Bleach or no bleach, posting burnout pictures to make a car look badass is just sad. So I guess this tC must rape that SRT-4 because it produces more smoke.



Or how about this Z400? http://youtube.com/watch?v=LAEg8xstu1A. 30 hp with stubby tires and it's make more smoke than that SRT-4. Don't get me wrong, the new Caliber SRT-4 is a beast, but honestly, 300hp in a FWD car? Didn't Dodge learn from the Neon that putting that much power to the front wheels was a horrible idea? Guess not, guess that's why their reputation is in the ____ter.
You just don't get it, or DON'T want to get it. So I'll leave you be. At your age I guess you should have gotten the point, but I guess you need a few more years to fully understand. I can make a smokey burnot with a hyundai excel. That wasn't the point of the pictures. You're i NJ, so I'm sure if you goto Raceway park. You'll be seeing alot of my Silver Caliber SRT4. I'll leave it at that .

Munch I'm glad you like your SRT-4 but I like the neon SRT-4 better. LOL I just dont like big cars maybe because my father always buy SUV. The Caliber SRT 4 look like a SUV to me. If I was going to buy a turbo car that was made in the U.S. I would get the new turbo coblat or the solstice.

my friend just bought a caliber last week... i couldn't have the heart to tell him how crappy i thought the car was.... the interior quality is very very poor. things feel like they are made of extremely cheap plastics... just poor over all build quality.. also the interior look isn't very pleasing on the eyes ether. its like something you could build with a lego set

And the TC's interior is so great??????? Come on bro. I've burned my elbow and the cheap fabric that the armrest is made of plenty of times before I redid the cheap interior that the TC comes with. You could pick at the car all day and I can pick at the scions as well. I still do own a TC BTW. It's no BMW or Mercedez Benz What Caliber does he/she have the SXT

Munch, I hope you've realized that you have contradicted yourself in just about every single post in this thread.

Ever since I saw a SRT-4 (neon) on fire near the exhaust pipes, my apprehension of Dodge has rocketed. And no not backfiring or anything. Literally on fire... the guy didn't even seem to notice though!
Not to be taken offensively but, a Caliber SRT-4 definitely seems like a car for older men/women though who can't afford an actual sports car. Definitely puts down like one though.

this thread is pretty funny, being a tc owner with many srt owner friends, and having met munch before, id say that we have some jealous tc owners. I may not like the srt4 but its a killer platform. my roommates both own them, one with a little over 99k miles on it with pretty regular track visits running mid 12's and my other roommate has a low low 11 second car with 35k miles on it driven all summer long, plus plenty of others with virtually no major problems, that drivetrain can handle 450hp stock. and what's with the childish insults being thrown around, grow up

lol @ this thread...

the caliber srt4 is a fugly dodge with cheap plastic body cladding just about everywhere they could stick it.

but to the original point of the thread, the xb and the csrt4 are not even competitors of one another, so i'm not sure how this retarded comparison started. it's like comparing a tC to chevy aveo about how much faster it is. people don't buy scions for it's performance. but if defending an csrt4 to a scion makes people feel accomplished, than by all means, this thread is entertaining enough.

Owning cars for 2 years before reselling them IS a reason to worry about resale value. My tC was worth 17,700 after 1 1/2 years of ownership (despite the fact that I paid 16,700 for it). A Caliber after leaving the dealership drops a minimum of 20% in value. A AWD R/T from the dealer is $21,500, resale with 5k miles and perfect condition is $15,500 (SRT wasn't able to be quoted by kbb.com). That's about a 30% drop in value. An 5-spd tC from the dealer is $17,700, a 5-spd tC with 5,000 miles is valued at $17,200 on kbb.com.

I don't think so.
SXT

SRT4

You're right I don't see the difference either

Really??? You don't know me from a hole in the wall. My last 3 cars were a Mercedes C300, Dodge Caravan, and the TC. Maybe I should have just said ROOMY. BETTER????

The Xb was a daily driven POS. The Tc was my fun toy. Now it's time to get back to my racing roots. The Scion could NEVER be a real competitive track car.
