I'm definitely in the same position as you...but for a different reason. I'm still trying to get the loan. So we'll see if I'll be able to. It sucks to sit back and wait, especially since I visit the dealerships like twice a week or so just to look at them. I go to the Cerritos, Huntington Beach, and Orange Coast dealerships so they won't get tired of me....lol.

At least you can go and see them, I won't even be able to touch one until July!! This is when the area of Canada I live in will see the first one.

I am also obsessed! I go online as much as i can to see all the pics i can of this car, i have downloaded all the videos like most of you all and i watch each of them countless times a day. When i went to go look at one i searced every dodge dealership to see one and when i saw a yellow one, i got so happy, i have to get me one of these. Right now though i am trying to get my aunt to co-sign with me cause her credit is perfect and im like begging her to death. The only thing is though is that she lives in new mexico

. I talked to the dealers over there and they are getting them in on april 1st, i hope to god i get one of these. My 18th birthday is on the 25th also so im trying to get her to co-sign with me for a b-day present, i know 18 seems young for a car like this but ever since i got my license i have been into neons my 1st car was a 96 sohc automatic neon in which i did a tranny swap, and completly customized it, then it got stolen

. now i just want another neon i want it soo bad....

ME TOO!!
I have a collection of mags with any mention of the srt.
I search the web daily for info.
I bug the hell out of my wife for one.
I have downloaded all the videos I can find.
I tell everyone I know, "I want an SRT".
I had four dreams about it, 'going outside to wash it after it rains'.
I had nightmare were I wrecked it racing a riced civic on a bridge in florida.
I have gotten pissed off many times when I go to dealerships and left with empty answers.
I call local dealers at least twice a week for info on WHEN???
I think I have a problem.
I think I need help.
I think I need an SRT pill to take.
Help I cant stop myself.
I AM OCD!! about the SRT.

Yeah, a 12 step program would be good. Although, I don't have an SRT 4 problem. I swear I don't. Really, I hardly ever think about the SRT 4. Does anyone else have SRT 4 pajamas?? :lol:

I cleaned out my garage last night to make room for one.

If thinking about it daily makes me obsessed, I'm guilty.

After I get one I'm sure it will subside a little, right, won't it guys?

BTW, a 12 step program won't be necessary. A one step program will work just fine.

Step 1. Buy SRT-4

Here is my 12 step program:
1. Tell wife I'm going to buy an SRT.
2. Argue with wife so she will see why we need another car.
3. Get mad at wife, tell her "I'm buying the car anyway"
4. Go to dealer.
5. Haggle with dealer to sell at MSRP.
6. Wait on dealer to get me a deal at MSRP.
7. Borrow money from bank.
8. Sign the paperwork.
9. Wait in lobby till they "detail" car.
10. Finally, get in, start her up, drive home with BIG grin on face.
11. Show wife car, give her a ride in car, let her drive car.
12. Wife smiles at me, says " I love This car", get to keep and enjoy car.

I need to add:
13. Smoke a few Ricers when needed.

That will make me feel better, for now.
Until I get one, OR at least a ride in one,
Or even better, get to Drive One.

i find it very hard to fall asleep at night right now. i'm so close yet so far from getting one. all i need is a dealer that'll do EP and take my car. i have loan ready and everything. silver srt-4 mmmmm.

i'm going to south carolina over spring break (next week) which would put me very close to florida... if anyone knows any dealers with silver srt-4's willing to do EP please let me [email protected]

Same here, I got the loan, just waiting for the car. It actually works out better that I had to wait. Originally, I was approved for $10,000 at 6 percent and after extending it a few times, the offer expired because the car wasn't here. I just re-applied and they set me up for 4.5% at $25,000 and I was only asking for 10,000. I guess they got tired of extending my loan papers, so they just did the max. :lol: :lol: :lol:

repeat after me " I am an SRT-4aholic" "I know I have a Problem" "I can Quit any time" "I just don't want to"

I might as well throw in my two cents..
I've pretty much joined the Obsession Club (sounds like an expensive ologne). Ever since my cousin test drove one and ranted about how awesome it was, i've been absorbing every bit of info possible. At first i was looking at a Spec-v, but the more i read about turboing those, the more it seems that it will just blow up the engin. I've got just about all the money (CASH!! can you believe it?!) ready for the SRT-4...i just gata wait till i graduate in June....
. anyone have any good remedies for the SHaKes?....hard to type....antisipating new car....

As a reformed obsessive, I'v got to say that it was an enjoyable obsession. But alas, I've been cured since Valentines Day... :twisted:
