I just sold my '97 neon which was in great shape, but it was getting old. Last night I picked up a 2004 SRT-4 that our buddy Scott Lasky bought new, and used as his daily driver / winter car over the past few years. The car is in great shape, has never seen a modification of any kind, and is much more fun to drive compared to the '97 I had. This morning I was able to wash it nice, and then clay bar some problem areas like where the Sirius antenna was mounted, and a few spots of what seemed to be sap. I am very happy with this purchase :tup: ![http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4040/4282198903_c2ab528c9e.jpg](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4040/4282198903_c2ab528c9e.jpg) ![http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4036/4282198763_1fd0e088a2.jpg](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4036/4282198763_1fd0e088a2.jpg) ![http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4041/4282199589_9cbf711405.jpg](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4041/4282199589_9cbf711405.jpg) The best part about the car is that it has the remainder of a 7 year / 70,000 mile warranty from Dodge that is being transferred over to my name. The car currently has 43,xxx miles, so I will not have to worry about anything bad for a while 🙂 –mark ---

Thanks, I work my ass off, but in turn, I get to play a little bit 🙂 I actually bought a house and I am waiting to close.

Yup, for a few more weeks I will be here. This apartment has been great to me over the past few years, since I work / go to school at RIT. ---

It’s the same base, other than this has the Quaife LSD already installed. The yellow one had tons of mods though, including the Mopar Stage 3 turbo kit and pcm, Crane 14 cams, meth injection, and a bunch more. ---

It’s an 04 model year car so it was probably built and sold in 2003. It’s now 2010. Isn’t the warranty over in the next few months…probably why it’s being sold now… 😉 It will probably be fine for a while. I just pointed that out since you said the warranty is the best part about the car… ---

It was sold because I can’t tow a full car trailer or a boat with it. ---
