i bought this car from these dudes i work with they think of 4 cylinders aspieces of shit well this dude bought the neon for 200 and it was messedup he fixed it and sold it to me everybody at work knew it was a piece of shit (it kept stalling)(iac valve) anyways i got it fixed and this thing is lowered and nice tires and on 17's and its got a body kit and a momo steering wheel holy shit its like on rails man i think it might be lighter than a cb7 because liike normally where the body would roll and make u slide on a cb7 this one just slowly start to slide not like roll or bounce all over the place i came off an exit that was 25 mph and i was going over 100 and i cut this car off to get to the exit and i hit the exit at that speed and i slammed the brakes and like guided it dow n the ramp it even hopped lol bottomed out and it like grabbed the road and just kept stopping and turning it was nuts it like wouldnt let go of the road! ill post a pic tomorrow i want to look at the wiegh and shit...

The neon is a very light car
...although it doesn't have the best suspension system, light weight is its own reward.
Try driving a civic after driving a CB7...it feels like a toy.
...just be careful when u r "hopping" or "bottoming out"...thats not supposed to happen.

yeah well like i said its lowered and the suspension is really hard but it not like blow bottoming out it handles the bumps just firmly and it doesnt sway at all it feels like a racing porsche not like a boxter convertable. and the hopping was cuz i was going down a hill on an exit and i hopped on the turn it was nuts i was going at a wide angle and turning and the side of the car hopped and it hit the ground sideways and i turn the wheel and it just grabbed didnt slide out of control and i gained straightforwardness and slowed down it was like some stunt shit.]

Kinda off topic, but I was cornering on a windy road with my new wheels (trying to readjust to the cars new habits having gone from 205 to 195) and when cornering hard I hit sort of a dip in the road, when the car bounced back up the car tried to get squirrely on me, I wasn't going too fast though
Back to the neon
on the stairs, she grabs my arm, says whats up,
where you been, is something wrong?
i try to just smile, and say everything’s fine.

95-99 neon

well, straight line I'd say the neon, or maybe drivers race, but how about the curves? I thought the neon had a dependent rear suspension? Apparently not, by my searching on google. Then again I'd heard neons, or rather srt-4's ran like dogs in the corners...

wierd, see the bottom end on this car has no power it does pull at top end but not like the cb it has a decnt amount of power about 3 -5500 but then it dies off a bit and nothing below 3 really i think the cb's top end like 4 - 6450 is like what makes it feel faster than the neon
lemme look up the 1/4
and i know they ran the srt-4 compared to evo and sti but those are AWD cars and srt-4 is ff]
