Proof of what? www.4adodge.com ... is that what you are looking for? Dodge is producing this car and it should be in showrooms by the end of 2k3.

This is big news, and I'm shocked.
Dodge? Neon? Balls? Neon? Well, if it handles good, this could be the next big thing.

Neon SRT
Man, thats the hottest Neon i have ever seen. It is almost unimaginable that there is a Neon with 205 hp. Is the car gonna get to production??? With that much HP and speed it will beat the competition like the Mazda MP3 with a weak 135hp .
205HP? That means ita gonna be right next to the leader of the class, the Subaru WRX with 225HP. Lets just hope the price is as good as the car!!! :alien: :flash: |

I like it i must say , anyway it's not a car for me , but i'm nicely suprised by dodge i have to admit it. But it's still FWD , right? Then not much modifiyng can be done , because FWD cars can't handle over 300hp mostly...

Also of note too, I live in Phoenix where the temps get to 115+ in the summer, so cars here work harder and parts (rubber, hoses, etc.) go quicker than cars in places with less extreme temperatures. As for modifying them, they can handle more than 300hp if you do your stuff right and make a few upgrades. A friend of ours with a Neon designed his own turbo system on the computer and had someone build it for him. The project took about 6 months to complete. He sent a few Viper owners home from the races pissed off I think at one point it did 11 sec or so in the žmile, a few years ago when that was considered impressive. Now there are 8 and 9 second cars out there. He returned it to stock to sell...I have some pics of it at home that I can post in a bit...I am heading home from the office now. |

Well - after seeing this car in person yesterday at the Milwaukee Auto Show, I can tell you it's definitely for real. According to the rep. from Dodge, the car will be released in a few months for $19,000!!! Along with that, Dodge will support the car with an entire line of aftermarket mods from MOPAR, sort of like the WRX. Great concept.. I say good for Dodge. It's about time the U.S. car companies woke up and got in on the action.
As for quality, one can only hope it'll be screwed together better than my friend's '96 that literally fell apart at 90,000 miles.

I just wish it were rear or all-wheel drive, because a puller is automatically off my list But its alot better than some of the other options out there in the fwd category (ie, civic, focus, GTI), as long as it can handle worth a darn.

It is real and MSRP is set at $19,995.
It's a beautiful machine and the fastest sub-compact sports car you can buy for less then $20,000. It will wreck havoc on all imports and be a terror on the streets. Front-wheel drive cars can most certainly handle over 300hp, it's all about the driver. However, I agree with chris in the respect that I believe it should've been rear-wheel...all-wheel maybe, but the thought of loosing power on the AWD drive-train doesn't sound too appealing...I mean, yah you get a wonderful launch...but that'll be all she wrote. However, if you were to spend $20,000 on your 1st gen Neon, you could most certainly tear the SRT-4 a new one. It's got impressive stats for off the floor stock, but with what you can do to the older ones in after market parts...I'm probably going to stay with my baby!

Well, Dodge has stated that the specs are different now. They are saying 215HP and 235 ft/lbs of torque. And Dodge is making complete aftermarket support for modding these babies. For $20,000 you can buy an SRT modd the hell out of it and tear most cars a new asshole.
