To all those with quick imports and domestics out there I bid you beware of the 98 Blue Dodge Neon coupe(non R/T) equipped with the SiR badges that has been tooling around Brandon lately. I as well as most of you fear for the worst that it could be a possible JDM or CRVTEC swap. Hah! Be sure to laugh at the owner/driver if seen in traffic and to slap a big RICE COP ticket on its windshield if parked. Other possible mods I suspect are as follows: exhaust with tail opening large enough for a basketball 17 chrome wheels large dodge sticker on rear window Mopar racing seatbelt covers Rockwood custom stereo system beefier plug wires and a few assorted guages installed on the driver side pillar that are completely worthless. BEWARE!!!

Haha. Well I saw a newer V6 (totally stock) Mustang with the Nissan GT-R badge on the back. And later I saw a Ford Ranger (totally stock as well!) with a SVT badge on the back. And it wasnt even lined up straight.

I have also deen this fast looking neon. But there is something even faster in the Brandon area. A red Kia Sephia with DOHC VTEC on the rear lower panels. I am sure this car is not all looks.
