SRT-4 is fast ....but it's stil a Neon.It's like getting a gold medal in the special olympics ... (no offence to anyone who may have been in these, or knows people/family, all that stuff...) Also looks like that car is about to sneeze ... always kinda bothered me

Sure, he couldn't beat the Ferrari, but man did he embarass the Mustang!

I'll believe it when I see it. The one I ran didn't have a chance.Total Bench racing here, but by the specs, looks like GT weighs less, puts out +20 hp, -20ft/lb tq, and a close ratio 6-speed...plus the addition of my intake, exhaust, wires, springs, and few other randoms things, come on over! We'll see who's "special"!I'll even go from a stop! Then we can go from a roll, at say about, oh, 25 mph in first gear? Ya, that should put me right around lift!

My good buddy has a 04 SRT-4 and it is unreal. He already pre-ordered the Stage 2. He told me it got shipped on Monday, and he will be installing it next week. 288hp in a Neon ain't to shabby.

Wow.....thats the slowest 0-60 time for a GT I have seen. Here is one from carstats.com. They don't have any info about the Mazda 3 yet. http://car-stats.com/stats/sho....aspx UPDATE: The link doesn't take you straight to the Vibe GT page, but they list it at 0-60 in 7.3 seconds and the 1/4 mile in 15.7 seconds.Jim

I was thinking that was rather slow, but I didn't say anything. Must not have launched hard. You gotta rev that crap to 5,000 and drop the clutch! Especially if it's a test vehicle!
