The 1983 Dodge 600 for buyers
No 1983 Dodge 600 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 1983 Dodge 600 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
A buyer's checks
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
The numbers in plain words
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Who it is for
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Space, size and seats
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.
A longer test drive
Rent first, buy later: a week with the 600 answers the big questions. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A test week in the 600 tells you more than any review.
Year and trim
Within the 1983 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
The cost of driving it
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
