A car that has aptly been dubbed the fastest production car available under $
20k. To those who don't understand, it can whip cars that cost $5,000-$10,000 more with more cylinders.
Most haters will tell you that it is just a Neon and that the owners think their car will beat any other car on the road in reverse. Well, the SRT4 is built from the Neon platform. Park two of them
side-by-side and the similarities are
glaring. That is where the resemblance ends. The Neon SRT4 cannot beat every car on the road.
Most haters hate because the just got toasted on the track/street by one and drove home angry to type their jealous
hate-filled rants on webpages like anyone cares what they think. Then they feel better about themselves and go off to their Honda/
Acura club meetings talking about how much they hate
SRT4's.
Then there are the haters who drive cars like the 2009 Mustang GT500's and say that the SRT4 doesn't stand a chance against a
real car. Well...... I guess not. You just spent $45k on a
supercharged V8. The SRT4 wasn't designed to compete with cars with that much power.
Why is it that I can't drive down the street without some kid in a Honda Civic or Acura whatever driving up beside me
revving up their weedeaters? Take your car back home and put on more stickers. Maybe if you add three more you can beat my moped. It has 10 horsepower too! And its not just
Honda's and
Acura's. I'm not just picking on them so all
the 15 year olds can relax. Its Nissan 350Zs,
Mazda RX8s,
Evos, Cobalts (I don't care how many letters and numbers you put behind it, it's still slow), Celicas, etc.
To sum it all up, we don't think we can beat any car on the road. We think we can beat the cars that we can beat. If you drive one of those, I'm sorry. If you spent more than $20k on your car thinking if you pay more it will be faster, I'm sorry. If you think they aren't reliable because your friend who owns one tried to boost the
psi to 150 and blew the engine apart, you're friend is a moron. I run 21psi on stock internals with 85k miles and the only major problem I've had is a burnt clutch. These cars are very reliable and can be easily upgraded with
bolt-ons to increase horsepower.
Its funny how people run and hide when confronted with facts.
