300HP and 260lb ft sounds nice, but this thing is fucking ugly. It looks like the lovechild of a Charger, Durango, and a Fuckin Pontiac Vibe




The all-new 2007 Dodge Caliber SRT4 demands to be driven. With its taunting 300 horsepower and tantalizing 260 lb-ft of torque, it simply screams excitement in your face. But we think you can handle it.

Grasping an H-pattern, center stack-mounted shifter, you’ll control a Getrag 6-speed manual transmission to command a 2.4-liter DOHC dual VVT inline turbocharged 16-valve 4-cylinder engine. In an instant you’ll feel 300 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque—enough energy to thrust you back in your seat.

It’s designed to dazzle and produced to perform—with ride and handling characteristics that are equally comfortable on the street or track. The all-new 2007 Dodge Caliber SRT4 features an Electronic Stability Program* (ESP) that’s uniquely calibrated to help maintain directional control. It rides on SRT-unique 19-inch cast-aluminum wheels with Goodyear tires. And it includes an upgraded front suspension with tuned dampers and revised spring rates.

Dodge Caliber SRT4 brakes were designed to look hot with performance that’ll help you keep your cool. Front and rear brake calipers are painted Dodge SRT Red for an element of style, while the vehicle’s four-wheel antilock braking system is uniquely calibrated for ultimate operation. It’s the kind of stopping power you’d expect from a vehicle designed for the street and track.

The muscular exterior styling of Dodge Caliber SRT4 is as bold in its form as it is in its function. Get this: The assertive, dynamic front fascia, which helps give the vehicle its SRT style, also directs airflow to cool the brakes. To enhance performance, hood scoops bring cool air into the engine compartment while extractors remove hot air.

The hood scoop was jacked from the SRT8 charger, and the front end screams Durango, either way, ugly

The body is like identical to the Vibe

Kinda looks like a matrix too.

Matrix/Vibe are basically the same cars

I'll stick to my suby, that thing puts the F in fuckin ugly.

maybe, but as ugly as it looks now, even if it looks 30x better in person, it's still gonna be ugly

I agree x2

performance wise it will be on par. I didnt like the looks at first but they are growing on me a little. Just think of it this way 4 doors and a hatch will give you practicality and then at the same time it can haul some ass. We already know the power plant is good and now its mated with a 6 speed
