Dart SRT ideas requested by Ralph Gilles

Ok "kids" (16-76) since so many Dart questions have come in, what type of HP levels, drive train layout and what price would you expect?

Other than current SRT versions of the Dodge Charger and Challenger, Chrysler 300 and Jeep Grand Cherokee, Gilles says he's been flooded with email from Dodge loyalists asking for an SRT version of the new compact Dodge Dart.
"We are looking at an SRT Dart and are interested in whether there is a business case for one. But I can't talk about it now. How soon could we have one? I can't talk about that, either," he says, smiling.
"You can always make a case for performance, but you can't go too far all at once. It's best to go higher performance in increments, so that one (rival’s) car will always be ahead of the others, but only for a while."

I now think there is going to be an SRT4 very soon and that Gilles and Bigland have been toying with us. I am subscribed to SRT on Facebook and the picture of the Dart RallyCross they posted today has what looks like the SRT badge in the left bottom of the grill. I'll see if it'll post:

it is a dodge double red stripe emblem (from https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...ay2712Twitter1)
(your pic properly linked/embeded)
and you really changed your mind from
based off of a long distance pic of an out of focus emblem? you sure this page didnt have anything to do with it? https://dodgeforum.com/forum/the-new...dart-srt4.html
where I listed 3 credible sources confirming the SRT Dart; one of which is writen by our very own BadStratRT.

There are no plans for an SRT Dart, no matter what car magazines and "insiders" are saying.
The SRT Group is taking their products upmarket and a fancy econocar doesn't fit with the new strategy.
However, Mopar is going to support the Dart in club racing, so you'll probably be able to make a DIY SRT Dart.

Never read it. Just going by what was written in Motor Trend and Automobile online. They have quoted Gilles (off the record) as saying a new SRT4 could easily be made based off the RallyCross car. This is just 1 week after Gilles and Bigland said there were no plans for an SRT4. I think they are trying to stir up controversy, just like is happening here, then unveil the SRT4 without notice. Also, I think the photo sizing is a skosh off.

sorry cant do anything about the photo size cause thats how big the
origional images are. I simply find the pics i want to use, right click on
the pic and select properties, copy the address url, then paste it into
the post.
And here is the important part....after that add [ img ] infront of the url
and [ /img ] after the url (with out the spaces)
and no photo shop here, just linked imaged from the net.
BTW the last one was from a canadian comedy called Trailer Park Boys.
