Reliability I think is the big difference. You get what you pay for... whether it's a condom or a car. Remember the first 2 years the Neons came out? Flakey paint, sh!tty motor, horrible trannies etc.. etc... you were lucky if you were to see a Neon hit 100K. It's a domestic still. The day you prove that the SRT-4 is as reliable as mine... I'd look into it. Meanwhile... I'm stickin' with my Civic.
