The Forgotten 1992 Dodge Daytona IROC R/T is a Rare and Underrated Pony Car Like The Z28 or Mustang

"No, not that IROC!!"

Say the word "IROC," and virtually everyone will associate it with the 1985-1989 Chevrolet Z28 that licensed the name and became synonymous with it. IROC actually stands for "International Race of Champions," which was a Masters Tournament or All Star Game of the car racing work, focused much more on North American racing than the name would imply.

In 1990, the race moved to sponsorship by Dodge, and the IROC name was plastered on their Daytona, a turbocharged (or V6) pony car that ostensibly competed with the Camaro and Mustang. In 1992, only 341 IROC R/Ts were made, utilizing the 2.2 Turbo III engine, a unit extensively tweaked by Shelby and Lotus, and massaged to 224 HP - more than 1.6HP per cubic inch!

Only 341 were made primarily because Lotus was unable to provide the tweaked heads in any great quantity, and far less than Dodge had envisioned. This makes it an extremely rare muscle car from the 1990s, and an absolute future collectible.

This car is a showroom condition 1992 with 47K miles and all original condition throughout. Full review and test drive by Bill. Vehicle for sale at Autohaus of Naples, on the web at www.AutohausNaples.com or by phone at (239) 263-8500.
