its a neon and dodge sucks, you can probably buy one of these in 5 years for less then 6 grand.

Sort of like the old 300ZX single turbo cars?

At least the Neon isn't a clusterfuck to work on - and I have worked on both.

I love how everyone says "Its still a neon" is a Civic that much better?Sure the build quality is better etc but both are shitty fwd economy cars.

Most of the Neons I've seen were complete garbage that had a hard time living to 100k miles, but yes they are both shitty FWD econo boxes. :-\

I drive a Civic and have owned a couple they are great cars I just like how people assume a Civic is such a step up.I test drove a SRT4 and was impressed.It went pretty good,had the nicest factory seats i have ever sat in and the interior was decent looking.A few bolt ons and you have a pretty quick street car.I can only dream Honda would have the sack to build something that cool.

"It's just a Neon" or not, the verdict is in that the SRT4 is a stompass reliable FWD shitbox. 500 whp on stock block for extended durations (by the tuenarboi yardstick) means it'll hold up to long term fatigue at stock-ish power levels very well.

VW guys and a bunch of other people complain Honduhs ave shitty plastic interiors - well, so do Neons. The Honduh and the mini-Mopar guys should band together and crush all of them, if you bitches will just stop your bickering for three minutes.
