Just a few quick pics, could definitely use a wash.
The more I drive it, the more I like it.

Back? Sheeeit I been driving a '95 SOHC MTX sedan every day for the last four years. I have not been without a 1st gen since early 2001.
BTW, that leather steering wheel is MINT under that cover.

Slipstreams are long sold off, but the Konis/Eibachs and rear swaybar (MP 22mm) will prob go on Monday. Depos I'm not worried about, the OEM ones on the car are only two years old and still look pretty decent. Maddog shifter and boogers may go in tonite. Eventually the stripes will be removed and wheels painted some sort of bronze or something, maybe in the spring.
Gotta figure out what I'm gonna do for a radio. I'm thinking a new Pioneer, and I have a plan devised to where it will look like a stock am/fm when the car is parked. I might even put a small sub in it, I haven't had any bass in years.
I'm gonna order some lock actuators, it has a Viper alarm but no power locks.

I have a bunch of car audio gear, not sure what of it I will end up using, if any. I'm gonna make a post in the audio section maybe, see if anyone on here has more current car audio knowledge than myself.
It's already apart. Got the stock shifter out, Maddog and boogers are going in tomorrow.

call me crazy, but I swear by Pioneer. pioneer head unit paired with pioneer speakers == good sounding no matter what. It sounds great and is well under the price of other speaker brands.
I ran across a bit of a diamond in the rough. VR3 Elite 5.25" speakers. Woven carbon fiber. WalMart special for 24 dollars. They work almost as well as your average 75-100 dollar pair of speakers. Try em out, worse comes to worst, your only out 24 dollars, so its not like your losing a HUGE amount of money if you dont like em.

Yeah I like Pioneer head units best too, they seem to last longer than anything else.
Door speakers are Kenwood, not sure about the 6x9s or dash tweeters. Head unit is a POS Blaupunkt.
Sounds like a good deal on those speakers, but I have a feeling these Kenwoods will stay. I have MB Quart seperates too, but when I had them in my ACR they ran off the (Pioneer) head unit and it just didn't seem like it had enough guts to push them at all. $50 for the whole set with original box if anyone wants them.

This thing is so damn comfy compared to all the other Neons I've owned. The RT/Sport seats (my ACR had highline seats when i bought it) are so much nicer on your back on long trips, and the car has brand new strut/spring assemblies with not enough dampening that smooths it out a lot. I kinda almost don't want to put my Konis on it.
I put almost 1000 miles on the car in the first 5 days I had it.
