The evolution exceeds this as ive done off roading in this vehicle. The srt4 has the FWD advantages (you know lol) Regardless, the aftermarket will dicatate which plateform will out run/handle which 
The srt4 to me is a break out car where the domestic automakers have decided to come out with a 4cyl that would compete with many of cars of higher class (price)
Not only does is it recieved with a very respectable 1/4 time sand reasonable handling stats, but the vehicle itself is VERY robust. Thanks to a Mitsubishi turbo charger, they have the advantage of using a proven, well built turbo with MHI research and production backing new turbo's for the srt4.
I applaude Dodge/Chrysler for not obeying the bean counters and letting the visionaries produce fun cars. GM should take note.

You know what. I think you should look at the R32. It's probably the most overpriced vehicle out there right now. And since you already own a 350Z you should be very familair with that feeling. Stick to what you know.

All silliness aside, I do think that it is great of Dodge to come out with something like the SRT. Even though I don't like them, hopefully this is a sign of things to come that will be reminiscent of the 70's muscle-car battles between the big three and will benefit all of us no matter which "little engine that could" we like best.

They have any of those flashes for 05's yet?
Love to get a new exhaust too, the stocker is pretty silent, wonder if i can by pass that active exaust thingy?
Some of the newer cars have an updated flash in them that hasn't been hacked enough yet ( last I checked ) to re-flash them. You could use a piggy-back, like the XEDE, and just take it off before you go in and they wouldn't know.
Me, I don't take my car to the dealer for ANYTHING. I've only got 15K on mine so far, but unelss I had an engine failure I wouldn't take it in. And if you do, be careful that they don't try to sneak in that "updated flash".
