My uncle had some kinda AMC car back when I was little. My mom borrowed it while I was with her and it broke down. :hehe: My cousins had a Gremlin back in the day :hehe: :nut: Back where I used to live, there was a guy who had a blue and white Gremlin that still ran :google: Someone else around my old block used to have an old VW van with like peace signs and flowers on it (vomit), lol.

NO!!!!! They really are getting rid of the Neon :mecry: :mecry: I wanted my next car to be a new Neon when the time would come, but they'll end it before I'm ready to get another car. I knew this would happen :mrcry:

Dodge Neon and SRT-4

The SRT-4 is quite a hit, but Dodge lost the opportunity to maximize Neon halo sales by not using the Neon name - or advertising the SRT-4 much. Still, Neons seem to be selling through association.

The current Neon ends in 2006. However, here's the good news:

The replacement will be built in Belvedere. It will use the hot new engine jointly designed by Mitsubishi, Chrysler, and Hyundai, and built in Michigan (and Korea and Japan). There may be a very hot optional engine, designed and built by Chrysler, not needing a turbocharger - with six cylinders, perhaps.

It is being designed by a team of Chrysler and Mitsubishi engineers. While both are working together on a common platform, the final cars will be very different in character. In North America and Europe, the Chrysler version will be used, even when sold under the Mitsubishi name. In Asia, the Middle East, and South America, the Mitsubishi version will be used, even when sold under the Dodge name. The Dodge and Mitsuibshi versions will have unique interiors and exteriors, and different suspension tuning.

The Lancer EVO will come to the US as a Dodge, with extensive Chrysler involvement in engineering in the two door version. The four door will be primarily worked on by Mitsubishi engineers, though members of the Neon ACR team are helping them, thanks to their strong rally and SCCA success. (The Neon traces its pedigree back to the Shelby Dodges, partly through John Fernandez).

An SUV version will be built, and may be sold as the Compass. PT styling will be transferred to this platform in 2006.

It will almost certainly not be called a Neon.

AN SUV VERSION???? DODGE WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!!!?!?!?!?! Keep the Neon alive!! If the Neon is not being made when I buy a new car, I'm not buying a Dodge out of protest :hehe:

Then they are bringing back the Avenger and WRECKING IT, while bringing a new ugly @$$ car out called the Kahuna. When this happens, if there is no Neon, I'm boycotting Dodge :mad:

When I first saw the commercial for this car, I remember thinking along the lines of, "This is one of THE worst car designs I've EVER seen in my life."

This is why I prefer Japanese/European car designs over boxy American ones. :rolleyes:

Did you see the first episodes of Initial D Fourth Stage?
Real hashiriya now drive with their wheels IN THE GUTTER so you are all wrong :mrgreen:

hum, I didn't think an anime alone would have an impact on the price of an antique jalopy such as the AE86... :crazy: - Good thing Fast and Furious didn't really turn a generation into Nos-sniffing fans. :evil:

Some serious monkey-see, monkey-do phenomenon at work but as long as those who buy those rear-wheelers show off more than they goof off I don't see the problem - Safety first! :sweat: :mrgreen:

Oh man. I think the Gremlin and the Pacer single-handedly put AMC out of business.... :hehe:

I don't have beef with American cars in general. I own one and love it. Plus a lot of foreign car companies have ties with American ones anyway, lol. But Dodge is making me mad. These prototypes are uglier than the frickin' Pontiac Aztec. IMO, the Pontiac Aztec has been the UGLIEST car to exist in years. I ain't a fan of the PT Cruiser either, but it's not quite to the point of horrible.

Ugh. The PT Cruiser. My neighbor has one. I refer to it as a bread truck.

Speaking of ugly, ever see those Scion cars from Toyota? They're milk crates with wheels... :hehe:
