The guy said flat black accents when I was watching the feed, and in the actual pictures it appears flat black.

I could be wrong though.

*edit*
It is CF....but I'm not sure if it's DiNoc or not, this is the best picture I could find:

i would assume that it's either DiNoc or something similar. most likely it's something that mopar makes

There were some "carbon fiber looking" markings/trim on many of the Challenger SRT-8 hoods.

Now that you say that Lane I recall that. I'm assuming it's a thick decal.

There are some things i like and dislike about the motor trend story. If it comes out second quarter with close to 300hp we will all agree that is a nice fit with the increase in weight. I think in many of our eyes it has surpassed the Caliber even before coming out on the market for sale. I hope to god that it does not book for $30,000. With a better engine I understand the need for an increase in price. I'd say 24k-25k would be more appealing for us and something that we really can't complain about. All I can say is that I hope I find a decent job so I can afford a new car and if this ends up being as good as all the hype then the NSRT4 becomes my DD and I will start fresh with this sexy lil jewel.

p.s. hoping for e-blue and stone white.

p.s.s. thats prob my yearly rant until 2013. k thanks

Not a very difficult task.

If a completely base, no-options model is $16k, then I'm guessing that the R/T will be over $20k. So having the SRT at $25k doesn't seem probable. At least I don't think so.

It really sucks, but... cars cost money.

So, to settle the arguments...

#1 - The roof is Di-Noc.

#2 - The SRT4 version of the Dart has just started being looked at in the past month, there is only small progress on it, everything posted thus far is untrue and purely speculation. These rumors are just that, rumors.

#3 - The Mopar Dart GTS210 had a ton of Mopar accessories on it. Front lip, spoiler, wheels, CF hood, Katzkin interior, dash top, intake, exhaust, coilovers, etc etc etc. Also, the interior is VERY comfortable. The in dash display is HUGE and is very easy to navigate. The cluster is really neat when it boots up and is easy to configure.

#4 - Ralph Gilles is very excited for the SRT4 Dart and is curious how well it would be received. He wanted to know what kind of HP, price and mods an enthusiast would like to see. Says he misses the NSRT4 and wants to keep it as true as he can to the NSRT. He also still drives a fully built Stage3 NSRT4 that he absolutely LOVES. He said its one of his favourite cars he's ever owned and that he loves the way it drives and handles. He also has almost every accessory they make for it on it lol. He's running more than 2.5 degrees of camber in the front on the street, says he likes the way it handles lol.

That's awesome that you got to meet him and talk to him about his car. Anyone know of any pics of it? It seems like he'd be on srt forums

You guys are actually liking it? I'm pretty disappointed in you all tbh. I know we all want a neon replacement but just because you want something really bad doesn't mean you have to accept crap. This car is terrible looking and when you compare it to how far the focus has come in looks, performance, and technology dodge is not even in the same ballpark anymore. The scion frs is so far ahead of any sport compact right now its not even an argument for me to make whether or not I will be buying it as my next car. But hey, if you really want to settle for subpar I'm sure dodge will have no problem selling you their next shitty version of the caliber.
