Best Reason to Buy the Dodge Caliber: Price or payments
Affordable base price for useful car with fresh exterior design.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Dodge Caliber: Quietness
I tell folks my car growls. Lots of engine sound. My little son thought it sounds powerful and fast. Lots of road noise too. Makes it hard to enjoy stereo (not that the stereo that came with the car is great). Driver window whistles on highway.

Best Reason to Buy the Dodge Caliber: Past personal experience
This car made me never want to buy another dodge. I picked the RT because it was the best option for the Caliber. Overall, it's poor, cheap design has been a major disappointment. It creaks like an old house at every turn and there's cheap plastic everywhere. They may as well have just put it together with duct tape.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Dodge Caliber: Handling
This is the worst handling vehicle ever. Acts like its going to fall apart at any given turn. Makes creaking sounds like its an old house.

Other Reasons Not to Buy the Dodge Caliber: Ride smoothness
