what kind of mileage do you think that particular srt gets? Originally posted by GS474:
i have some respect for the srt 4
and the new caliber if they don't butcher it
but for the most part some of the smaller cars they have may get good gas milage (i don't know) i know the bigger vehecles were they use v6-v8s get horrible gas milage and thats enough to turn me off from the new dodge any way
i still love some of the older dodges ie: duster, challenger,
the super bee ect

Oh, and mines faster.
Alright so I guessed about the year. You got me, haha.
The normal SRT-4's aren't really that impressive. I've ridden in normal ones, but this was the STAGE 3. As in, 345hp Stage 3 Turbo.

Of course, let's all knock Dodge for not being impressive.  I was very impressed with the drivetrain of the SRT-4 ACR, and the interior wasn't so bad it hurt. Overall, I still wish I had one. That BOV is priceless...

i'm not knocking dodge per se. i just don't find SRT-4's to be that impressive, stage 3 or not. personal preference.

Hahahaha EXACTLY. Regardless of if you find it impressive or not, they're fast. Period.
Also, think about value. The $/hp ratio is very high in those cars.
I'll tell you whats NOT all that impressive....the Cobalt SS Supercharged. Just wasn't impressed. Should have been alot quicker with 210hp.

since when did i say they weren't fast 
i don't base my idea of an impressive car on speed alone. a really fast car can still be very unimpressive IMO, and the srt4 is a prime example of that.
