High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Dodge Dynasty was a front-wheel drive sedan that was introduced in 1987 as a 1988 model to replace the 600 as Dodge's mid-size car. The Dodge Dynasty was related to the Chrysler New Yorker; both cars were built on the Chrysler C platform. The Dynasty is also similar to the Chrysler Imperial, which was available from 1990 to 1993 and was on the same extended wheelbase chassis as the Fifth Avenue version of the Chrysler New Yorker. All Dynasty models were produced in Belvidere, Illinois. A 2.5- litre inline-4 Chrysler engine (available with an A413 three-speed automatic transmission (Chrysler TorqueFlite) or a 5-speed manual transaxle), a Mitsubishi-sourced 3.0-litre V6, the 6G72 engine, the same as used e.g. in the Mitsubishi 3000GT/Dodge Stealth, and a Chrysler-built 3.3-litre V6 were available, although the 3.3 V6 was not available until 1990.
