Test drove a SRT-4...

In my woes for a new car, I decided to test drive the SRT-4, or at least take a look at it. My dealer has an electric blue with sunroof, that looked nice. I do love the exterior of the car, and its performance is top notch, or so I thought.

The car drives like crap, compared to our Proteges, the shifter feels like its connected by 10ft wires, read, very lose. The feel of those big A pillar in front hamper all kind of vision, and the feel of the interior was horrible. Felt like in a rent-a-car. Its power was pretty good, but not to par with my HiBoost P5. It didnt put me to the back of the seat like mine did. Oviously my P5 didnt do 14sec 1/4 miles but I must have more torque than this SRT did. A 85 mph run fast pretty fast, but overall very disatisfied, and now still looking for a new car.

Just wanted to share my experience. You Speed owners got nothing to be ashame. Yeah the SRT is faster, but only if you are still running 6psi. :D

but still needs a radio, although, I would of replaced it anyways so I guess its better to not pay for a crappy stock system in the first place
 
SRT4 = Neon

You can't look at it any other way. Low end Dodge (edit cause of brain fart) Parts car...

RX8
STi
EVO

In that order. The RX8 has the refinement and the rich guy look and the STi and EVO have the Boy Racer with the balls to back it up. The 8's out handles both though :)

I got myself an 8 this summer - absolutely love it. It will blow the doors off 98% of the stuff out there (including an STi if driven right)

But - if money were no object - go with the 360 Modena :) oh man, I am starting to salivate.....
