In the November Car and Driver magazine, they compared an 2008 Dodge Caliber SRT 4 with a Misubishi Lancer Evo GSR. Which was superior? The Evo. See below:

0-60 mph SRT4= 5.9 sec. Evo= 5.0 sec.
1/4 mile SRT4= 14.4 @103 mph Evo= 13.8 @102 sec.
Top Speed SRT4= 155 mph Evo= 155 mph
Braking (70 mph to 0) SRT4= 175 feet Evo= 159 feet
RoadholdingSRT4= 0.84 Evo= 0.97

I wouldn't buy one but these are two pretty fast pocket rockets.
