Powertrain Options and Availability
Initial models were powered by a turbocharged, dual-overhead-cam 2.3-liter inline 5-cylinder engine, making 236 horsepower. Another engine soon joined the fray, producing 190 horsepower and installed in the base coupe and the convertible. Two transmissions have been offered: a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. Both engines gained 7 horsepower for '03.
