    Its a great daily. Decent on gas, a blast to drive, and pretty darn roomy. Hit me up, it's time for our buy/sell habit to swing back my way. lmao

    problem solved, it comes with a clean red trunklid without any spoiler or holes so owner can choose which one he likes better

    I honestly think im on the low end of what it should sell for at 6, but I'm going to be looking for a quick sell just to get my mustang money out of it, so priced accordingly

    IMHO this is one of the best sounding srt's I've heard. It has some aftermarket catback with a resonator and has a great exhaust note. Not to loud, but very good tone

    The problem is a vast, VAST majority of these cars have either been riced or modded hard and abused. There were countless "back to stock" sales advertised on various forums as people stripped off aftermarket parts before selling the car itself.

    Honestly, I think you have a better chance of catching a unicorn than you do of finding one whose mods during its lifetime were just an exhaust and stage 1.

    Wish I wasn't jobless at the moment... Can't believe I'm actually saying this in public, but I've always kind of wanted one of these.

    What's the condition inside? Not sure I can talk the wife into it, but would make a sweet daily. I'm not sure she'd be willing to give up the '02 Toyota Echo though, haha. That little car is an awesome beater.

    Extremely clean. The only fault I can find is a little bolster wear on drivers seat which is to be expected

    At the time they were as quick as a Mustang GT for $19,995. Dodge pretty much reinvented the idea of a fwd performance car with it IMO. They basically teabagged the entire industry, and Ford's vaunted Fiesta ST and Focus ST would still get curb stomped by one in a straight line 13 years after it's introduction.

    I traded on my Focus SVT at the time as soon as I possibly could to get in one. Still one of the most raw and fun performance cars ever made for the money as far as I'm concerned. Then I cut a telephone pole in half with it.
