is it true that the srt4 wont b produced after 05?....and also I'm gonna b trading in my stang for another car within the next few months and was either thinkin about goin w/ the sti or the srt4...I need something that I can drive all year round ...I kno the sti cost a 10k more then the srt4...but if u guys had a choice which one would u pick

 

SRT-4... but I'm biased and completely loyal to Dodge... LOL!

Yes, it's true that '05 is the final production year for the car... it's a shame IMO... I think it would be great produced for years to come... but what a collectors item it'll be once the production halts in 2005.

Same here, I am rather biased but I got an SRT-4 even after considering an STi. If your in an area that gets lots of snow during the winter, then it may be more practical for you to get the STi for it's AWD. But if your like me and live where you only get so much snow then I would, and did, get the SRT-4.

 

Yup, I can think of a lot of ways to spend $10,000.......

 

Agree

 

i considered the sti and evo, and i'd say go w/ the srt-4 (well, we all did, didn't we?). however, if you insist on the awd (which is too heavy and kills hp), i would actually tell you to go w/ the evo- these guys will tell you that i always argue how poorly mitsu is doing in the wrc this year (the subie is dominating, 140 pts. compared to the mitsu's laughable 17 pts.), but for daily drivers, the evo is actually a much better car. the subie has more power, but also loses more in the drivetrain, and it doesn't handle on the street nearly like the evo.
BUT, the srt is (and was) my #1 choice- it's just a better car for so many reasons.

 

around here sti's go for about 40k so i wouldnt even consider it.

 

ouch...[:@]

 

Well if you have rough winters go for the AWD STi, it will do much better in these conditions. Otherwise dont spend the extra cash, get an SRT and spend $10,000 on mods !! [sm=icon_rock.gif]
