can't really tell from the pics, but if it runs fine and the body is clean, it's worth a g. I'd do what Tyler said. He'd probably go for it for $800.

The definition of a NEON
A great domestic compact car whose rapidly disappearing taillights are most typically seen through the windshields of Honda Civics, Chevy Cavaliers, and other assorted shitboxes.

Yeah, your car isn't as special as you may think.

Come to think of it, my car by way of upgrades kicks the shit out of a stock R/T, except that you have the quick ratio steering rack and the ricer stripes.

ignorance really is bliss isnt it?
1995 4 door mtx with 96 cam. Booger bushings
1999 turbo coupe putting 10 pounds of crap in a 5 pound bag
stuff for sale, MTX swap
Talk of ATXs is prohibited on neons.org, it is blasphemy and will invoke the wrath of the MTX elitests.

I can think of quite a few things that makes them better then a plane jane neon.
3.94 trans. w .81 5th gear
Dohc motor
quick ratio steering rack
stiffer springs
Seats
Leather steering wheel/shift knob
stock ecu has higher speed limiter
4 wheel disc brakes w ABS
Rear sway bar stock
Functional wing stock
Many more creature comforts

I could keep going, but my point is valid. Not trying to ruin mahifish's thread just stating the obvious that is looked over so much.
