The Dodge Neon SRT-4 was cheap speed -- and it was an icon of its era. Today I'm reviewing an SRT-4 ACR to show you what made the SRT-4 special, and I'm going to show you all the quirks and features of the Neon SRT-4. Then I'm going to drive the Dodge Neon SRT-4 and show you what it's like on the road.

Imagine your friend with a neon gives you a ride and you just crack the back windows before you leave so they gotta get out and roll them up lmao
Accounting for inflation, this costs just as much as a base WRX does today.
im pretty sure doug now has mesothelioma
Trunk liner, etc..adds weight
Nah. I think it was more about keeping it under $20k.
Ahh stop leaning on this old gems of cars and giving them paint defects 🤦🏼
19:57 We almost got an F bomb from the man himself. We'll get 'em next time.
Didn’t he already drop it in the TRX review?
Doug: *calls an 8" subwoofer huge* Me With An 18" Sundown: "Pathetic."
But was your 18" factory?
This is my favorite Chrysler Product of all time. Finding one of these in good shape is not an easy task (wish me luck finding one)
Dodge never has, and never will, make a dependable vehicle. Not sure why idiots continue to buy their junk. 😂
This guys a dumb ass. It's a cheap fast car.
the crank rear windows make me very horny
Yet you hate on the pt crusier GT . 🙄🙄😂😂
The difference between this and pt cruiser is, ye
Can someone please tell me where can I get this car
There’s about 10 on the used car market at dealerships and a couple that are under 1000 miles. I’ve got my eye on one for 2021. Such a fun little car!
Only one thing will be associated with this car: HEAD GASKET.
The late 90s/early 2000s has to be one of the worst runs of American cars...ever lol
Just saw this exact car driving around today.
I had one of these.....Only issue is it was just poor craftsmanship by Chrysler..
The little hook it actually a tissue paper package holder, believe that or not, there is also one underneath the center console lid.
I owned 2 at 2 separate times. Never let me down or left me at the side of the road.

My very first car was a standard 2000 neon , while it was crappy It was brand new , as the mattet of fact the ONLY brand new car in my HS parking lot , I learn a lot on how to take care of cars on it .. learn how to install radio , learn how to do oil change and spare tire , change speaker .. l love that car
replica of the subaru
It always amazed me how crappy 2000s Chrysler cars were...and still are
Who else came here after the 'Dodge Fucking Neon' by Sliphantom video?
The cheap interior and cost cutting is thanks to mercedes management not Chrysler!!!
DOUG NEON
my mom used to have a regular dodge neon!
Videos like this are so dope! Great "Car" channel!

First time ever, Doug is dressed appropriately for the car.

20:52 the srt4s beat evos and stis roll racing stock for stock.
Coming from a srt4 owner (on my 5th one) your face when you got into the power is exactly why people love them. Its not luxurious, its not rwd or awd, it's plain, its hated, and all that is why we love it. Cheap speed, and its a really great car to learn on. It can have pretty good power and it dont weigh a whole lot 29ish00 pounds.

Name me another front wheel drive car in early 2000s that got you 0-60 in 5.3 seconds stock? Who actually had the car stock for more than couple months? Yeah, it was ballz fast. I miss that car so much.
Lol. 🤷♂️
I can’t remember the last time I saw one of these. These were everywhere at one point.

I thought I was the man with my lt1 6 speed. Trans am back in the day, then I kept getting destroyed by srt4s so I bought one and loved it.

There actually is a rear cup holder. You have to open the center console lid. It folds to the back seat and allows one cup. Lol
This dude crap on the pt cruiser gt which is the better of the srt4 motor. Douche 😐

Wouldn't the spoiler just ruin 0-60 times? Especially on a fwd?
It had 3 cup holder that’s easily something great
Doug is the type of guy that looks like a dodge neon
You mean Dodge not Chrysler 10:55 Doug.
Same company
*quirks and features intensifies*
Forgot the cup holder in the center compartment for back seats and also the coin holder and tissue paper holder to

The 90s and 00s really had the ugliest cars
Your HP numbers are wrong. SRT4’s we’re putting down 220-244whp stock. Dodge underrated the power figures for insurance purposes. They knew young people would get slaughtered by insurance companies with expensive policies.
Mine has a molded trunk lid liner.
Had mine for 10 years. Burnt some exhaust valves so i rebuilt the top end a year later the bottom end went out so i sold it. Got 2 reckless driving tickets in that thing. Ones on my GRworld channel if you want to see me be a fuckin idiot
Didnt this car fail safety tests. One reason why many were cheap.
Now I want one! I remember when these came out I had just graduated from high school.
anybody know where to find the wheels for sale?
Last of a clean one my ass I have a super rare super clean 68k miles like new SRT4 how can I add photos
1:39 I guess there's a police watching this video suspiciously!
I need some cheap speed too...
I heard those cars catching on fire by overheating
I wanted one of those so bad, but i am a bigger guy and I didnt fit in the seats at all. which made me sad.
How much was the base cost in 2005?
drinking game when he says "srt-4"
Cheap, fast cars never go out of style. Keep your electronic nannies and shove that 12" touch-screen up your butt! 🤘
lmao where i live there are like 6 stock srt4's
Love my skittle. 05 w/ 100k miles. 110% stock besides BC coilovers. Not even a stereo or tint. I’m leaving my gem the way it rolled out the factory. RIP Andrew (hybridkid), first SRT4 owner to be fatally claimed by its speed.
ThatCarGuy2 no sir. He was in his own SRT4. He was literally the first guy to die in an SRT4 from speeding.
In your SRT4?
You’re wrong! It’s just the srt-4!
No he's not
Alot of these where heavily modified and then crash and destroy
Yeah a 40 year old neighbor had one of these 10 years ago. Modded the hell out of it and it was fun. Sold it to the high school kid down the street and wrapped it around a tree a few months later. It served its purpose. I would kind of like to add this to a collection of rag tag cars if I had the room.
Real srt4 enthusiasts know its a neon
had it been AWD it would've been sold to this day due to the even bigger success.
I love these types of videos Doug!
All those upgrades but no damn brake upgrade smh
Would an srt4 fit into a 1999 Nissan Altima GLE? Who fuckin knows but I’m gonna try
I bet Doug secretly likes the crank windows in the rear.
This guys annoying
No he is very cool
Lol, don't let an 2003 SRT4 owner hear you call it a 'Neon'
Do more brand new cheap compact garbage thats what you belong sitting in and look most natural
Seems like Doug is getting less and less willing to give cars low ratings when they deserve it. If a 15 year old Neon doesn't deserve a low Quality score then I don't know what does. This is one of the worst eras for one of the least reliable major car brands of all time. Yeah it is better quality than an 80s Lotus, but 5 is supposed to be average. That being said, if it had come from a brand without the horrible reputation I would have loved to have had one of these. I'm personally willing to ditch a few frivolous features if I can get more power and better handling for not much money. On the other hand, that's why I always buy used cars.
2020 and I still want one of these. :)
I dont mind cost-cutting and cheap materials in cars like these. Its what makes them affordable, but they are still fun when you drive them. Nowadays we hardly have any cars like these left.
I used this car to race in NFS Underground in the very beginning in Career Mode and absolutely loved it, especially after installing the 2nd engine upgrade package, sounded better than the 3rd package. Awesome vehicle! :-)
What? No mention of the Stage upgrades.....Or anything else.
