    Here's a little something that most people don't know: The neon was created when Chrysler approached their design team and asked them to make a car that would be competitive in road racing, in SCCA. This car was designed around road and track capabilities.

    With that knowledge, now maybe the all plastic interior that just snaps in place and the lack of luxury parts will make sense. It was all to keep this car as light as possible. The first generation neon outranked every other car in its class as far as performance. This car started off with contingency programs in racing. This car was winning trophies in damn near every race out back then.

    I speak from experience on the last part as I won championships in 1999-2000 in my 1996 neon.

    It's cool to throw your opinion around about how it looks, but to knock something that you may not know, doesn't look good on your part. I'm not trying to bash on you, just educate you fellas.

    And the word that one member was looking for is "retarded". Not retarted. Later, QD.

    Here is a "sport coupe" for example.
    I meant to change that to DOHC. It was not available on SOHC models.

    Yep. Same with tachs. You could buy the gauge cluster with tach and just push it in place and it would start working. Already wired for it. Later, QD.
