RE: Me Vs. SRT-4
Dude those car will put 235 whp. I consider that VERY powerful especially for a sport compact. Some bolt ons those cars are running low 13s. Dont take this the wrong way but you dont know what your talking about.

you spend a lot more to get 500hp though. it comes stock with not a lot of hp, but to get to 500hp you need to go through expensive stages. so the car will end up being close to thirty. If i spent that on my car I would romp the SRT-4 any day of the week

Name another car under $21,000 that can match an SRT-4, and that can match the SRT-4's tuning potential - 500+ fwhp on stock internals.

SRT-4's are the most overrated piles ever. When they came out people thought it was a gift from god, they suck. I have never even come close to losing to a SRT-4, ever. waste of 20k

and I agree with Mach I. saleen you spend lots of time instigating arguements about this car, but you never seem to have anything to back up your arguements except with "it's still a neon."
Well, your saleen is STILL just a Mustang under it's over priced saleen badges and body kit.

Don't Machs dyno the same as you stock? But I guess your 373 gears must help launching out from a stop.

You don't make any sense, having torque steer in the snow doesn't really apply unless you're mashing the pedal to the floor everytime you try to take off. Which would be retarded.
I'd rather not try to feather my clutch everytime with high torque V8s in the snow and have the *** end spin out into an uncontrollable fish tail every time.
FWD > RWD as far as driving in the snow. Torque steer is NOT a big deal, I can still drive just fine with the car pulling to one side, unlike when you get on it in a rwd car you'd have to let off before you're looking at where you just came from.
daily driving in any weather; AWD > FWD> RWD
racing, i'll give it the benefit; AWD > RWD > FWD
Now for the love of God please shut the hell up with that gay excuse "OMG TORQUE STEER! I don't want it!"

Actually Mrs. Smarty Pants, My car is a 93 and in 97 I was offered $11,000 for it and in 98 some girl wanted to give my $12K.... you should speak about something you know...
BTW do you know what a GT sold for in 93? Do the math, thats a wee bit better then 63.5484884% of its orgianl value
