Hey, what s up guys, As most of you know, my baby is gone..and you are all right, i miss it, but i knew I would, but on the plus side for me, i picked up my new project, 2005 SRT-4 with sunroof and kicker sound system..pretty FAST car...just a few mods so FAR, here are some pics:
....just picked her up on thursday, the 26th and already starting to mod her.....just a few cosmetic mods ( super white turn signals, no they don't light up blue..lol.not that RICE..painted the fog light surrounds silver and gave her a good wash) Mopar Blow off Valve
PLans for car include STS, Lowering ( these things are Big foots! ) Stage 2 w /toys, MM, Large FMIC, 17 or 18 Konig NExt wheels in Bronze, C/F Hood, INjen SRI ...the list goes on and on! haha..
You can see the black fog light surrounds....this was on the 26th of may 2005 when i picked her up at the Dealer
I'm actually pretty proud of this paint job...lol...
And I am in the market for a MX-3....hopefully buy it this comming winter..well see, but i do the MX-3

My soon to be brother in law just got one in that goofy orange color. Yes they are sweet and very fast but I can't get past one thing...Its still a Neon. Nice ride though, I must say!

my neighbour took me for a ride in his recently, and at first i found it hard to get over the whole neon concept.....until he hit the gas. tons of pull. best of luck to you on your new project

Then why didn't you know just pay like Corksport to find ya a GTR engine and put that in your MX-3 and do a 5-speed conversion? Or better yet have Chris Goodwin at GT-Garage do it. He would of built ya a 350hp GTR that would be like a Daily Driver

Im happy for you in your purchase but I still hate those cars with every fiber of my being. Just the sight of them stirrs up immense feelings of hatred.. Every time I see one coming tward me on the road I feel like causing a head on colission with it. Theres just something about it that absloutely erodes the human soul. If i see a regular 2000 neon done up I have more respect for that then I do these srt 4's. Still.. Im happy that youre happy with it.. but if I won one in a contest.. I would set it on fire.

Or sell it..

To be more positive I have driven a couple of those and yes they r fast, the seats are the most comfortable that i have ever sat in and for the price u cant go wrong.

Well thanx guys for all the positive and negative feedback, but i still like the car.....I just needed a cariwth 4 doors and a base to start modding from..i think the SRT-4 was a good decision.
