I would def. upgrade the trans down the line.

 

well when i turned 16 i was looking into some cars. I looked into mustangs, tacoma's, and hondas (i know....). But i never thought i would get a neon. My parents were looking for a car for me but they were on a budget since mt dad had purchase a used 2002 benz. One day my mother calls me with the news that she bought me a car. A red 2000 atx neon with 76000 miles for 2K. I was like a neon..... i was kinda dissapointedat first. But in the end i love this car.I have done some minor mods like Aem CAI, indash dvd player, and new speakers. I plan on doing so much more when i get more money. and when i go to college im gonna get an SRT-4!!!

 

um i was 17 and i wantd a car. well me and my parents were lookin around for cars and we saw like 4 civics. well we went 2 dis one dealership and saw a 2002 black civic. dan across da street was another dealership wit a flame red 2000 dodge neon 5 spd. well i convinced my parents to co-sign for me( they heard bad thing about dodge and dey didnt like da idea) well they co-signed for me and i drove da car home. i love it ever since.

 

Well it all started over the summer, my friend and I jumped in my ****ty ford slowpaz and started heading off to Ozzfest... when all hell broke loose and the automatic transmission died (wouldn't shift out of first). So my mother actually, who owns an 04 neon sxt lent me her car for the weekend to go to the show... I loved the thing (it was automatic, but fun!) flying down i-90 at an average speed of 100mph... I fell in love with the thing.

When we got back from the show, turned out repairing the transmission would cost more than i bought the P.O.S for, so I started looking for a new car. Found a could SRT-4s, but insurance quotes drove me away (I'm 19 lol). Found this little sweet yellow 04 mtx with 53k miles on it.. paid about 9k. Been having fun smoking civics with fart cans ever since.

 

I bought mine after years of wanting one!!! I originally wanted to get a 1st gen. R/T yet, I seen this car and fell for it....I have had it for 3 years in April....
