no...u hold it until its like cracked, then just touch it once more to open it fully, like slide back...

 

Be nice to the little guy!!! Mine says SRT-4 too. But its stuffed in my glove compartment at the body shop still.

Yes, hold the button until its fully "opened" in "crack-mode" or whatever you wanna call it. Then push the button hard once more for "Express open" And it will open itself as much as it can automatically so you dont have to sit there and stare at it.

 

the only reason i'd not want to say i drive a neon is cause i hear they made the top of the girlie car list, but since most if not all the girls here could kick my *** then fix my car, i'm not worried. if someone says "you drivew a girly car" then just show 'em her ***. other top girl cars were VW's and miata's.

 

Heres the "gay" cars as stated by Gay.com for 2004, and their requirements. This is not a scientificly based study by any means.

Don't worry, there's a Gay Cliché category this year, but such giggles are no longer the crux of the feature. Rather, these cars actually had to have some standing in the community, which means they had to have:

Good looks (of course)
A "hot" factor (trendiness)
High-quality interiors
Fun-to-drive characteristics

So nowhere on gay.com's site is it a "gay" or "girlie" car.....but cartalk.com's e-mail's say otherwise. See here:

Then again none of you have a purple neon anyhow.

 

About the only advantage to getting older is that it becomes easier to admit a mistake...so here goes. My previous posts about the window stickers labeling the car as a Neon SRT-4 apparently only applies to the window stickers shown on dealer websites. I visited two dealers today and the actual window stickers on the cars I saw called it a Dodge SRT-4. Sorry for the confusion my previous posts might have caused.[sm=guilty.gif]

Believe it or not this is only the second mistake I have made in my life. The first was years ago when I thought I was wrong about something; but it turned out that I was really right.[sm=smiley36.gif]

BTW, I did test drive one today. I will post my thoughts about that in another thread when I have some more time.

 

they didn't put subaru on the list? in oregon they are called lesbaru. funny, cause i know no girls that drive them.

 

Well that was the "gay guys" site...the lesbian one im not sure, its not up on cartalk.com yet. But guaranteed the Bu's will be there.

 

I had a purple Grand Am... *gulp*... [sm=badidea.gif]

trust me!!! I'm not girlie though!!! [sm=noooo.gif]

 

Last I checked a Neon is the 2nd fastest all motor car in the world, So, give em that when they tell you "it's just a Neon.".
About a year ago I saw a purple one that had a woman driver that said "Fastest all motor car in the world." But the validity of that I am unsure as I don't even have a link anymore.
I think an integra or something like that held the record then.

 

It is probably because the way Subaru heavily advertised their cars to the gay community by having several famous gay women in all of their advertisements a few years back.


BTW: My SRT-4's window sticker simply says '04 Dodge SRT-4, much like everyone elses.
