IMO its still the baddest FWD car ever built, period. Haters hate on it, but its a really great car. I really loved mine, and a lot of people really hated it
If/when you start tuning it, either buy a mopar S2 ECU or an AEM standalone to begin with. Or if you have the money and lows are good enough for you, the mopar S3R is the shisit or the ultimate in factory driveability and speed ( my friends went 11.60@124mph with a S3R and 70shot with a 1.9 60ft time ).
If you can't tell.... Recently, I have started to miss mine..... Sold it with 27K miles on it for a 60K G35.
04 is also the best year. You know, dodge only planned to build 2500 SRT4s a year, and after 3 years, they built 27,000 !!!
