A new SRT-4 (2004-2005 is very new to me) would be reliable and in case it ever did break down early, it would be relatively inexpensive to fix.
I just want to know if it's a turd or not. I know Neons don't have a perfect track record, but this isn't a regular Neon, so hopefully it will be better and more quality. I just want to go fast and go reliable  |
I have a regular 2001 Neon. Never had any mechanical issues. I did have the window motor die and it was warranty replaced.
As far as anything of the sports segment is concerned anything you drive that you push harder than conventional stop and go/highway traffic, you'll experience more maintenance. Evo and Subaru's have some pretty hefty maintenance when the things that normally would last longer in other vehicles like clutches and brakes get worn faster.
