Anyone see any SRT-4s?

**scott5** · 12-14-2007, 02:38 PM

I am still ooking for a DD cause i am feeling worse and worse having to use my grandparents car.. So i started looking into cars since they get alot better mpgs, insurance is actually cheaper on the cars i am looking at and so on and so forth and i do alot of highway driving.. I have been looking at the wrxs and evos and cobalt ss's and srt-4s.. And i come to see that the Srt-4s are probably the best bang for your buck. Cause Evos are way to expensive for me still, WRXs are a good buy but still alil high and Am looking into cobalt ss's but i need more room and srt-4 has the cheaper insurance.... So has anyone seen any for sale locally? i am going to go look tonight so if someone could point me where to go check some out i would be thankful

the SRT4 is cheaper to insure than a cobalt SS??

now thats suprising.

the neon might be a good daily driver, but typically you only get between 28-32 high way MPG, and as low as 19 in city driving.

As a commuter car, you might want to look into the normally aspirated versions.

Yea... my good buddy had an SRT-4 for a couple years and didnt get any better gas mileage than my LS1... then he wisened up and got a LS2 GTO :)

Did you go back down and take a look at that one at that place near ur house? Where we looked at the truck?

Good luck scott. I'll let you if I see anything. I just bought a 97 Taurus the other day for the same reason. Don't have the extra cash to buy another fast ride.

look for a GTP. they are fun cars and not a ton on insurance. pretty responsive to mods too

Occasionally (every three minutes) I think about quitting my job. If that happens, I don't have a company car any more. I would have to trade the Stang in on a DD. I keep tabs on what's local. Right now, this would be it:
