It was a Dodge Colt GT. Red in color. I don't have the vin any more. Lost it a long time ago. That was 2000. I drove the wheels off that car.

There may be one more number listed on the Firewall Plate? The numbers/letters will indicate something to this effect:
C53AMNPTL2M
This is the last set of numbers that details the full optioning on your car. 8)

That was pretty random that I selected that from another car and it matched, but I think alot of people ordered, or had no choice but to order certain options depending up on availability and/or a build of cars on the lot at the time of purchase.
Thank you, your info is now complete GoSloTurbo. :wtg:

Adding to the registry, I got the information from my 89 Mirage Turbo donor car. This one had red exterior, mini-vette turbo wheels, standard grey turbo interior, underseat tray, manual windows, fuel/hatch release levers, AC, PS for options.

The car wasn't easily saveable when I got to it, had a blown head gasket, broken axle, salvage title and the body was rusty and dented. The odometer read 138,XXXmi when it was turned to salvage. Regardless, the thing was nearly complete and made a great donor. Currently the body is sitting in a field, waiting to be crushed. There are several members of this board that ended up with various parts out of this car, and it provided many of the important parts necessary to build my Colt GL.
As far as I could tell, it was originally purchased at Kuettner Mitsubishi in Waukesha, WI, and stayed in the area its whole life.

VIN: JA3CU54Z9KU016876
Firewall stamped number: C10AKU016876
MODEL: C53AMNPTL2M
ENGINE: 4G61
TRANS: KM210
COLOR/TRIM: R52 04A A81

Edit 2/12/07 - Car was crushed today :( Farewell!

PMA1123, the only thing I need is the build date from the door tag. Doh! I know the car is out of your way. With more tags I can confirm that it is indeed a May or June 1988 build date but right now it just landed your car between those two possibilites. As more cars get added it gets easier to reach and extrapolate data that is "between the lines".
But, otherwise your data is just super, and I have even filed the photos into your folder full of pics I have on the PC on my end. Thumbs up!

t2fastalon, thank you for the info. I have also updated the list with your detailed information and you definitely have a later build date as far as I can tell. To date, the earliest date I have recorded through VIN's (excluding bmw88rider's #4 built car) starts at the 009000 range, working upward towards you car at the 070000+ area.
PS, What colour was your Mirage?

Updated, t2fastalon your info is complete, well at least as complete as we can get it under the circumstances. Much appreciated that people have so much info about their past C53a cars, that they can still post about them. Even if people have some vague info about their past cars, it will get put in the section of cars that is reserved for wrecker yards, crushed cars, and previously owned undetailed recollections of previous ownership or sightings. It all helps guys. :D

There is another one I know about. A lady that works by my house has a white mirage turbo. It is awsome condition. I left her a note before asking if she would like to sell it and she never called me. I could get the vin if you like? :lol:

8) You don't even have to ask to know the answer to that question, in as much as VIN are all publicly viewable on the outside of the car. :wink:
Just let me know what sort of interior and optioning she may have too. Maybe even leave another note on her door with the link to the page, then she can see if she would like to post the full info here for us to revel(?) in.
