Lightbulb Your opinion

Selling my '99 Si...Don't know what to get next. Have had 2 Hondas so far ('95 Prelude VTEC, '99 Si), but want something different, something with the torque.
I'm only gonna have like 12.9K to spend. All of my friends drive imports, so it would not be a good idea for me to get a domestic (I would rock one ). Another Prelude? Turbo? I dunno...

Put the cash down on a Neon SRT-4....

Car and Driver: 0-60 in 5.6 seconds, top speed 153 mph

Sport Compact Car: 5.8 seconds, quarter mile 14.2 seconds

215 horsepower and 245 lb-ft of torque

(Stock)

I like imports, but the Neon makes nice numbers....

Yes, indeed. But it's still a Neon...Fast Skittle but domestic. Good project though...

I'd find a nice GSR and work on building it up.

well if you want torque for 12,900.... and no domestics....
ummmm.... I cant think of a damn thing...
Theres turbo torque... but not the kinda torque i think your talking about, useable torque as soon as you hit the gas....
Unless you want to call an SE-R as having torque theres nothing.

without a doubt I'd go turbo.... For that money you could get a nice running DSM with a bigger turbo.. Course the reliablity isnt the same as your hondas.... but it'd haul ballz.

When did he get a 20b in there? For some reason I bet he still has the 13b.


Me with 12,900. buy 92 dsm with 6 bolt 4 bolt rear end and maybe Iwill get lucky and it will have the big brakes
Car: 3000
9,900 left Plenty of money left to make a monster of a car!
