I would rock one as a daily driver... do some basic mods to get it lower in the 13's.

Aside from that

New car with Warrentee > 17 yr old Honda with miles that usualy needs work 10xs outa the year.

Good pick up.

At least it wasnt a Saturd (runs and ducks grenades.)

You should have kept the Honda to use while the Neon is in the shop. Looks cool, but it is a Neon. Best wishes.

[crxmobber]

I'm not a big fan of neon's but that front pic that you posted looks sick. It kinda resembles the looks of a wrx from that picture. Well, you know what they say
"Mopar or No car" lol. I have liked dodge ever since i had my 72 dodge d200. It was an old ranger truck my grandpa picked up from an auction when i was like 3 years old. I still have it now, but it needs some work. Anyways good luck with your car and i hope you still have love for the rex's.

[Condor]

I think you did good, nice car.
You can always come back to the 1G
after you finish school and stuff.

[shadowboy]

i voted don't care. it's your car.. who cares who loves or hates it?

[ImprtRcr02]

I obviously "dont care" who likes or doesnt like it, otherwise i wouldnt have bought it since most ppl dont like it. But i did want to see what you guys thought about it.
I will always love the rexs, maybe when i make enough money to be able to afford a nice project then i'll get another, who knows?
The pics i took of it the first day suck balls, maybe the weather? But i took some nice ones yesterday. Heres one i like.

Excellent choice SRT's are definitely quick and can be made much faster if you know how to spend your money There is a local shop here in PA that has an SRT with a biiiig turbo and it dynos at 416 to the wheels...and it doesn't spool until about 4500 RPM Check it out at SlowBoy Racing

[oldschoolsi]

Actually if I'm right (which I think I am?) the SRT-4 is exactly that. It isnt a neon....although it shares the same body. Dodge renamed the neon the SRT-4 to try to take away from all the bad mouthing of the Dodge Neon, so instead they made the turbo version and renamed it. It was their attempt at trying to make a "new name" for the neon. First thing people think when they hear "Dodge Neon" is pile of crap, so Dodge wanted to step away from that.........hence the SRT-4........when you hear that........all you can think is "Bad ASS turbocharged Dodge"

Correct me if I am wrong please, but I am pretty sure that's about right. I like the car.....if I could afford insurance I would own one........sure its a American car.....but for the price and HP it puts down.....who cares!? OH and the blue is sweet!! My grandfather just bought a new Nissan 350z about the same color and it looks AMAZING!

[ImprtRcr02]

Yeah basically, it shares almost nothing in common witht the neons of old. The motor and drivetrain are out of the pt cruiser turbo model and represent nothing of the old neons motors. The motor is completely new and very well built, i think the tranny has been in use overseas in trucks or something? for a few years, but man its a nice feeling. I love that car...
Its like they say: once you go boost, you never go back!!

And it helps when ppl think that its just a neon, bc they never expect it coming!

The PT Cruiser was built on the Neon platform

[sir si]

it's nice and you have to love the sound of that blowoff valve! though it'd be really funny if you pulled up to 1gen crx/3gen civic at a stop light and he smoked your ass like a pack of winstons.
