I know for a fact it will blow the doors off your wallet if it ever hits the showroom floor.

If I see one I will make it look silly!!

enough said!!

i'll believe it when i see it, and for all those guys that are nervous about something that isn't made yet, get over it, you've got time to drop the extra 20K you'd spend on the srt ram, into the L and be in the 10's easy, by far killing the dodge anyday! even a modded one. remember the hp:wt ratio

i'm fing sick of all this dodge junk, the only thing they have been able to get out of the door is a hemi ram, its ugly, heavy, and slow. i bet i'll see tons of them around my area, since i live in little mexico of seattle. its going to be fun smoking them when they try to man up against me.
Hate to tell you, you can get the Neon, at dealers, NOW.

The thing will smoke an SVT Focus, but a Lightning will spank it. It has a good 0-60, but everything after that falls off. Heck, if the guy really knows how to drive, he may stay with a Lightning, through first gear.

It's a 205hp, 220ft-lb car, and it looks great, especially for a Neon. It's real, it's HERE, and it's quick - but a Lightning is fast.

Also, it has the same motor as the PT Cruiser Turbo that just hit the dealers. I drove one of those, and it's quick - but a WRX will spank it.

Dodge is definately on the way to giving us real headaches in the Ford camp. With all of Fords money problems they are going to get left behind for a few years. The neon may be a great run for a stock L but a modified one will walk all over it. Dodge says the srt neon will run 0-60 in 5.8 secs. . You can do alot to modify a turbo to give freakish #'s. No L competition but it will smear an svt focus all day long. Supposedly Ford will be coming out with an svt focus with a turbo in 04' or 05'. A little late but the focus is a better car than the neon right now. It will be in 05' too. THE LITTLE CAR CRAZE WILL NEVER GO AWAY. SO GET USED TO LITTLE PURPLE AND GREEN THINGY'S REVVIN' NEXT TO YOU AT A LIGHT.

Ummm .... read the article, Beavis:
Production of Dodge SRT-4 is scheduled to start in the spring of 2003 at the Belvidere (Ill.) Assembly Plant, with sales to begin shortly after.

That Pig don't fly!
