well, here it goes. i was an active member on another dodge caliber site. after i wrecked my 2003.5 mazdaspeed protege (not my fault) i bought my first caliber in november 2006. it was a 2007 orange sxt sport with the CVT. i had it for 1 day short of a year and traded it in november 2007 for my current 08 R/T with a 5 speed... which is what i really wanted for the improved performance. the CVT drove me insane. ive got 7500 miles on it since then. 20% windows tinted, in-channel lund vent visors, i tinted my tail lights at work, (i paint cars), and i got a magnaflow dual center exit exhaust. ive raced it in the 1/8th mile a few times and it ran 11.28 at 62.9 mph (going my memory). i plan on doing alot of modifications slowly. im going to post some random photos of my past rides, and my current ride later on. its gettin late.

heck, i fyou had the sxt and traded it in for the rt, take it one step further and trade in the rt for an srt. With all the loot you will toss in the RT chances are it wont get up to the srt.

i had enough neg. equity in the first trade in that ill be okay on doing another trade in. but im not planning on getting to CSRT level. just a nice car with a little bit of grunt.
