The SRT4 is a fast car, but the interior is trash. And after that youre still driving a Neon with a turbo. And buying one USED as somebody said above is probably the dumbest idea in the world. Do you know anybody who treats an SRT4 nicely? If you have the money get an Evo/STi, if you dont get that much get an SS

The motor is sturdy. I wouldn't worry about it being beat on BUT look for the modified ones...those are the ones to stay away from, but that goes for any car.

Why is everybody here telling a current owner of an ss/sc to get another car? Why didn't you people get an SRT-4 to begin with if they are so great? They are cheaper than the ss/sc anyway.

Probably b/c they aren't in production anymore... and finding a used one that hasn't been beat to hell is hard.

I still vote SS/SC, I think all around its a better car than the SRT-4, but more practical than something like an s2000
I cant really say on the evo front though, but I still like the balt better just from impressions

I'm a little confused. You had an SS/SC and lemon lawed the thing right? If this is the case I would not touch the SS/SC because who's to say you will not get another junker!

Because not every car is going to be a lemon.
With this argument, you could say why bother buying any other car, it might be a lemon!

They would be the Calibers, not the Neons.
