But it is almost the best car since sliced bread. First, it was under $20k, now it's just about $20k. Still pretty cheap. It comes with an awesome LSD system and with just some simple mods you can get 300whp. Amazing if you ask me. And the neon shell doesn't bother me - I actually think it looks pretty aggressive. Besides? What's a WRX? It's just a legacy shell?? What about an EVO??? It's just a lancer shell. All originally slow, family, commuter cars, not ment for sport, but rather just cheap, family orianted with decent gas milage. I think that's the point of keeping it a neon. And yes, I do agree with you to the point where they could have done things better, but then you loose the great aspect of a $20k car that can hand $30k cars their asses. The SRT4 is a tuners dream - cheap, fast, reliable.

This is just my opinion on the car. And when I look at the car, I do not see a neon, I see an SRT4. And I know if neon's never existed, you'd think the SRT4 was hot. If you remember, the WRX also had a shell to break. As I've said before, my friend was one of the first people in the Reno area to own a WRX - and when he'd tell people what he drove, people said "Eh... you drive a subaru? That sux." Now they say, "Sweet! A WRX is my dream car!"
