    BUYER'S GUIDE: SRT-4 VS MSP.

    I have a 01 R/T which is the same chassis as the SRT4.(2nd gen) I have no complaints with this car as it is very reliable and capable on the autoX course. The SRT4 has many other upgrades in suspension and drivetrain and will hold over 300hp and 300ftlbs. The open diff is a weak link but not...

    Give me your opinion on sport compacts - this time it will count for something!

    30-Male, not really brand loyal, I like most of these cars and could almost any of them and be content. I try to keep an open mind, and dislike those who don't. AutoX and do quite well with my current car so I would not look for a car that would hinder me much in that area.

    I still don't understand, I have said I like the MSP!! I might still buy one, but I point out the error of ones thinking, or give some helpful advice to a noob and I get "Neons are POS", "You don't know value", WTF is up with that. Thanks for the respect...:wtf:

    I was just out for a bit and stopped by a local newstand, browsed the new World of Wheels car guide. Commented on the improved neon quality and the "exceptional" PT quality....:) Of course the P5 got a great review too. No worries Newf, whose car isit anyway and what year of R/T?

    SRT is here!!!!

    Having worked for car auctions before and being an enthusiust I have driven enough cars to know where the value is, and quality. I also have learned to keep an open mind and seen different companies vastly improve over the last 10-15 yrs. My 01 R/T is rock solid as I am coming up on 2yrs of...

    I never tried to say the SRT is superior. Some people can't get over the Neon name, whatever. MSP deserves respect, but so does the SRT4, Spec V, SVT, etc.

    Re: Touchy subject!!!! The SRT4 is a possibility for me. The car isn't really that high but it would benefit from a 1" drop. There will be enough out there to mod this car, Mopar has a number of products that will be out, TurboXS that does some WRX stuff has some things in the works too.

    SRT is here!!!!

    There are a few picture around I will try to find of the routing for the scoop, but as I said, it is functional. By respect I meant the "looks like ass", "POS" comments. I am not asking people to love it, a simple "I think it is ugly", or "I would wait and see what the quality is like" is all...

    It is called sarcasm, there was not one production model at a car show. So you sat in a prototype. Curious, how many of you have sat in or driven a 2nd gen Neon, or R/T? I drove a MP3 before I bought my car, as well as a SIR, and a SpecV about 5 months later. I don't think there is a...

    Wow....:rolleyes: The SRT4 is not far off the handling of the MSP, do your research and you will see. The scoop draws air over the the turbo AND has a second route that blows air directly into the airbox if you choose to set it up that way. The MSP is still a Protege and refinment has never...

    Maybe you should go join clubrsx, your attitude would fit right in, which actually makes me wobder why you didn't buy a RSX? Did you know that in JD power initial quality the Neon rates MUCH higher than the protege? Right your car isn't a Protege thought, its a MSP, the Ferrari of sport...

    Power fronts, the rears only open half way(child safe) so they decided not to have power rears. Interesting, so you have sat in a 03 production vehicle? And by that you can say it is an all round better car?

    :D Agreed. If things go sideways with the SRT4 for me I have a backup plan.....MSP :D

    SRT is here!!!!

    I think that many people are writing the SRT4's handling and braking off. It will outhandle and brake 99% of the cars in it's class, and with a little -camber on the fronts and maybe 1inch lower I wouldn't doubt it would match or come closer to the MSP. Your friend should be careful for sure...

    Cleaning my MSP??????

    I have yet to see a brush that works as good as a 100% cotton cloth. A 50% polyester/50% cotton towel "feels" soft but it will give you swirls lke crazy. Make sure to wash the car in even side to side strokes, not swirling. Trust me again, my car is black and is pretty much free of "swirls"...
