The 'Turbo Interceptor' is actually the 1984 Dodge-PPG Twin Turbo M4S Prototype.






[those arethe best pictures I can find... screen shots from the movie]</P>


The Dodge Turbo Interceptor pace car built by Chrysler and PPG Industries for $1.5 million. It was used in a movie called "The Wraith." Filmed in outside of Tuscon, Arizona, in 1986, stared Charlie Sheen and Nick Cassavettes. There were six copies of the car that were built for the movie. The car was rear-wheel-drive, power by a 2.2L Cosworth twin-turbo in-line four.This car was written about in a book called "dream cars" several years back. These cars were powered by a 2.2 liter, twin intercooled turbo, dohc, pumping out a supposed 440 horsepower!!!

<FONT size=3>*redriderbob - do you have any better pics of this? It's one of my all time favorites*</FONT></P>

Cool - and thanks... Just found this site (while searching for this car actually). Good luck to the guy making one. My current projects are a built engine swap for the wifes sunbird and my future project is my 85 Laser with a built 3.0. Nothing major...
