the roadrunner had a striping kit on it and a blacked out grille with dual exhaust and special tips on it and the suspension was heavier duty plus it had a beep-beep horn.

Roadrunner's standard engine is a 383 with optional 426 Hemi or 440 Six Pack. The Satellite could have anything from slant 6 to 440 Six Pack. Then the trim differences.


No satellite or plus came with a 440 period. 383 yes, 4 speed,NO.

PLUS could be had with heavy duty suspension, dual exhaust.

The plus upgrade came with fender lites-chrome rocker moulding.

No satellite came with rear wing or front dual wings WELL ONE! MINE FACTORY.

Option was dropped in 72.

The major differance in a RR and a SSP for 71, was INSURANCE COST via Satellite an ole mans car??? not High Perf. lacking the 440, yet 383 hi-po option, available.

Satellites had no Dana Rear end.

There were 7 options on a RR not on a' Satellite' dealers buyer book, even SSP"S.

As far the body of the car goes a 2 door satellite and a Roadrunner are the same.. VIN: Satellite=RL Salellite Sebring=RH Satellite Sebring Plus=RP RoadRunner=RM A 72 roadrunner RM will have the following: Special Split grille with honeycomb mesh insert (rare item) High performance engine 340 400 or 440(440 is "U" code GTX option) Roadrunner Decor: Strobe Stripe RR emblems and bird decal on lower quarter Hood Stripes vary by hood RR medalion in header panel RR script or bird on dash Hood options: Call out with engine displacement or air grabber Roadrunner "Beep Beep" horn A few High impact colors (RR only) were left over in 72...(non available was plum crazy purple, sassy grass green) There are probably a few other things I forgot...but most of the other RR options not listed could have been ordered on a Satellite such as sway bars, 400, bucket seats, console, 4 speed, and so on.
