> [@Mikes98RT](#): > > props to the neon guys. When i first got my Dakota R/T and everything was completely stock, i went against a red 2 door R/T neon (possibly from thw West Senneca area, any1 kno him? anyone?) and i got beat like 4 or 5 cars. after i started doin stuff to my truck i ran into him again on the street and pulled him by like 1 car (with 2 of my ‘heavier’ friends in the truck). so i guess my point is mad props to the neon guys…the R/T ones can really haul if u put the time and money into them how much spray does it take to make up a 5 car gap??? I’m just curious ---

lol I have to agree with dawn though. Neons ARE pieces of shit. But, they still have some decent potential. If you are just looking for a car without thinking the word “modifying” then yeah, they are total garbage. I would like an ACR though and autocross the poop out of it. ---

> [@Carbonfiberhooded](#): > > Whats that mean? All DSMs are unreliable? > > And if Neons were assmebled in the DSM plant they would be DSMs and they are far from (turbo models anyway!! 🙂 ) actually do the research…neons were built in mexico and in the us…the us plant they came from IS the same place DSM’s come from…due to the fact that chrysler and mitsu were basicallly partners…hence why the non turbo dsm;s come with the 420a/d4re…actually im pretty sure chrysler owns mitsu now ---

Neons are made in Belvidere Illinois. DSMs are made in Bloomington, Illinois. DCX also sold it’s last share in Mits even tho they still share some platforms. ---

I’ve been here since June. I just don’t post a lot. I’ve been on a posting spree. I guarentee that I’ll stop posting this week. But dude, I know that everyone doesn’t want something fast. I don’t have a fast car. Hello. I was just talking about how blazers are sweet. And they’re obviously not fast, or whatever. Blah blah. I’m fucking rambling. But jesus christ. I just don’t like neons. They’re lame and ugly. I’d mod a Topaz before I’d mod a neon. Yeah. In your face. I’m a jerk. lol relax dawn, just busting your stones a little 😃 no offense intended 🙂 ---
