Gotta love the Neon SXT"-4".....

On my way home from the supermarket I had maybe the funniest moment in my life. I was loading my car up with food for this week, when some kid in a Neon SXT"-4" (Yellow, the -4 from the SRT was placed after SXT, had dual exhaust, a front mount intake, but this is the great part SRT-4 replica kit!) parked next to me. He tells me that the MSP was a crappy plead from mazda as they die out. He proceeds to state that the SRT-4 will be the "dominant force" in the sport compact car market. He also states that the WRX sti, EVO, SpecV, Copper S, and RX8 all have no chance of over throwing the Neon from the "top of the mountain". I start cracking up and continue loading my car. He stops talking and says you car will never match up to the SRT-4. I laugh as he walks in to the store. I realize that i had forgot somethings and head in, pick them up and get set to leave again. When I notice that kid was sitting in his car starring at mine. I think nothing of it start my car and leave. About 2 mins later I notice this kid was following me. So i thought why not show him what he was messing with. I turn on to a very twisty back road, wait for him to get behind me. Once he was I punched it, and went atleast 75-85mph though this back road with him nowhere in my rear view. I turn off on a road that lead back to my home and have had a smile on my face ever since. That was the first time i ever went all out though some turns, this car is great! I love my MSP!
 
actually, it was a dealer installed option. i at college right now so i don't have the paperwork with me.....pm chojin...he installed them on my car
 
i really like the hid kit too. looks a lot like the lexus hid lights. very sharp light beam cutoff too so i don't blind anyone and i don't attract too much attention. though they had to disable my hi beams which kinda sucks. i do a lot of back road country driving to and from college. thinking maybe one day i'll change out the foglights for some auxiliary driving lights....maybe..
 
I have seen some people in other cars with the same type of thing you just mentioned. Don't do it, it looks real crappy. If you want high beams you could get your lights rewired. Or change to a true dual beam HID setup later on if one comes out.

Wow i just jacked my own thread. Oh well
 
why dont you get them from liteswap...they give us a discount and donate money for a good cause....
 
mmmm HIDs...hope they're dot legal :) I want to see pics.

RX8 won't touch the SRT-4 in the 1/4 I'm afraid :/ But obviously it'll outhandle it.
 
Oh and DOT legal HID's don't count on it for cheap. Out of every HID kit I have seen (about 15-20) only 2 have been DOT legal, but for those you had to practically sell your self to the company.($999us+)
 
that kid totally missed the point of the msp. it's not a god damn drag racing car, its a handeling car! that's where the true fun lies in driving
 
this weekend i'm headed home to get my msp! i was supposed to bring it back with me to college last weekend but my dashboard started making a squeaking sound (i think from the lojack they installed) :wtf: so i had to leave the car home again (sad2) but as soon as i get it back here with me, i'll have my friend take some pics with his digital camera and post them
 
ya know, Catz makes a pretty sweet dual beam HID kit. very functional and great deal for the money. and yes, go to www.liteswap.com to find them.

i've got the kit on my MSP and it looks great.

PS-gotta love those front mount intakes. dumbshit
 
F the SXT-4

I drove the gingerbread neon, and the only thing that saves it is the power. :wtf: Even a Saturn is built better.

P.S. I love the $.25 plastic shift knob it comes with..:D

You really did not like the plastic shifter? What about non-power rear windows? Oh take it on a road course it will be great I am sure. (Great as in great for everyone on the sides to laugh at!)
