Yea, I love the color too. It's hard to capture with the camera. It's a pearl orange that's red in the shade... but, when the sun hits it, it has a bright green metallic flek to it... pretty cool I think.
I traded the SVT in. They gave me an offer that I couldn't pass up, plus, they let me take ALL the stuff off the car after the sale. It took me 14 hours to swap springs, struts, wheels/tires, headlights, grille, and radios with a local guy with a T-Red SVT. Hell of a day, but well worth the green.

Awesome. Great that you got your mods off. Yeah making coin. So, I assume you have mods planned for the new hotness in the future? More boost?

Hm never seen you on the boards before, nice SVT you had there, the Neon is ok, I'm not big on Neons, just not a dodge kinda guy I guess.

Yea... there are some mods in the future... the not too distant future actually.
Speedwise - Stage II w/ toys to start with (stage III ultimately), 3'' DP, Mopar Catback, Mopar STS
Handling - Mopar Stage III coilovers, 17x7 Gunmetal Rims, 225/45/17 Azenis, PT Cruiser Front Sway Bar, ACR Rear Sway Bar, Self-Poly the 2 motor mounts and the tranny mount.
That should be a good starting point... and handle as good as my old CSVT.
And Chris... I've been checkin out your SRT-4 for a while now... great car/products. I've done business with you before... and surely will in the future.

Nice Bob, that's gonna be a beast. Make sure you post your Troll pix when the modding is done.

Bob, I remember you from past years with the Contour, and what I can say is that the SRT-4 lacks handling, stock to stock, versus the SVT, but that can be fixed really easy. It appears that you have already done your research in that area as well as the other aspects. The SRT-4 is a blast to drive (and the SVT too  ) and you already know that, don't you?
