the actual magazine has a nice write-up on it.
base model and r/t versions can now be seen at tysinger dodge (ask for Joe Connors Sr.)
srt-4 version to come in a few months.

Looks like a short Magnum 
"300 horsepower, 260-pound feet of torque...six-speed Getrag manual gearbox and limited slip differential...raceworthy bucket seats, a functional hood scoop, huge brakes, oversize calipers, 19-inch cast aluminum wheels, and low-profile W-rated Goodyear tires. The new SRT-4 is due in Dodge showrooms in mid-2007. Look for a base price of about $26,000."
Not bad at all...Kinda getting away from the "fastest car at a good price" thing with the $26k price tag...But it seems like you do get more car for the money

I played around on the website to get a number for a fully loaded Caliber, and was sort of disappointed. Base price is like $13-14k, but when you start adding the average options it gets up to $25k in a heartbeat.
According to the commercials, it does have some pretty neat options though! Seems almost like a tailgaters dream come true!
...and truthfully, I don't think it's any more ugly than the Neon.

Ugly as sin
How do you go from a nice light compact sedan to that mini SUV looking POS? Guess DCX didn't want SRT-4 owners complaining about the Viper seats. Every fat ass should be able to fit into the Caliber.
