SRT4tech.com NOT....I'm going for the LS1. Give it another year or so and those Neons' (let's not forget thats what they are) will be CHEAP. Dodge products have very low resale value, and there is a reason for it. It's not a conspiracy, its reality, they just aren't as desirable for a reason.

... Dodge does not have low resale value.. If my dad went to sell his 03 Viper SRT-10 he would get 75k for it.. And the srt-10 ram.. resale value not low neither... maybe the low priced cars yea.. we will still get 16-20k
And what about those pics of ur cars guys.send me some..

other than the axles he has pretty much the same stuff as you. He thought he was going to put down that type of power also but was very shocked when he didnt,and looking at you list that is alot of money and mods to go 11si went 11s on under 3500 in mods--------in the srtforum his name is badazzsrt4

While yes the neon above spent a load of money to go 11s it will be a beast from a roll. I wouldnt doubt for a second that it would suprise a 1/2 second faster n/a f-body on the highway. Then again it is nice knowing that we can go 11s with next to nothing invested. Lid, catback, 150 pill? hello 11s lol

Anyone know how the neon got its name? When people get into it they hit there knee-on everything. idk I didnt make it up.
The new srt-4 is a nicr car but I wouldnt be able to bring myself to say I own a neon. I mean im used to seeing the old neos driving down the street with rice burners and those stupid body kits.

veXati0n- no offence but thats ****** retarded to post a question like that in a CAMARO forum, you have to get an opinion by someone that doesnt like/ does like both/ neither, thats the only fair way, i personally, like 99 % of the people here love the camaro, but the SRT-4 isnt a bad car, good gas mileage, has SOME speed, but get the Z28
ls1 camaro 
I don't car if its considered a mopar I'll take an ls1 over a neon anyday

If you're trying to say you haven't dumped alot of money in that car you're full of ****.
Here's your list without all the non-performance mods. I took out the carbon fiber **** too but I could have left it, "weight reduction".
It doesnt matter if it's not alot of money to you, that adds up to some cash. I dont care if it's faster, I wouldnt drive your car if you gave it to me. This is an LS1 board, we are going to recommend the LS1.

all i know is i have a 97 z28, with the lt1 (less power than the ls1) and the t56 6speed with a flowmaster catback and i beat srt-4s from a drop or from standstill.
plus the ss will get 150mph stock and definitley beat the neon in every performance aspect possible. and one SLP installed option on the SS is stiffer struts and suspension so it should ouhandle a srt4

Stock LS1's will hit the 162 mph limiter and knock on the door of 170mph with the limiter removed.
His SRT-4 is far from stock. Stock for stock LS1 > SRT-4 all day. Once the modding begins its all about money.
SRT-owner, to each their own.:p

8 pages, ah why not add my $.02...
A good friend of mine had a SRT-4. He spent close to $10k getting the motor built, and turbo system upgraded. The car ran right for less than a week before it blew up. Granted I think it was the builder's fault. My buddy, completely financially exhausted at this point decided to cut his losses and sell the car (he owned it outright.) The car just sold for $8k. Now my same buddy is considering buying a F-Body, or another SRT. I try and tell him it was a sign to get out of the skittle, but he disagrees.
I drove a Stage ? upgraded neon. I was impressed. Not as impressed however as driving my old modded WS.6. In the end you have to drive the car. Not us. Hell I imagine you could post on just about any forum as to which car the majority would rather have. Chances are they're going to pick the make of the car that the forum is based around.
