i know the dodge has 200 ponies, but remeber the nissan is a peformance engine, its made for speed, the dodge is a piece of ****, even look at the price between the two, maxima 5spd can do 6.8 if the driver knows what he is doing. just go somewhere and practice your 0-60, listen to the engine.

i love it
I love my maxi...it can fake so many people out on how fast it really is and make people really look twice on how fast it is i can rip someone apart off the line and see them up the highway and they dont even look my way ...they are so embarassed "they got beat by a 4 door" four door sports car baby.. the stratus is really a piece of **** but he thinks he can smoke me maybe-maybe not

Um...tell that PIECE OF **** mopar lover to get over the fact that his car doesn't have the engine that doesn't, and I quote, "Revs like no other engine this side of a V8 Ferrari". I mean come on with 200 HP and a 5 spd they can't even get the piece of **** in the low 7 second range???? But Nissan can take a modest 190HP and turn that into 6.6. Thats a Nissan for you, and the former is a DODGE for ya! Just my 2cents.

Maybe it's 2002. I remember hearing that somewhere.

Stratus
The R/T stands for Road/Track. and yes, the stratus R/T has the Eclipse GT engine, 3.0L V6 making 200 hp. published times for both cars are high 15s... i dont think you will have a problem beating him... unless he is alot better driver than you are.
