Caliber SRT-4

today at work we got our first 08 caliber srt4. i got to do the pre-delivery inspection and take it for a 4 mile test drive. it looks good (for a caliber) and i love the seats. way better than the neon srt4.

but damn this thing is SLOW! the feeling of boost kicking in is nice but once you look at the speedo you realize its just an illusion. its a pig. and its got MAD torque steer and wheel hop. a mess.


if you havent seen one this is it:

it has the same shape as a vibe but actually in person it looks pretty sleek. it has the exact same powerplant as the neon so since this is a much bulkier car yeah its a dog.

My father's g/f has one, not an SRT-4 but the standard caliber, and never was a fan of it. IMO just another ugly four cylinder

I hate all these bubble/van/car/truck things. they all look soooo gay. all the modern cars now just look like **** to me, they have no style, it looks like they just made up any design that looks as gay as possible that will fit 25 people inside for all the families.

I hate almost anything newer than 05. I also hate the people they get sold to becuase about 90% of people here that drive a new car drive like retards and think theyre invincible. Mostly because they are snobby, and rich. just my .02.

i dont like them bubble things either, the HHR is kinda cool cuz it reminds me of an old chevy truck and they ride nice.
