I'm dying for Chrysler to make an SRT4 and Bee themed Dart.
I'd like to see at least 150lbs taken out with either an uprated 1.4L or the 1.75L powering it. Supposedly Chrysler already has a turbo 2.4 Tigershark pushing 300hp to all 4 wheels for the eventual SRT4, but I'd prefer an Italian engine.
Edit: here's an updated version

I'm curious why do you prefer the Italian engine?

The 2.0 and 2.4 are thrashy and sound awful. The 1.4 on the other hand gives the car so much character and sounds great.

If they do end up eventually making the SRT4 Dart, I can almost guarantee you it won't be AWD. It completely defeats the purpose of the Dart and creating a cheap performance option for that model. SRT has also stated that at this point in time, they're delaying putting out their own version of the car because they're having trouble finding a powertrain that properly suits the car.
There probably won't be a Bee themed version either.

From my source, they have the whole 2.4T/AWD setup ready to go in the car but have yet to do anything with it. And I'm not expecting a bee, it's just wishful thinking.

Canonically, wouldn't it be a Dart Demon?

The Demon was technically just a body style, the same coupe body as the Duster but not a performance trim. The 340 and Sizzler were the performance variants.
A few guys have already done Demon stickers on Darts as well.

Mobile, sometimes they don't actually post. But refined and nice is not what I want in this class of car. I want "seething rage" as a daily exhaust note and all hell breaking loose when I pop the cut out on my very boosted 2.4L. I want it to annoy those in better cars. That is what I think the early SRT4's were about. It was good enough to thrash on a track but still fine to daily. Please Dodge do a proper SRT4 again.

Fine to daily is being kind. It was a Neon after all. That said, I'd take a Neon over a Caliber any day. I get what you're saying though but the 1.75L would easily sound better than the 2.4L. Dart + 4C = awesomeness.

I actually did go a little more bad back friendly by taking the fat cousin the PT Cruiser GT(400lbs heavier than the SRT4)and borrowing all the SRT go fast bits to make a quick sleeper. It surprises a lot of people which is what I wanted. I can hide in plain sight.

Ah, I was wonder why it's SRTPT. I do prwfer a bit more civility in my DD. Realistically I'd like the Dart to be RWD with the 1.75L but I'd settle for the more realistic AWD. I know the traditional SRT4 crowd would want something more along the lines of the original, but I wouldn't mind a mini Audi S4.
