I Dunno this and subbys make no sense.
Why would any car company make a Fast 4 door.
Unless the goal was to target the married man with kids, and make them think they were fast.
Either way, if you have kids, they will never be late for school or practice again.

That is why I have mine. I roll with two car seats in the back. As far as thinking that it is fast, 13.9 with crappy 60 foot is not too bad for 100% stock car.
For some reason Mustangs seem to be the only successful 2 door sports car.

I Wasnt bashing haha.
I’m never the only car when I go to the track for break down reasons.
(I bring a friend with a car load of tools/ tires ect.)
I Drive a coupe for the soul reason of being able to say “no you cant have a ride”
hahaha.
The kid’s reason is a good reason probably the only reason for so many doors.

Whats a reason for 2 doors? 4 door neons are lighter than the 2 door versions, and its easier to get people and stuff into the back seats. I can’t think of many bad reasons other than maybe looks, but… its a neon?

At the track maybe 🙂 Roll race would be retarded, lol.
BTW, I just wanted to see what the boost would be like turned up all the way, and… well, its better than turned down all the way, hah. I got scared though, and turned it back down. This weather is not good for testing high boost levels, even with 93 octane!
I’m so happy with this car so far.

These cars can be had for \< 13k now, I got a really good deal. I wasn’t even looking for a car, but I had to pick it up.
I’m not sure the power expectations. I’d love to dyno it here soon, and see what it puts out. Somewhere in the 3’s I hope.

Yeah, I think my car is a tad bit faster than the 12.6 I’ve ran. I dunno. I think if I could actually go anything more than 1/4-1/2 throttle for the first 50’ I’d do better. Until then, Im just a 12.6 car. lol
We’ll probably meet up this summer.
