Common questions
How much does a Dodge Daytona cost?
A 1983 Dodge Daytona cost $7,995 new. Across every sale we have on file, 20 have sold publicly at a median of $8,650. The Shifty Estimate for a well-kept example is $13,100. Cars have changed hands anywhere from $5,450 to $15,065, depending on mileage, color, and history.
What is a 1983 Dodge Daytona worth today?
The Shifty Estimate is $13,100. That sits above the $8,650 median of actual sales because the median counts every car that sold, including high-mileage examples, while the estimate describes a clean, low-mileage one bought today. We rate confidence medium: 20 public sales in a year is a thin market, and the spread between them is wide.

The Dodge Daytona emerged as Chrysler's answer to the Fox-body Mustang, built on the K-car platform but transformed into something genuinely sporting. The early Turbo I models delivered 142 hp from their 2.2L four-cylinder, while the later Turbo II cranked out 174 hp with intercooling. The real prize came in 1987 with the Shelby Z variant, producing 174 hp and featuring aggressive bodywork that presaged the Viper's design language. These front-wheel-drive coupes offered surprising performance for their era, with the Turbo models capable of sub-7-second 0-60 runs. Production spanned over 200,000 units across the decade, making clean examples increasingly sought after. The Iroc R/T and Shelby variants command the strongest collector interest today, particularly in original turbo form. While overshadowed by contemporary imports, the Daytona represents an important chapter in Chrysler's performance revival and offers accessible 1980s turbo thrills.
