Maybe moving to the dark side ...
Yup, that's right. I think I might be ditching my Civic for some new loving after the first of the year. And even worse, I think I might be coming back to the domestic market. 
I know, I know, but it's a deal I can't pass up. I think I might end up buying the new Neon SRT-4 that is coming out. Turbo'd goodness, right from the factory, for less than $20 grand. One helluva deal. I actually like the Neon. Had a 95 and I beat the living hell out of it, and it still ran. It was an amzing little car. Even stock, it's quicker than any stock Civic I've ever driven. So, I think I may be moving on come the first of the year. Only time will tell.

Rep Power: 292 how come the first of the year?
Here in Ottawa, they're available already! You can buy them now...they're coming in next week. A friend of mine at work is going down today to buy one. She's arleady been talking to a salesd00d.
Good luck in your domestic conquest!

Rep Power: 0 Yeah I have mad respect for that Neon. A former member of our Penn State Racing Team was the project manager on the SRT project, kinda fun talking to him now since he has clout in the performance community. But yeah, why the first? They are arriving at the local dealer here on Nov.1st.

Rep Power: 296 I don't blame you for wanted to buy a Neon SRT. My self I'm thinking that as soon as I can save-up the money I'm selling my Civic and getting the new Cavalier that will be coming out with around 200HP. This if Honda hasn't done anything to raise the HP of the Civics.

Rep Power: 372 I had a95 Neon that I bought new and all I gotta say is that I will never buy another chrysler, especially a first year car. That was the biggest mistake I ever had...I dont care if its a turbo or not, its just another thing to break...especially on a chrysler.

Rep Power: 0 Hey, good deal Taz! Maybe you'll roll up to one of our meets next year in an SRT-4 and show us some tail lights. 
I wonder if you can chip those things, or if they're already running pretty much at the max boost the engine can take. Hmmmm...
(Didn't you just get new rims? That sux that you're gonna have to ditch 'em. Or does the SRT-4 use 4 lugs? Hmmmm... [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG] )
