the srt4 is not a super car. its not an exotic. its not a muscle car.

its the best bang for the buck under $20k (when released)

and that statement is true. they won't pull a Cobra unless highly modified. They won't pull a Porsche or whatever else people think these cars compare to.

But they will stomp an Evo.....from a roll.

I should know. i have an srt.

I'll race them all! I'd beat a majority of them with my impala, but even if I was in my 250 I6 30 year old truck and lost, I'd still laugh at them. Someone once said to me, "Think about it, If I beat a LS1 T/A with a Neon, they have to go home and tell their wife they got beat by a Neon! That must hurt"

To which I replied, "It could be worse, the Neon guy had to tell his wife he Bought a neon!"

NEONs are stupid. If you want a fast car spend a little money and get a mustang, camero, trans-am, etc...

NEONs are for high school kids that want a muscle car but cant.

Dodge actually sells a 'SRT Design' Neon. It has the hood scoop, the wing, the dual exhaust but no turbo. The things that set them off are that they don't have the two rectangular scoops in the bumper, have the wrong wheels and don't have rear disk brakes. But at a glance they are very convincing, especially since each dealer only got a couple total to sell. My stepdad bought one to save on gas (HEMI=gas guzzler) but he gets tons of compliments from REAL SRT4 owners because they don't know its just a clever factory fake.
