An 03 SRT-4 is more comfortable than an 09 LS???

Because they're a hell of a lot more uncomfortable than an SS... especially on a long trip.

they are probably the most comfortable seat ive sat in ever. and i work at bmw so ive sat in some nice seats..lol but nothin like these. and the weight of the car is a little higher and makes for a really nice ride very stiff but very nice. and of course the fact that it will do a 13.5 in a 1/4 mile. :) lol

Never been a skittle fan. A few on campus here that I like.

But hey, if you like it why does my opinion count?

the ones on campus are in the 350+ whp range. used to have a 500 on campus:rofl:

1. how much did you pay for it?
2. why 03 and not 05?
3. idk about comfort. there are 2 types of dodge neon srt-4 seats. fat boy seats or the regular. the fat boy "wider ones" i'll give you are more comfortable but the regular ones i'd say the cobalt seats are better for longer trips. really comes down to your own opinion.

you asked what i think? this is a cobalt forum not a doge neon srt-4 forum. whatever you say about another car unless it's more expensive and in a different class most people are going to not agree with you or like the idea you got rid of a cobalt for a dodge neon srt-4. i personally think they are cool cars. back when i first bought my cobalt most my buddies owned them. almost all of them had problems with them and now traded them in or sold them with the exception of two guys. i knew and hung out with about 10+ neon srt-4 guys. good luck and if speed is what your looking for however i'll be the first one to say if you think your going to get 13.5 or something stock or even modded it's a lot harder to drive these cars (neon srt-4's and cobalt ss/sc's & ss/tc) than you think. most my buddies all kept adding more power. one guy had a 60trim turbo another had mopar stage 3+ toys and still none of those guys broke into the 12's. i know of one guy 3+ years ago when i got my cobalt had mopar stage 2 and a exhaust cut-out and put slicks on the car and driving the crap out of the car he ran a 12.8 however he blew out his clutch completely accomplishing that. there is still others though the rare and the guys on the forum you see who actually know how to drive the car and get good times but for the average joe it's a lot harder than you think.

good luck with the car and if you join the srt-4 forums let me know what your username and if u have any problems with the car i can get one of my friends to help you out over the phone or something.

the 2 remaining guys that i am close friends with the one who is stage2 says he is 300whp+ and the one who is stage 3 says his car is 400whp+ to people. everyone thinks it's crazy and stuff but the car has so many problems and never runs right. i ran my friend with the mopar stage 3 + toys + full bolt ons and i beat him. i can post up vid's of his dash vs. mine but honestly to keep a high horse powered car running right it has to be done right.

what i meant was the car is heavier and makes it nicer to drive at higher speeds u definitly dont notice ur doin 80 on the freeway til ur passing people lol

•The SRT-4 weighed a mere 2880 pounds, so its power to weight ratio is one reason for its speed [the base Neon was considerably lighter]

•The Cobalt SS/SC weighs 2936 pounds.

pretty sure the cobalt and neon are close to the same in weight. the more sites i look at they are pretty much the same thing.

the ones that are here were actually done fairly well. the 500whp one was clean outside and inside. they were calling him the fastest srt in tx. i belive he was one of the quickest on the srt site as well.. lilgualda was his name iirc.

def. not the quickest. there are about 3 guys i know and have met personally that are in the 10's or in the 9's with there srt-4. darrel cox racing. the red sled. new jersey guy. some guys in new jersey are the highest whp and fastest in the 1/4 compared to anywhere else in the world.

however i ain't going to argue with you because 500whp or anywhere around that under or above is a fast. traction becomes gay when you get that high. your spinning almost everywhere.

More comfortable than an SS/SC? SRT-4 Neons are renowned for being extremely fatiguing on long drives haha
