The Dodge Neon SRT-4 was cheap speed — and it was an icon of its era. Today I’m reviewing an SRT-4 ACR to show you what made the SRT-4 special, and I’m …
My car! Never thought I'd see an actual ACR on here. I'm the single owner of my flame red SRT, bought new in 2005 now with 66k and am very proud to hear the positivity.
Just a thought for the Doug Score ratings – maybe consider a "for the segment" or "for the era" set of ratings – I understand that doing all of the ratings is difficult and somewhat subjective anyway but it seems like the SRT-4 that was made in 2004 and was selling in the low 20's and did 0-60 in 5.4 seconds deserves more than 4/10 for acceleration (unless you are using a scale that has to include hypercars or the Tesla P100D like the Doug Score does) but that said, I am sure you get plenty of opinions on the scoring system and there is probably a good reason – it is what it is. It is shocking how nice of shape that car is in for having over 120K miles on it… It has to be the nicest Neon in the world with that many miles by far.
I got mine "solar yellow" in February of 03 nobody knew what it was back then. Everyone thought it was just a neon with a wing. it was sooooo much fun smoking integra's and rsx's! this car produced alot of jdm tears.
I would be curious of your thoughts on a 03' Mitsubishi Eclipse GTS Coupe. However, like this car, you would probably have a hard time finding one that is in decent condition.
This dude shakes his head waayyy to fuckin much for me. I made it to the engine bay and was getting motion sickness symptoms. Uhh, hey doug, dude you can just hold your head still and look at the camera when you talk, everything else is optional.
Thanks Doug for the straightforward review of the Dodge Neon SRT-4. Telling it like it is. That's what I enjoy about your reviews and the quality that makes them valuable to me. But, wow! Roll down rear windows. Smart and stupid at the same time. That says 2000's Dodge all over.
