Look at this SRT, I thought it was a mispost at first and that the dealer just that some neon owner but srt stickers, wheels and wing and passed it off...but the interior looks ligit as well as brakes and you can barely see the FMIC. However every else exterior-wise it has a 2000-02 front bumper/ headlights, no side skirts, and 03 sxt rear bumper? WTF it says it was in a minor fender bender "supposedly explaining the weird stuff.

i saw this about a week ago... it says that the owner 'ran into another car'

00-01 front bumper and the 03+ R/T rear. Not sure about this one. Although it does have rear disc brakes.

yeahhh i saw this a few weeks ago and was very confused. Interior looks like srt-4 and thats where the similarities ended... If it hit another car why would that mean the sideskirts had to come off? odd. And an '01 front end that fits horribly. it wreaks of fail.

I really like the SRT sticker being applied directly over another sticker/badge on the trunklid.

Seems fishy to me.

Well it does have the srt-4 motor in it, but then again that could have been a pic taken from another yellow srt

ok just realized that if that was a true srt-4 then why are the headlights of a earlier 2000 neon.
lol anyways whoever had that car really messed its good looking oem style up.

I don't see why somebody would do a SRT suspension/drivetrain/interior swap, but not do the exterior other than the spoiler. I think it's a true SRT. I think the exterior is explained by the previous owner wrecking it, being an idiot, and trying to make it somewhat of a sleeper.

Either way, I'd rather buy a low milage wrecked SRT for that price and swap a lower milage SE/SXT than buy that high milage junker.

If you are going to bring a useless thread back from the dead, at least use proper grammar; Real words would help too.
