Default OT: it took 6 years for Detroit to copy the style...

Boy, oh boy... it took 6 years for Detroit to copy ITR style (with the wing). The specs don't sound bad... but we shall see.

This is the sweetest looking neon I've seen ... today

That would be embarassing to lose to that thing .. it certainly packs a punch on paper. Egads

It does look like a wrx in the front .. I can just see high schoolers bombing around in that thing. With a few mods it can probably push some serious power

Think of all the chicks you could pull in that thing .. eh, wait a minute

It might be ok, but some of the older 1st gen neons are total POS, I have seen about a dozen of them with the paint peeling off the body panels, especially the roof. The quality of that thing had better be improved.

I didnt know Honda trademarked a high wing?

Damn Plymouth, stealing the ITR design for their Roadrunner...
