Nice SUV

scneonchic · Post by **scneonchic** » Mon Oct 09, 2006 6:10 pm

yeah...I know its not everyones cup of tea...but it acutally handles very well to be a midsize suv, plus lots of room.

Im trying to take extra good care of it for the future so maybe I can trade it in on a volvo s40.

Might have to take real good care of it for a long time if you're waiting for Volvo to make a good looking car.

nope....I wish I wouldve researched a bit more when I got this car, I thought a volvo would be out of my price range right now, and later I saw that I couldve got one for the same price as my caliber.

S40 FTW

Looks Good!

Pictures look great... I'm still not much a fan of the Caliber though

At least it's out of the shop, though... For now.

out of the shop??

I never took it in to get the bumper fixed. Its barely noticeable. Ill probably have it fixed in early 07. I want them to do some more work on it for me then and I need to save.

I think he meant the whole exhaust rattle problem...

scneonchic · Post by **scneonchic** » Mon Oct 09, 2006 9:50 pm

oh yeah...i guess since I finally fought my way into gettting it fixed, Ive kinda forgotten I ever had that problem

I thought he meant the bumper where someone parked behind me and I hit them.

down with the POS.... Thats the reason the neon is gone.... Lets hope Dodge figures out they made a mistake and bring back the Neon in 2009

i heard rumor that the srt4 was coming back as a 2 door version, but with only 200hp from the factory. and you could upgrade to the 230hp if you wanted as an option. i thin kautomatic will be offered also. the interior is supposed to be nicer looking more based on the caliber and stuff. iunno though i just read it somewhere. maybe i had it mixed with the srt-4 caliber?

caliber is lookin good though. not the biggest fan of them, but ill agree with you because i have drove one and they do drive nice and smooth and handle well for what they are. and yes S40 FTMFW

I don't think I even knew that happened... Must've missed that post. I just remember when the stealership had it for a month or whatever...

^ she never really explained it..... just posted asking for an 03+ headlight she needed

yeah...I was parked in my spot. My bf's sister was parked right behind me instead of in her spot BESIDE me and I couldnt see over the caliber, even though I looked to make sure it was clear. and BAM. I had to replace her headlight and have her bumper repainted. Hers was fixed w/in the month...the paint at least. Mine is still waiting

I wish I woulve waited for the light khaki metallic to come out. It was the very last color released after they discontinued the soloar yellow. I saw a pic of a lt. khaki rt and it was beautiful

bump to the top!

From what i've heard! the SRT-4 Caliber is gonna be AWD, like the R/T, and both the R/T and SRT-4 will have the 6-speed option.

300-310 WHP! rock on! i never thought dodge would try and blow all the other companys out of the water when if comes to the other vehicles in it's class with this thing!

Hell! the SRT-4 was overkill for low-priced power plants, now they've just kept shooting the allready out of the water companies.

Muah... MUHAHAHA

now they just need to bring back the Rumble-bee package for the 1500. So i can get a truck to pull my caliber around on here in about 5 years.

Is that what it is called now? I would call it a compact suv

I drove the RT one with the six speed auto-shift thing, and I was NOT impressed. My ACR would toast it, for half the price

But actually, I would own one - would have to be an SRT4 though - which I will test once my dealer gets one.

I've always been a fan of the S40's. Don't know too much about them other then I saw a brand new T5 with what appeared to be some kind of factory lip kit on it and it was HOT.
