went down to dodge today in fullerton... saw a few calibers. and yeah, they lok even worse in person!!! why do they only come in that ugly reddish color ???

 

I couldn't agree with you more. They had one at the local car show here a few weeks ago, and boy are they fugly. I can't wait to see one on the street so I can laugh at the person.

 

i actually stopped at the dealership today on my way into work and looked at the. they had a black one on 20's and i have to say it looked pretty good, or should i say much better than what i expected. it just looked like a small magnum.

 

and incase you didnt notice, this is the NEON SRT4 section

 

yes, and the Caliber replaced the Neon... and the SRT4 Caliber will replace the SRT Neon... so it's not too far fetched to say that we don't care for the styling of a car that replaced ours... just my $0.02...

 

what teh hell is wrong with you people. just because you don't care for a car doesn't mean u have to bash it. open your eyes and take off those neon tinted glasses and see teh beauty of this hatchback. and if anyone calls ti an SUV, you are just plain retarded.

 

exactly, the caliber is much nicer, more powerful, and a better value than the neon if you look at power to your dollar. the caliber pwns the neon, which is hard for me to say because i absolutly love my sx.

 

Why not post in an existing thread with the other blind dudes with neon glasses on... instead of making a new one... get over losing the poorly built, underpowered Neon...

 

Inferno Red is one of the nicest colors you can get on any Chrysler vehicle IMO. Why do you need to waste another thread with this Caliber is crap thing. I'll bet you $100 this will sell 10x better than any Neon ever did in any year. Its already got a ton of exposure and Dodge hasn't even started advertising it yet (until today).

Take a look at Dodge's other models that are supposed to be "cool" and "good looking", they aren't selling at all, like the Dodge Magnum and Dodge Charger for example. I have yet to see more than 2 on the road passing me in one direction or the other. In 2 years of selling these cars and there's virtually no Chargers or Magnums on the road. Maybe you should turn you're negativeness to a different topic. One that actually makes sense.

 

Some of these negative posts really amaze me. Up to now I have only really visited Ford forums, and I do not think I have ever seen so much knocking of inter-company vehicles in my life. I hate to see what some of you guys do to non-Chrysler brands.

Also thanks Wolfish, I am glad to know that the community values my contribution and first Chrysler vehicle by laughing at me when I drive it. At least I know people like you are in the minority, because my family, friends, and the person who's opinion matters most, the girlfriend, all think the Caliber is cool as hell and love the cars ride and the fun toys it has. These same people think the Neon is ugly and would NEVER consider one.

So obviously the Caliber is good enough looking to make a majority of people look twice at it and take interest in a Chrysler product who would just be "laughing" at the Neon if it was still around.

I have always thought the Neon was ugly, the SRT twice as much because of that stupid (sorry) rounded wing in the back. YUK!
