Ok, what the hell? Used WRX? Used 300ZX loaded to the brim with mods and stereo? Used AWD Eclipse/Talon loaded w stereo? All the choices available and you'd get a Neon?
That's just what I would do, anyways...

and that's STOCK. with only 200hp.

The SRT4 rocks [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
Mopar has 3 stages of performance enhancement planned already. Stage 3 is good for 300 HP
Stock rated power is 215 hp, but virtually every SRT4 dyno'd puts out MORE at the WHEELS than is rated at the flywheel. That's powa 
For approx. $28k Canadian (projected sticker price), it's one heck of a bargain. Plus those oh-so-cool Viperish seats in it. And it'a already won every "hot new compact" shoot-out I've read yet. Even the domestic-jaded Sport Compact Car rated it Car of the Year. The STi and Evolution may be faster but they are going to be minimum $40k up here.
Anyways, at least he bought a Cav and not one of the fugly new Sunfires. Who the heck approved that design??? [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

Like I said if I like dodge then I would get a neon but I don't, just like people have there preference over name brand stuff, you say this is better to someone else the other brand is better... to everyone Horse power isn't everything I've always been a chev fan always will be, my car isn't my life unlike everyone else so who cares what I buy or what I have bought everyone else can hate it all they want cause then I know there won't be alot out there....like every other vehicle...

I used to be a GM fan, even after owning a Z28. Then I got a Z34 and it all ended [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]
But anyway - as I recall, when you flip your key to 'run' (not 'start') the airbag light will flash 7 or 8 times and as long as it flashes the same number of times after you unplug the factory radio, you should theoretically be good to go.
Kool - you just seemed a little 'excited' [img]smile.gif[/img] I was just taking the view that the world is full of morons and it is our burden to have to deal with them

1989 Toyota Supre engine low miles 2500
