you guys no nothing about neons or srt-4's to start with. neons are essentally the same as srt-4's but the the body and drive train is different. Dodge used the pt criuser motor the 2.4 liter with a mitsubishi turbo on it dodge has a long history of using mitubishi parts and cars and slapping the dodge badge on it. Like the mitsubishi 3000 gt is the same as dodge stealth but the stealth body was based on a intrepid concept. and the mitsubishi mirage early 90's dodge and chrylser and eagle all used that car with diferent names but same motor and ervything. but there is one difference between what they did this time than before dodge ran that same 2.4 liter turbo motor in all of the dodge avengers sent to mexico instead of the v6 which we got in america or the dinky 4 banger. plus the the srt-4 is commonly called the dodge neon srt-4. plus theres more dodge was actually rally racinf the dodge neon srt-4 in rally a year before anybody ever got to by one from show rooms. how ever much you hate them you are never going to find a more capable car for less than 20,000 dollars any where even japan.it is the second fastest dodge car ever biult next to the viper. and the 2004 version has 230 hp and 250 lb/ft of torque. an these are 0-60's top speed and quater miles from 2 magazines.

Car and Driver: 0-60 in 5.6 seconds, top speed 153 mph

Sport Compact Car: 5.8 seconds, quarter mile 14.2 seconds

not sure for what year this is 2004 or 03 but that is very fast for the price. :P
