The Neon's( SRT-4) are pretty plain...which is okay, but that rear wing has GOT to go....it just looks like hell on them. They also don't have a very good stance in my opinion. I thought about getting a used one, but the only thing that appealed to me was the performance compared to my outlander. The Neon's are supposed to have some pretty decent upgrades available form Mopar also. But 300 HP right out of the box on a car the size of the Caliber and 260 TQ....that's fun!

i owned an srt infact one of the higher hp ones in the country making over 500 whp on pump gas. loved it. i recently sold it and purchased a brand new 2006 sti and an evo. there is no comparison. the japanese cars just seemed to be made alot better.

Not to mention Dodge's reputation for quality and reliability. After seeing the Caliber in person, it isn't too impressive. I'd feel like a sardine in it.

What in the world did you do to your SRT to run 500 whp on only pump gas? And yes, having an STi and EVO must be a nice treat
