R.I.P SRT-4
i just got my car and driver mag and i read that the SRT-4 and the neon r being discontinued. wut do u guys think of Dodge's decision? good -- bad?
I think its because they r getting their a$$es kicked by the awd rally cars.
know everything has optional awd[8D]

RE: R.I.P SRT-4
I think it is a pretty bad call on dodges part seeings how that was the ricer car that they had. With that they were kinda providing to all the car enthusiasts ( dont get me wrong I hate NEONS MORE THAN ANYTHING ) but other than that all they have is the Charger and the super bee ram. I think that they should have kept it. They seemed to be very present at least in my community.

RE: R.I.P SRT-4
All Dodge has is the Charger and SuperBee Ram? Are you referring to what they have performance wise?
Neon SRT-4/Caliber SRT-4
Charger R/T
Charger SRT-8
Magnum R/T
Magnum SRT-8
Challenger SRT-8 (coming soon)
Ram SRT-10
Viper SRT-10
(Chrysler and Jeep)
Sebring TSi (coming soon)
Crossfire SRT-6
300C SRT-8
Jeep Cherokee SRT-8
-------------------------------------
I've stated it before, the SRT-4 is being replaced by the Dodge Caliber SRT-4 which is AWD. It will be a capable of putting 60% of it's power to the rear wheels. It doesn't look as good, but it will probably perform better. No specs on the 2.4L Turbocharged engine yet, but I can bet it will be a little bit more powerful.

And not every one who has an SRT-4 is a ricer. If that was true, then I could say every one who owned a Mustang was a white boy who lived in a trailer. (not that they are, just an example)

RE: R.I.P SRT-4
the claiber is an ugly piece of crap...great...ANOTHER wagon and sedan combo...i dont give a damn if its faster than the SRT4...dodge is intentionally trying to remove itself from the performance market...
the charger ISNT a performance car..its a god damned family sedan.
