how much?

 

im not 100% sure......i thought he had said somewhere in the 7-8k area...

 

ANY stock civic < srt4. yea its a "neon" doesnt meen you wont see its tail lights.

 

SRT-4's are very responsive to mods. There are a lot of independent shops putting out mods for them and now the bigger companies are starting to come out with stuff. The mods are very well priced. I love mine. The only two problems that I have come across so fare are:
1) Wheel hop is a pita
2) It's not all that fun to drive when it's cold until it's had about 15 miles of warm up time. Then it's good to go.

 

greg what is wrong with your car now

 

its slow.

 

than buy something other than a neon because though they may be domestic they're still rice

 

That’s right for God's sake buy a cuda or something because unless it has 8 cylinders and a gas gage that goes down as the speedo goes up it's nothing but rice...

 

SRT-4 > Si

.

 

Cars are about a lot more than top speed and 0-60, trust me.. you start to value the little things after you've had your far for a while.
My 7 year old M3 cost as much as an SRT4, keeps up with a flat power band NA engine w/ actual torque, out handles it, has this stuff called leather, a real interior.. etc.
Just saying, haven't spent a single $ on upkeep for this baby and she's got 85k now.. I'd go for an all around performer.
