My girlfriend has to drive into Philly everyday for grad school and with her jeep getting an generous 12 mpg we decided that we needed to do something. So for her birthday I got her a 2004 Dodge Neon SRT-4. Now we got it very cheap number 1 because its a neon, and number two its wrecked. Now I understand that these cars are quick for what they are but even though I bought it I have made the most fun of it because I cant get past the Neon nameplate. It'll be a good little car for her to learn how to drive manual on and a good weekend beater for me while I'm slowly getting my GN done. I bought it sight unseen from an insurance auction and when it was finally delivered I couldn't believe what I bought. It slid into a curb and destroyed the passenger suspension front and back and the wheel is in three different pieces, simple fixes. But I was like a kid in a candy shop when the hood opened. 50 trim turbo, 1000 cc injectors, 3" down pipe, turbonetics waste gate, solid motor mounts, giant front mount intercooler, AEM wideband and autometer boost and oil temp gauge...list goes on and on. Unfortunately the front mount is going back to stock so I can reinstall the crash beam that neon owners think is a good idea to remove. Feel free to let me know how much you hate these cars because again, and I cant stress this enough, ITS A NEON!!!
