Dodge Daytona

The Daytona was a racecar introduced by Dodge in 1969 as a way to create a more aerodynamic stock car. It was based on the Dodge Charger and featured a nose cone and large tail wing. NASCAR required that at least 500 units had to be sold, so Dodge built 500. The final one was used in NASCAR as the "Daytona 500", after the famous race. A twin known as the Plymouth Superbird was also available based on the Plymouth Roadrunner.

Motorsport
The Daytona and its twin were designed to compete in NASCAR, and were competitive in their day. The revival competed in the IMSA GT Championship and Trans Am.

Revival
The name was revived in the eighties on a sports coupe and later in the 2000s on a special edition of the Charger.
