I'm going to wait, I think....
I'm with Chrisoefer on this one....it might turn out that Hahn Racecraft or somebody else comes out with a kit for the Caliber 2.0, based on the 16g/20g neon turbo kits....Depending on what we see for reliability and power handling in the CVT, the AWD Caliber might turn out to be a better deal. Instead of the estimated $25K SRT price tag, we might be able to have an initial cost of about $17K, put $5K into it, and have an AWD Caliber with the same kind of power as the SRT. Saving a couple grand is still a saving, but you'd have a complete hooligan machine - which would be especially fun during our long canadian winters!
I'm gonna go thrash a local stealership's Calibers next weekend, and see how everything feels!
