Now that being said, I never would have even thought about challenging a bike with any of my cars. I have helped build a few 1st gen Neon's that were bike killers though. I've helped build several 400+ hp Neon's that would suprise a bike every now and then. How about a 575hp street legal 1st gen Neon. I saw that one take out a Busa from a roll

Here was my last R/T I built. She ran a 14.2, still got over 30mpg, and handled like a Vette on the autocross course...

The 420a can be made quick and I still like the 4g63 a lot, but neons are some of the ugliest cars ever made.

I actually thought the SRT4 was good-looking. But then you get inside and..........the only nice thing was the sport seats

I can't see how someone can justify spending money modifiying a neon let alone drive it. You spend 5 thousand in parts wow! Its still a neon.

Its not really the car that inspires the people to try and take u in the 1/4 mile at the light, its usually the plastic rims and trash can exaust the Kid (whether by age or by maturity) had "installed" that causes them to perpetuate their downward spiral into endless disapointment. These kids usually go out years later and buy a bike. Then they spend countless hours in the parking lot of a local taco bell waiting for the next generation of neons to roll up so they can attempt a wheelie and crash into a phone pole... ahh the cycle of douche.

I'm sure Corvette owners say the same thing about Camaro/Mustang owners, and I'm sure Ferrari/Lamborghini owners say the same thing about Corvette owners.
