2008 Dodge Caliber SRT-4 Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Tour

In this video I give a full in depth tour of a 2008 Dodge Caliber SRT-4. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

A 6 speed? Wow, Chrysler, I'm impressed. Was not expecting that. +1

Its a Getrag too...Pretty stout transmission.

What you missed is the glove box is also a mine fridge and cools drinks. also there is a pop out flash light in the headliner of the back seats

[@MrSlipknot4evr]

Not all SRT's man! Lol I drive a PT Cruiser GT. Same motor, suspension/platform, and exhuast as the Neon. I only have one exhaust though. The Neon is the only boosted 4 cylinder product with an SRT badge that has dual exhausts. And I wanted one badly too. It was either a Neon, Caliber, SRT-6, or the PT Cruiser GT. Only found the PT. Each and every one of the SRT-4 vehicles are incredibly hard to find. And harder to find in good shape.

+I'd Still Smash I dont think they wanna compete with them Subaru & Mitsubishi. They want to have lot of different lines of production. Its a good car to own after all.

[@Hammar89]

I can't figure out why GM doesn't put turbos on their v8 suvs, keep building bigger engines to get more power is just unprofessional. If the escalade was lighter and had '' smaller '' engine with turbo it would be perfect

[@vNasttyy]

Lol the dart isnt even a very good car

[@Osprey1994]

The Dart could have been a good car but Dodge wasn't willing to embrace it. They could have had a spiritual successor to the Neon SRT4 but no God forbid they put money into that market segment.

And with better fuel, smaller engine, and twin scroll boost

[@carwhiz90]

I'm not a Dodge person, but I love the look of this car and the way it sounds

[@MrSlipknot4evr]

They most certainly do have the same motor. The only difference between the two is the engine bay setup, and the Caliber having a more powerful tune to make up for its weight. The transmissions are slightly different, yes. And they are built on completely different platforms. But the motor is in fact the same as the Neon's and PT Cruiser GT. So although you may be right on 2/3 of the subject, maybe you shouldn't open your mouth unless you know what you're talking about for sure.

[@tunzsrt1844]

Other than the displacement # , these two motors have NOTHING in common between them . One is a cast iron closed-deck motor , the other is an aluminum open-deck motor . The bellhousing geometry is totally different , you can't bolt one motor to the other trranny , not even without considering the clutch/flexplate/input shaft . The. Heads don't share any machining at all . Different bolt patterns , different oil/water passage routing . I own a caliber srt4 so I know what I am talking about.

I really like these Dodge Calibers for some reason. Mostly the way the look and that "aggressive hatchback" body style. I just really really really wish the interior was even just a little bit better. When you buy a $15,000 product, it should not feel like it came from the Dollar Tree.

[@Vaca1950]

Looks like a suv that got shrunk and they put a turbo on it. Still it does look meaner than the neon.

@@Osprey1994 At least the dash and doors are very easy to clean. And that's exactly what I'm looking for in a car like this. A Focus ST is nice, but since it's a newer car I'd argue that they SRT4 may be more reliable.

For those who owns a sxt if u want SRT power just recalibrate it and after a week u will have insane srt power which is faster than the manual as it's cvt.

Omg that fucking steering wheel is hideous

[@StormAutoAdventures]

Not trying to be a dick or anything... I think the exterior design is amazing looking. would only add projector xeons lights and a (fake)- dual exhaust. Again, not trying to bash here but, is there any soft touch materials other than the seats in this car? It looks like even the center armrest is hard plastic? Is this true? If it it, that is just ridiculous. How much could it cost for a padded armrest? It doesn't even have to be leather. Unless I am wrong and it just looks like plastic?

This is one of the most underrated cars that Chrysler has put out in probably a decade and to think that the SRT-4 edition doesn't even exist anymore with the interior upgrades to the new ones. Just shows the signs of a badly run company putting out crap like the Dodge Avenger and Rental Sebring.
