[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 381934, member: 550915"] Yep. So is a PT Cruiser. Whoopty-do. At least its not a Civic. It's funny that everyone who says "it's just a Neon" has probably never even driven one (an SRT-4 or even a Neon for that matter). I dated a girl who had a Neon (older gen 1) and that car was a blast to drive, especially for a little cheap econobox. That the critics have to say that the SRT is "no STi" is hilarious. It was made to compete with Civics and RSX's but they are not competitive with it so you have to go to a whole new class and price range to find competition. I first saw one at Sturgis in the SRT booth sitting between the SRT-10 and the SRT-10 Ram. For the money it's a great little car. I didn't buy it because of what other people think. I bought it for me. I like driving it. The only problem I have with it is the giant wing that comes on it. I am looking for a deck lip type spoiler from another silver Neon to replace it with so it looks like a basic Neon to the uninitiated. I don't like the attention that the wing draws. I would prefer the punk kids stay the he ll away from my car while it is in the parking lot. Anyway, different strokes for different folks. I really like the looks of the '05 Mustang. Too bad it's a Ford. [/QUOTE]
