Pesky non-SRT neons
I was coming back home tonight from spending the day with my girl (pwr2thaboost), and got stopped by a red light on the intersection of hwy 111 and 70. Then all of a sudden here comes this riced out newer model neon (SE, SXT, R/T i dunno which it was) 5-speed--> Exhaust and intake from what i could hear along with a PLEATHERA of ugly graphics. Anyways, so this kid revs at me(
)
First i though....hmmmmm....why not........(Then->)....okay, naaaaaaaa---->
It had just rained so the road was still pretty wet. The light turns green, and this kid peels out WOT. I accelerate normally as i would from any light (1/3 throttle, shifting at 3200rpms with usually around 1-2psi) So yeah, i accelerate normally and WALK right past him.
Figured i'd share that with everyone for sh*ts and giggles.
And no, this is not even worthy of a being called a kill

Haha, that sucks for the neon. Oh well, he shouldn't have spent a dime on that car, and he shouldn't have revved at you!
Good job... I think... for...um... accidently beating this guy?

You'd lose that bet, most civic's cant beat a neon. Anyway stock for stock its a drivers race. Its funny watching people with equally shitty cars bash another shitty car.
My SL65 rim, because a rim is all I can afford

Yeah fixing the body is simple... here's what you do:
1. cut body from neon.
2. cut body from civic
3. weld civic body on neon
Problem fixed!!!

fuel economy, acceleration (a neon can run what... mid 16's? the civic ex can run 15.8), cornering, auto-x, resale value, reliability, etc.
