. New colors in the paint chart include Deep Lava Red, Satin Jade and Deep Graphite.
