So guys, think about it, remember back a few years back when you saw that commercial for the neons.. a simple message was sent out. "Hi"

What was so bad that made Mopar discontinue this car? Why were neons so bad?

I personally think that at the time the SUV scene was comin out and phased this beautiful car out of production.

now the gas prices are high and no one wants to pay the prices..

Who wants this caliber bull****? Who wants to give up their compacts for SUVs

They are slower, and even when it comes to SRT... even if you give 350hp motors to the calibers, they are still garbage compared to SRT neons...

Why not give our neons back... anyone agree?

 

i think if they did come back out with the neon it would suck big time.
i wish they would look like this


but i doubt it.they would look just like the caliber or w/e.big and bulky.
dodge has the ram and all these new cars to worry about so i doubt anyones looking at the neon.

 

If they were to bring it back they should make a option for a 2 door again like the first gens.

 

There's an article about it on Allpar.

 

can you link the article? i couldnt find it. Yes if they ever did they should bring back the 2 door and 4 door option. But they probably would look like the caliber... to be honest if they brought it back, they would probably put the same front end on as the caliber and change the headlights and everything. Thats what really makes a neon.. The way the front end looks like a face lol. Gahhh i hate you dodge!

I guess they are already planning on redoing the Caliber too?

 

i'm gonna say this before i read that article cuz i wanna say it before it leaves my head haha, but didn't the neon have terrible safety ratings its whole life (and thats pretty much what the 90% of america that doesn't care about speed and street performance, care about, safety that is...).


granted, if they redid the neon they'd probably take another look at the safety ratings, but it would prolly hurt want WE want in a neon lawls

 

IIRC, the first gen ratings weren't bad, but weren't great, and the 2nd gen was improved upon that.

 

dude if they did make the neons front end look like that big plastic s*** i wouldn't buy one.
i like this

 

I think they should just come out with another car just like the Sunfire went to a Cobalt.
