15k now.
We still like ours, but I wish it was an SRT [8D]

 

6K and love it, wish I would have got the auto but stick is good and cant beat the gas mileage. Overall great car.

 

6500 and lovin it! Though, I'm really digging the Avenger at the moment. I'm going to test drive one tomorrow! Who knows what will happen then.

 

My SE Caliber w/CVThas 8500+miles & I love it more than ever. Runs tight & 100% with v.v.v. good Caliber mileage. Initially, I averaged 30+MPG. During the winter, Caliber fell to 28.4MPG. But with spring & summer gas, my average has risen to 29.4MPG & still rising.

 

And with the mileage you guys have, how is the car staying together ? Any rattles, front end problems, etc ??

04 SRT-10, 11,000 miles.

 

I have almost 8000 miles on it now and bought it in December. Have not had any problems and get about 27 mpg on the highway. I have the R/T FWD with CVT. I enjoy driving it everyday.

 

It's been a good, solid car so far jib.

 

If you guys saw the a Consumer Report article that the Caliber was a dissapointment due to road/engine noise, cheap plastics and based on the PT Cruiser which has not been updated for 5 years, do you concur? I agree with CR that my plastics in my Neon are cheap, it is a little noisy but for 9500 bucks new, it's no Lexus or Acura so.....take what you pay for. I want reliability and a solid car, no squeeks, rattles leaking. A little road noise is no problem, I drove my '64 Chevy C-10 with a 350, headers and dual 2 1/2" exhaust with glass packs, now thats noise!! Looks like you guys have a nice car.

Would you guys buy another Caliber with what you have experienced so far?

What transmission is the best choice? Not really knowing what they have, I know that the CVT is in the Calibers, but is it a good tranny? Get the manual? is there a regular automatic?

I hope the SRT-4 comes out, I would buy one of those in a heartbeat!!!!

My wife really likes the Calibers and I have an '05 Neon SXT-Orange Blast paint and she loves the paint but really likes the Caliber. May have to test drive one.

Thanks

I have 10,000 km on my 07 Caliber SXT 2.0L/CVT and really enjoy the driving
the car with all its quirky gadgets or features.
If your a get up and go type driver and don't require AWD I would say
go for the RT 2.4L FWD/5spd.
My mpg are averaging 2-3mpg less than advertised rates and I have learned
how to treat the CVT,it does not like jack rabbit starts with regards to mpg.
