7. Dodge Neon SRT-4

Nobody ever considered Neon SRT-4 to be a high-speed car but the little Neon can top 153 mph driven flat out. Introduced in 2003, Neon SRT4 was one of the best and the cheapest performance cars in America at the time.

The compact, inexpensive and boring Neon was turned into a pocket rocket with 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 230 HP which propelled Neon to 5.4 seconds 0 to 60 mph time and top speed high enough to get featured on our list.
