Just bought a new Chevy HHR today. I'll be taking delivery of it on Tuesday evening.

My roommates will take my Jeep Grand Cherokee off my hands and they'll get rid of their ****box 1994 Chevy Trailblazer with the rust holes and completely failing electrical system.

Just walked in the door from a stressful, emotional day and night and I just want to say that today a nice long 70 mph run with the tops down and the wind in my hair saved my sanity. Pulling into my driveway a moment ago, i had to pause and run my hand over her fender flair... I love my car.

goodnight all. :cheers:

you realize we are mortal enemys right? :silly:

this srt4 vs speed3 thing is starting to get big!

I test drove an SRT-4 about two years ago. Wanted to buy one but the timing wasn't right. They should've kept the SRT-4 as a Neon body style, I'm not a big fan of the Caliber SRT-4.

Either way, I'd take the Mazdaspeed 3 in a race any day.

whoa whoa WHOA. Race? :D

Let me rephrase, I'd take the Mazdaspeed 3 over the SRT-4 in my choice to win that race. Quarter mile for example.

SRT-4: 14.2

Mazdaspeed 3: 14.0

My Honda Civic Si doesn't even come close at 14.9. Although I'm sure the lack of turbo makes all the difference in that one.

All above numbers are from stock models.

I was just messing with you dude. :) I actually wanted a SI at first but then I drove the Speed3 and never looked back.

I wanted a Nissan Altima Coupe 3.5 originally... Then I realized I could get a fully loaded Si for less than I could get a base Altima. That sealed the deal for me. I couldn't be happier I made that deciscion, the Si is so much fun to drive. Six speed manual freaking rules!:silly:

who cares about what it does stock?!?! :silly:

but seriously in a race the winner could go either way. its really down to the driver. .2 of a second isnt a big enough difference to really say one will own the other.

the neon srt had its time. it was loud, aggressive, and dont get me wrong it was fast. the caliber is much more refined and thats why i went with it. remember this is still the first production year of the new srt4. people are writing it off way too early, and i know down the road its going to surprise some people. imo its a worthy sequel to the 2003 - 2005 srt4.
