2003 Dodge SRT-4 review from North America
"Finally an American auto manufacturer turbo's a car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
CD player made a clicking noise, but was fixed by the dealer, that's about it for now.
General comments?
On uneven freeways like the 710, the car will "hop" because of the stiff suspension, which isn't that bad.
The car has some body roll on tight turns, which could be remedied with a little lowering.
My biggest disappointment is the turning circle - it sucks!
Other than these small issues, the car is awesome. I should have waited for the 2004 SRT4 since that one will include LSD, the 2003 was a one wheel wonder. The engine was made in Mexico, but is still better than sending my money overseas... although pretty much every electronic I have was made in Japan - I guess I'm a hypocrite.
