| the V8s are all jealous cause we can actually pass a gas station or two.. and the MS3s are just jealous of our motor mounts that dont break. oh and the light up cupholders!!! I prefer the term "grocery getter", cause Mini Vans can seat more than 5. |

| Lots Of CsrT4 haters ... When I first bought my CSRT 4 my buddy with a basic AGP turbo upgraded Neon SRT4 ( fully tuned ) made fun of it and said that there was no possible way that the car was fast . We raced at least 4 times , The Bone stock Caliber taking him by 2- 3 cars . After that he shut his mouth , and I told him to go get more parts lol . My other buddy also has An STI with cobb stage 1 , intake and cat back . From a 25 mph roll , he got me by a car or so . From a 10 mph roll in 1st , I ate him for breakfast . He was shocked . After that ppl started giving the car more respect ... |

| With the MS6 and the STi the thing is they have this car off the line for sure. AWD will kill a FWD anyday. I had the experience of driving all 3 cars (CSRT-4, MS6 and STi) and well you get a better bang for your buck with the CSRT-4. When the stage kits come out for this bad boy people will be thinking "Holy crap you can actually get over 400hp out of a 4 banger?" When I tell people that I am buying a CSRT-4 they just laugh and say "Nice minivan, when you driving the kids to soccer?" But what can you do right? Just ignorance and its not really important what THEY think other then to what YOU think. If you like your ride... be it... focus, neon, cobalt, anything of the sort... if you enjoy driving it then thats all that matters. Who cares if people dont give this car respect... just shows more close mindedness and ignorance of the people today ![]() |

| ive been getting a lot of hate from neon owners lately... MAN THAT IS ANNOYING. least my car looks like it's got some balls. Damn those cute cars... I still have one left too ![]() I put it like this usually.. my caliber and neon are opposites. The neon is cute... the caliber is anything but cute. The caliber is perfect... and the neon is anything but perfect. lol back on topic tho... I dont get how Neon owners hate so much on the car that replaced theirs. Maybe thats just it. They got replaced. |

| CSRT4 Haters Funny, I have seen this video on youtube as well. It almost looks as if he lets out (watch the tach) and the MS3 goes by. For me, they are missing the point. Both of these cars are faster then 90% of the things on the road. However, if you want to take anyone with you or need to stop by and pick up a few things for the house, you kinda look silly doing this in a MS3... Just my 2 cents... Z |

| That is exactly why I bought mine. The CSRT4 is a great high performance family car. I got tired of my lowered mustang beating my kidneys to death. (Eibach performance springs with KYB shocks and struts.)

| the only haters so far have been on the srtforums. Whenever i see a nsrt i always end up having a lil conversation on the road. So far so good with them. Other people dont know what it is and trip out when they find out its turbocharged. Regardless i got used to people talkin shit cuz when i had my nsrt and when noone knew what it was i used to get looked down on looked at like a ricer. People thought i just bought my tricked out neon till they hear my catless exhaust and bov!! Then when i went stage 2 and started messing with ls1's and keeping up with 03 cobras thats when i got the nsrt respect.
