You know how many times Ive heard that now? lol

A buddy at work said that to me today, and I came up with this.. lol

"comparing an srt-4 to a neon, is like comparing my Girlfriend to your mom, yeah, they share some of the same parts, but the experience is soo much better!!"

Hey, I thought it was funny..

Calling it a Neon never has bothered me. I've found that 99% of people don't even know what a SRT-4 is.

SNOOPALOOP · 10-11-2007, 01:53 AM

Bothered me at first, but then I realized it is a neon with a turbo...

I agree, most of the time when someone asks me what I drive, I tell em "a hop'd up neon" I just got tired of explaining the SRT thing.. but this guy.. geeze he's relentless lol

Those people that call your SRT-4's "only Neons" are the same folk that would pull the "well, your 1,300 rwhp Supra is STILL a Toyota" or the "What's so special about GT-R's, they're only Nissans" cards, to try to justify thier overpayment on a higher end brand.

Ignorance is bliss.

There is a guy who I work with who always give me shit for it. But then he will talk about how badass the SHO was. Wait wasn't that a toreass?

The question is: was that a positive comment about his mom or your girlfriend? I'm gonna guess the mom.

I dont mind people calling it a neon...
It just makes it worse when you beat them

Hahaha. Yeah, he never says anything about my N/A talon. The worst part is he drive a hyundai accent (old one).
