Default The world's fastest production 4-cylinder car

In 2006, the Dodge SRT-4 officially become the world's fastest production 4-cylinder car, averaging 221 mph (356 km/h) at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah in a car built by Dave Harris and Phil Hurst for Racedeck Racing. When the SRT-4's power plant was put on the engine dyno, it had surpassed well over 1,000 horsepower (1,087 hp/811 kW) without the aid of nitrous oxide (n2o) The car used the stock body, basket wing, transmission, engine block, and even crankshaft while running in excess of 235 mph (378 km/h) during the run.

Thanks for posting the picture
I don't think the Caliber SRT-4 will sell as well as the original SRT-4, but only time will tell. The interior is definitely an upgrade; the exterior is not too exciting.

Although I thought the styling of the neon SRT-4 was terrible, the caliber is even worse.
