For a daily ride, I really liked my SRT4. If you can get past the cheap interior and having too much power at the front of the car, then you'll love it. I had a love/hate relationship with my particular car but if I had the extra money, I wouldn't hesitate to get another. It's not hard to get 300whp out of them, I beat mine CONSTANTLY for years and had minimal issues out of it all things considered, and got consistent mid-20's in mpg, no matter how I drove it, which is not bad considering how much fun the car is. I had entirely too much money wrapped up in my mind but if I could find another SRT for cheap enough, I would jump on it. Never drove the car too much in snow but the one time we got about a foot here in TN, it was a blast. Probably the fastest car I've owned and def got the best MPG out of anything I've had.
I would NOT get a 2003 model- they do not have the LSD and it's hard enough to get traction with it so I can't imagine it without. If you drive one, pay attention to 3rd gear, nearly everyone I was around had issues with 3rd gear going out or being impossible to get into unless you know the car. Mine did not have that issue but it was starting to come up around the time I got rid of it. Probably also avoid a sunroof car as they always seem to end up leaking and stripping the drive motor out.
But yeah, I had my car for about 3 years so if you have any questions about them, let me know. I'm a little rusty but I did a lot of tinkering with my car and they are fast, fun dailys.
