2007 Dodge Caliber, Neon Replacement

Wow this is only the front view but it looks pretty good. Obviously it done up, but at least the ugly newbie to the Dodge family has already been played with. I think the RallyE edition is hot.

I saw that a while ago. I am not a fan at all. The nice thing is that it will have an AWD version of the SRT-4 which will solve traction issues.

This has the tranny that has an infinite amount of gears due to the belt driven system similar to Saturns, the second generate CVT.

noooo... your telling me that thing has a VTI tranny.... we'll in that case that car will not see numbers over 300hp... you'll be lucky to see numbers over 250 actually... that tranny sucks... it whines and slips and in our cars it's only dealing with 140hp... add some serious power to it and your screwed.. plus GM no longer uses the tranny after 04... the tranny sucked so bad and we end up replacming most of the tranny's... every VUE we sold that was AWD and had the VTI tranny has been replaced by us... due to all of them have broken... the bulliten out for the VTI tranny's goes like this "if car does no have a D or R replace tranny"

VTI tranny's suck... you better hope they don't plan on really using them

or else :hanged:


the best part is.. you would think that with that type of tranny you can just keep your foot planted and you will never feel it shift due to an unlimited amount of gears.. yea thats BS too... you have to let off the gass so the thing will lower the RPM's... if you keep your foot o it it will redline it's self and not shift down until you let off or atleast until you reach a certian speed...

the SRT-4's tho can not be getting this tranny tho due to it not being able to shift... the base mondels will have it but the SRT-4 will get a regular gear tranny

i honestly wouldn't mind it if it had a different grill...too many lights up front but to me it has a very rally inspired styling which i kinda like
