The box will determine how the sounds will sound.. if they sound "sloppy" it will most likely be because of the box or abuse.. since it's in the trunk of a neon i'd just go for the 2 12's.. i don't think you'll have enough room to go with 2 15's in a decent size box..

good luck and let us know how it turns out

Bass is made by moving a speaker cone slowly, thus physics dictate that all bass is "sloppy". If you take a system that has excellent "bass kick" that is "tight" and well defined and disconnect all speakers but the subs you will be left with a boomy sounding sub system.

The "tightness" or "quickness" of a sub system is pretty much determined by the midbass response and blending of a system, not the subwoofers.
