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.

truth! i wanted a brand new skittle till i saw what they did to it, now i guess i'll just have to settle on probably an '05 with few miles.

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

DSM911 · 12-20-2007, 10:40 AM

Different strokes, if we all had the same taste we would all drive the same car.

Get a bigger sig please kthnx.

I think the new SRT4 is much better. I like the looks, it has a Getrag 6 speed, something like 280whp, etc. Only problem is its fwd.
