The 1983 Dodge Aries for buyers
No 1983 Dodge Aries is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 1983 Dodge Aries, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the Aries
NHTSA has 2 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, steering and suspension. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
What to expect from the Aries
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.
A longer test drive
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Aries for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
Choosing the right one
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
What it costs to run
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.
