I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

If you really think Rap music 'rules', I invite you to my anti rap music thread to have a debate. As for neons, I think they're great performance platforms (So are eclipses), but one, they're everywhere, and two, the interior sucks. The whole car just radiates 'cheapness'. They sure handle and accelerate great though.

i am one of the biggest rap fans ever, who is not a wigger.
ive been such for 5 years.
i am one of the biggest neon haters ever, who likes dodge.
ive been such for 3 years.

i dont have a lifelong bias.

experiences in life just let me evolve to this current state of enlightenment.

plus i like techno and trance and HH better than rap, i just dont listen to it much.

an equally tuned XT6 will smash any neon.

im not really into lace.

Sorry, but I really hate hearing this "rappers are supposed to role models" ****. Why are they supposed to be role models? All they get paid to do is rap. They don't have any other obligations to you or little Johnny who buys his albums. Besides, where are the parents in all this? They're supposed to be the real role models in a kid's life. And don't act like it's only rappers who are fukk-ups either. There are a million rock stars, movie stars, and athletes out there who set just as bad an example as these "horrible" rap stars do. Just because someone gets thrown in front of a TV, doesn't mean they're ready to be a role model for America's youth. Just my two cents.

Randy, you are so right.

I go away for two weeks, the collective IQ on the forum plummets.

How's it going dude?

Not that anybody cares, or should, but I am not a fan of rap music either. [And whatever a preppy is, I'm not it] It's too crossover for me. I admire it as an art form that evolved from ghetto culture, and because I believe change is imperative.

It's just the old fashioned part of me that insists that music ought to have a tune or a melody. I do like eminem's brand of vitriol, there is music in it, but I suspect from the sounds of the fans on here, he is probably not sick or ill enough to get a look in.

Round headlights



But to tell ya the truth, the Volare is a real nice car. If i can get my butt in gear and get the choke fixed, i would drive her, but for now im stuck with the Mirage with its nice sounding tranny





MOPAR or no car.

Ask Phil about the guy he knows with the white neon. (Phast SVX). I could show you vids of lots of them in the 13s, and quite a few in the 12s, and some in the 11s, and 10s, but I'm a biased source. Please PM Phil about it.

why do i see the poor svx compared to an srt4 all the freakin time!? there is nothing putting them into the same class, or even the same school. people say "my car is faster blah blah blah", thats cuz we own different cars.


As for me, i sorta like regular neons. although uncomfortable, i love the gas milage and for some reason i like the exterior and they can be exteriorly modded very nicely.

I love rap music and have for many many years....or atleast as long as i have listened to music. there is a line i draw. i dont like yelling rap. i like rap that gets me movin......ok, no comments from anyone on that one........

I'm not the one bringing up the SRT4.

I'm talking about REGULAR 1st gen neons. The coupes. They have an identical power/weight ratio as the SVX, and they handle great. They're dirt cheap. They're reliable.

Why'd I sell mine?

I like the SVX better.

hehe

my 2 cents

Ok, everyone else has thier opinions, heres mine.

1) I dont like opera

2) I agree the neon is faster off the start, but I wouldn't try driving from Maine to Florida at 100+ mph in one. The SVX is capable of high speeds for long dorations. I resently drove 300 mile at 1am. I determined I get my best gas mileage between 85 and 100mph. The cars engine just purrrs happly along.

3) I have never been a fan of the neon. I don't find it physically appearing.

4) I don't believe Dodges are undependable as a rule. I owned a 96 Status. I but 120,000 miles on it with no major maintenance. It still ran like new when I traded it.

5) No matter what vehicle you talk about you will find someone who does not like them and people that have had bad exspirences with them. Ive vn met people who think the SVX is ugly because of the windows, but most are just intreaged.

6) If you worry about what everyone else thinks you'll have a miserable life, because someone will always have a different opinion and argue with you.

7) If you disagree with me on any of the above, good for you. that means you have a mind of your own and you know how to use it to form your own opinions, but dont try to change mine, because they are mine.
