The New Dodge Dart

Nirvana said
I have owned a Neon(05 SRT-4) and my brother owns a new Dart. Comparing the two is ridiculous. The new Dart is 10,000 times the car my Neon was. Fit,finnish,build quality are leagues above the Neon.

The new Dart is a great car,and it deserves the Dart name. It is a comfortable,economical,and reliable economy car...just like the original Dart was.

It would have been stupid,from a financial standpoint, for Dodge to make the Dart a RWD, two door, V8 powered car. They needed a compact economy car to compete with Honda,Hyundai, and Toyota. If you want RWD and a V8 buy a challenger, or Charger, or 300c or a Ram Express etc...

you must be comparing the multiair dart to your SRT, and even that is a hard comparison, the 2.0 N/A dart couldn't get out of its own way if it had to, moves on the highway need to be planed ahead and 6th gear is only good for completely flat roads or above 70MPH all the time and 80+ before hills

for power the 2.0 sucks, has good fuel economy but there are other manufactures out there that have much better fuel economy with much more power for about the same price or less, such as Hyundai
