So I bought the wife a new...

Posted via Mobile Device ...srt4 Caliber. Overall its pretty sweet, loaded nicely plus the performance isnt to bad. I reckon its as fast as my previous 02 gt. not bad for a 2.4 turbo. 285hp/265ft lbs, dodge claims 14 flat in the quater, once it hits 1000 miles ill see what it can really do.

Sounds as if he's hyping up some rental car...

The problem with the caliber, is no matter how fast it is, it still looks like an suv. The neon was much more sportier looking.

My brother has a caliber, and I am not impressed with it, it seems real cheap (like a neon), and it's slow as **** and ugly. But the SRT4 is a lot cooler looking, they made it look somewhat agressive. I wonder if they improved the interior looks at all.

Either way though, I bet it's pretty quick with AWD and the 2.4 turbo. I'm sure you'll see plenty of them running real quick once people start modding them. So all in all I'd call it a cool little car for what it is.

Why is this on a Mustang forum?

Posted via Mobile Device not sure if the interior is diffrent, aside from the leather seats with "srt" on them and the instrument cluster with the 180mph speedo and boost pod. unfortunatly its not awd, its fwd. one of the reasons i like it is cuz its got the same faux venturi on the rear fascia as does my gt/cs. although i hate to admit it, it handles way better than my gt which is impressive for being a crossover.

If i was still in high school i would rock a neon srt-4. No doubt.
