Dodge killed the extended warranty on SRT-4's,which sucks......Dodge got the wake up call after the large number of warranty claims on the first year model (2003) of the SRT-4. Shortly after I bought my my '04 model in Dec of '03, they changed the warranty......too late Dodge!!!!!! Make that 283 for Dodge, 1 for Dusty........

Not too bad looking for an SUV. I'd delete that antenna and mount a fin to the rear roof. From a price standpoint of 24k, I would definately go witheither aChrysler Crossfire, Volvo C30, Mini Cooper S, 07' Benz C-Class manual, or Mazda 6 S

Public school plastic chairs are nicer. (interior)
HahaHHAhahAaaga!!!

I just got my brillian Silver caliber SRT4 in a few days ago, posted up my write up about it in the caliber section. Know for those who hate the styling, you haven't drove a caliber yet. And you really haven't drove the SRT4 yet. Soft seats for the long drives, no more hard bolster pokeing my ribs out, and for the 6 foot 200 plus crowd..Plenty of room to stretch out in, so i got mini SUV room, slick styling, 19 inch wheels, 27mpg, not five but six gears to play with, factory installed cruise, 285 stock hp..the list goes and goes....Stop buy your Dealer and test drive a Caliber SRT4..you will never look at your skittle the same again.

People calling it an SUV is getting pretty annoying. It is not.

I dunno, but the Subaru WRX STi looks pretty mean this year....if you can cough up the extra 10-12K or so......

^ No, the new STi fails almost as much as the new SRT4 Caliber. Almost, but not quite. And the new Evo X fails worse than both of those two put together......[:'(]
