I like it. It looks like high standing mini magnum, ive even heard the nickname "m&m" It sure beats the neon that it replaced

Its pretty cheap and flimsy but that being said I drove a couple and the world engine is incredibly smooth even upwrds of 5 grand.The cvt trans is a little strange but unless you are looking for actual shifts,you hardly notice it.And yes it is at least a million times better than that pos neon,but it still is a little pos itself

I'm looking forward to when dodge releases the price tag on the calibur SRT and if it remains relatively low, well screw college funds. I reeally like this car it's like a mini but still sporty and sleek and you don't get the feeling you are driving an SUV.

I test drove one the other day and was quit impressed.

I like them except for one thing; I am 6'3 and got in one the other day and immediately bashed my knee on the center console. Okay, maybe I am just clumsy and the seat wasn't adjusted right. So, on getting out, after making all my adjustments, I bashed my knee again in the same spot. After realizing why, I saw it as a faulty design for taller people. Don't think I will be getting one.

All you people dissing the Neon can go suck a lemon because it was a great car for its price. Yes the Caliber is an improvment in many areas but that doesn't mean the Neon was no good. I bet everyone who picks on it never even drove one.

i like the car.... but my only piff with it is its a wagon..... personnally im a coupe guy, but ive driven vibes, and magnums ( i love the magnum) , and pt's, but not the new chevy one hhr. and i have no problem with them. but to me size matters, and im 5 '7 and small cars are fun. i wish it had a stick.

I went and checked out the Caliber at the dealership this weekend and was really impressed. All the cool features really add to it, especially the iPod holder and the flip-out speakers in the back. For the price, it looks like a great deal.

Don't forget the pull out flashlight! What a novelty.

I even thought the cooler in the glove box was really cool. I'd never really seen a car in person with all these new age features rolled into one, especially at a low cost.

It's not that bad a vehicle I don't think but I just can't get in and out w/o smacking my knee on the center console. Complete turn off for me.

I'm 6'4" and when I got in, I just moved the driver's seat back, and didn't have any problem. It could be a lot worse, that's for sure. It definitely has a lot more space than my lady friend's Land Rover, a big car, that I can barely fit in b/c of the lack of driver seat space. The Caliber was far more comfortable for me (not that I am comparing the two cars by any means....just the driver space).

300 HP SRT-4 Caliber coming soon. Looks cool, a guy from my work is looking at one though I would rather have a AWD SRT-4 Caliber rather then FWD.
