Step back into the 1980s with this 1987 Dodge Shelby Charger Turbo, a car that exemplifies the unique partnership between Carroll Shelby and Dodge. This collaboration aimed to transform Dodge's compact car lineup into performance-driven icons, and the Shelby Charger Turbo became one of its most exciting achievements. Built on the Dodge Omni platform, the Shelby Charger first appeared in 1983 and underwent steady refinement over the years. By 1987, it was powered by a turbocharged 2.2L inline 4 engine producing an impressive 174 horsepower. Paired with a five speed manual transmission, this lightweight hatchback delivered exhilarating performance and precision handling, rivaling European hot hatches of the time. The striking Burgundy over Silver two tone paint scheme perfectly captures the bold styling of the era, while the car's low mileage of 51124 miles showcases its careful preservation. Inside, the grey leather interior with cloth inserts reflects the sporty nature of the car. The embroidered headrests add a unique touch that pays homage to the Shelby legacy. The factory installed sunroof enhances the driving experience, bringing an extra sense of openness to every journey. As one of the final Shelby branded Dodge vehicles before Shelby returned to his partnership with Ford, the 1987 Shelby Charger Turbo represents a key moment in automotive history. Its completely stock configuration ensures that it remains a time capsule of 1980s performance innovation, making it highly appealing to collectors and enthusiasts alike.
