Re: the SRT-4 being a good or bad car. IMO, It's an awesome motor, tossed into a crappy car. I'm not saying it looks bad or anything, I'm just saying that if you really wanted to make use of that motor, you'd put it in a RWD platform.

Dodge should have made a new body for that thing like they're doing with the SRT-6, SRT-8 and SRT-10. A light, cheap, RWD sports sedan.. then sell a n/a and turbo model... it could have been the new AE86! Then leave the Neon as a means for basic transportation... it does a great job in that roll.

So, I'm not really knocking the SRT-4... it's pretty sweet for what it is... but it could have been so much more... and perhaps there'd be less 'tards out there that buy 'em cause they're cheap then act like they've got the best car since sliced bread.
