In my area there was only 3 SRT-4's that were under 35k on the miles and even fewer that had the options I wanted..
All were between 18-19k out here. I could have probably gotten one cheaper if I waited or shopped out of state.. but oh well.

Test Driving is sorta how I got in this mess

I walked in there telling myself I wasn't going to drive off in it... that lasted about 1/4 into the test drive.

Exactly. Although given the difference between R/T sways and SRT sways, I'd prefer the R/T. The setup is a little less balanced toward understeer simply because they knew lots of morons would drive them too fast around corners and end up in trees.

You don't want to just throw a set of bars on a car, with nothing else. It could very well be worse than it is.

I also plan on adding a set of KYB struts with lowering springs and a rear strut bar. Don't think I'll do the front strut bar because it looks like it'll make it hard to get to the clutch and brake master cylinders to keep em' topped off. I'm also going to get some 205/50/15's as soon as I can even before all the suppension work. The 185/60 Yokohamas that are on it really suck.

Unless the brakes are worn down or there is a leak, then the brake fluid will never be low. It is best to not top off the brake fluid.

Yup... big mistake.. had some issues with it anyways.. It was too expensive in hindsight... ah well there will be others.
At least they gave me my Neon SXT back... WITH A DEAD BATTERY!!! I had to go out and buy a new one this morning.

dont put pb blaster on it. all u need is heat gun. it doesnt take much to take them off then get some adhesive remover yes i know what im talking about i use to be a detailer at a dodge dealership..!! and dont use a credit card it will peal off with ur fingers but done leave the heat on one spot too long !
