In my opinion their all great cars. Personally I think the SE-R and SRT-4 are cheaply built. I have an 03 SE-R and the interior sucks and my cousin has an 04 SRT-4 which has had afew interior pieces replaced. While the GTI and MSP have get interiors. All these cars base models have been on the market for afew years now. Personally I would go with the GTI because of all the aftermarket performance support it has available. The SE-R has nothing close to that. The SRT-4 has factory performance support and thats awesome. As for the MSP good luck locating a new one. I did see a used one afew months ago at a Dodge dealer.
What car to get?

DO NOT GET THE SRT4! Dear lord please don't. Yeah, fast as fvck, and engine is "bulletproof", but what people overlook....What about the rest of the car??? That thing is going to fall to pieces!!!! Think of and GOOD looking neon you have seen...not too many, paint is s***, everything is cheap...DONT DO IT!

this is how i see it...
1. GTI 1.8T
2. MSP
3. SE-R Spec-V
4. SRT-4
number 1 and number two are really really close. they are both really good cars...hell...thats why i am on this site too. it depends on what you are looking for in a car and how much you are willing to spend. however my 3rd and 4th choices are only there because you supplied them...
when it came time for me to pick i went with the GTI because i couldn't believe how it was such a civilized and luxurious car...until you jumped on the throttle. i mean...damn this car has some balls and you wouldn't really know it while sitting in the interior of the car. it is a pretty unassuming car and chances are the Mazdaspeed would draw a lot more attention. i definately recommend driving all of the cars and going from there.
as for upgrades for the GTI 1.8T. with a chip, CAI, DV, N75J valve you can be pushing around 215HP 245TQ. you can also upgrade the exhaust, go with a FMIC...there really is a lot of stuff you can do to make it very very quick. there are turbo upgrades and the stock engine can handle up to around 400HP before something goes wrong.
if you like the flash of a body kit and such of the MSP, look into a 20th Anniversary GTI or the 337. if you are going more for a lil bit more stealth, go with the regular GTI 1.8T.

Where the hell did you get those specs? About 1/2 of them are wrong for the MSP. The interior isn't more comfortable either...the only + it has is better side bolstering of the seats. (jerkit)Micah said:
