So Dodge get;s a lot of shit here on /o/ and it shows, especially after the Demon reveal. I can understand why (cheap interiors, reliability out the window, and most of their cars can't turn) but if this were the case, why is it that Dodge is still alive? Surely it can't be just the FCA pushing money into it. Now that RAM isn't even apart of Dodge anymore, taking it's own brand. Now that the Dart and Viper are done, Dodge's platforms right now are the Challenger, Charger, Journey, Durango, and the Grand Caravan.

Who else was disappointed that there was no SRT4 variant of the Dart? I am. I owned a Neon SRT4 and that thing was fucking awesome. Can Dodge no longer even make a budget economy car that doesn't suck ass (looking at the Avenger/Dart) and turn it into a pretty good performance 4cyl?

Does anyone here even own a Dodge? I hardly see them outside of Challengers, but I never see anything else.

For some reason I've been hit with hatchback autism lately and I want one. I've always hated them but suddenly I can't look away. Looking for a Civic SI now.

Opinions on best hatchback?

>2007 Nissan 350Z Enthusiast Coupe
>$14,340
>39,045 mi.
>6-Speed Manual

CARFAX reports no accident/damage and 2 previous owners. First owner had it for 5 years 10 months, driving 11,743 miles. Second owner had it for 3 years 11 months, bringing it up to the current 39,045 miles.

The low mileage is tempting, but my biggest concern is that the Z was repossessed from the second owner back in February. I'm thinking if this person was that financially irresponsible, he or she might have not treated the car so well...

Should I be worried that the last owner was a broke-ass bum? Worth going and checking it out?

Do you back into parking spaces? Is there anything wrong with backing into parking spaces? I ask because I overheard someone make a joke in passing that everyone who backs into parking spaces goes to Hell, and I don't get it.
