I too have respect for neons. I have driven against some ACR and R/T models and they are really really impressive handlers right from the factory.

A neon is still a neon...but a civic with mods and all the look-fast stuff is still just a civic too.

exactly....a neon isn't worth working on...but a civic is a high performance sports car...as long as u add i/h/e right?

im not talkin about this particular neon...im talkint o the people who said "its still a neon" or "why would u do that to a neon"...thats just being close-minded

the sad thing is the point of that post was for people to observe the 150 shot on a barely built motor, which would blow it sky high...not the fact that its a neon. damn only me and mbow got that the rest of you guys posted about its looks...how pathetic.

one of the mopar mags ran 150 shot on the neon bone stock. It can be done. How long is the question. Also the neon block is iron vs the civic aluminum

Yeah, and after you put into it, it's still a fcking civic. I think this is true idiot comment foreshadowed by the topic of this thread. Why are you bashing an economy car when you drive one as well? There are PLENTY of riced out Civics on the road, and plenty on this site...

I dont really see a problem with it besides the floormats being ugly.
I had a neon running 11.70's and was street legal then an accident occured, but i never had a problem with what others have or had, its a scene that we enjoy, let who what they want and what they will enjoy.

God knows i said i would never own a honda because everybody has one, but look @ me now [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]


Anyways, no hard feelings, its just what they wanna do..[hr]
Dude! I was the same exact way.. i said i would never buy a honda, and yes look at me now.. i drove a nissan frontier crew cab before because i wanted to be a little different. but all and all i am happy with my civic.. but neons
