    Taste the rainbow..2004 skittle

    GLWS. Thats for real on this one because I took it as partial trade on my Fobra I sold. Really clean 2004 SRT-4. Its a stage 2 car, and I forgot how fun these are to drive. You cant zip around in this and not giggle from time to time. Boost hits fast and pulls hard. I'll be making a for sale thread when the time comes, but having fun playing with it now :)

    welcome to what everyone else has known for years :)

    nice clean car! From what you told me though its stock turbo, so if you do keep it the first thing you need to find is a factory crash bar for the front and ditch that useless oversized monster of an intercooler for something smaller. Any IC that requires front crash bar removal to fit is a waste on a stock turbo.

    That can be the next owners adventure. I'm just driving it, which is surprisingly fun!

    These cars are a riot. Reminds me of a Fox body. Just begs to be pounded on. First car I know of where they actually advertised a "no lift shift" feature.

    I know for 100% that my stage 1 car had it, and I thought they had it stock. My SS/TC Cobalt had it stock, maybe I'm thinking of that.

    I wasn't stage 1 for long, but im 99.44% sure that stock didn't have it. The Stage 2 and Stage 3 ads from Mopar touted the WOT shifting feature as a bonus so I have my doubts it was stock.

    Lol, can't argue that! They go for 6-9k on Craigslist. Good miles and un-riced srt I think I'm on the low side at 6 honestly

    9k?! LOL...

    just because someone asks for 9k doesn't mean it sold for 9k. It would have to be a damn good completely unmolested example to be worth 9k IMO

    I don't set the prices just reporting them, LOL. I agree. I'd figure they would be 3-5K cars by now but they seem to have held value pretty decent. I've seen people asking up to 12k for them. crazy.

    I don't pay attention to the prices on these, but I would have thought this would cost more than $6,000, especially if it's un-riced.
