Who cares if it is a Neon? Don't they tear up the SCCA circuit? Ha. I get on the evolutionm web site every now and then and I don't recall those guys crying that they bought a Lancer..... well, until the crappy clutch fails!!! hahahhahahaha 73k drive-it-like-I-stole-it miles and stock clutch on my Neon.
And, yes, I got real tired of telling people what SRT stands for... ugh.

for fucks sake people, if it looks like a neon, and smells like a neon..... GUESS WHAT!!! IT'S A FUCKING NEON.
when people ask me what i drive. im simply say "a neon, wanna run" or "i drive a turbo'd Neon."
it's really not that bad, i joke about that shit all the time. i think it's funny as hell that my neon will smoke just about any honda/acura in town, and hang with just about any mustang i roll up to at a red light.
it's not so bad, once you get past the name that Dodge slapped on it, and pay more attention to how it runs.
i mean hell, i think it's fuggin funny that our cars share so much in common with a Turbo PT FUCKING CRUISER.
when I went to the dealership, I didn't say "hey I want a neon" I went specifically for the srt-4. but time passes and man do I get tired of trying to explain to a non-gearhead what the hell srt-4 means...so now its just a neon, easier to say and by god easier to accept over time
Dodge SRT-8 is called a Dodge Charger SRT-8. Just because DODGE didn't put Neon SRT-4... DOESN'T make the car a none neon. Its a neon fellas, im sorry you bought one since 'YOU DIDN'T BUY A FUCKING NEON' lolol

yeah it's a neon, but as for the charger srt-8 they have to say charger if you bought the charger version of the srt-8 instead of the magnum version. and then there's the jeep srt-8 and the 300 srt-8, but when the 1st srt-4 came out dodge didn't have 2 different srt-4's or a jeep or chrysler version so i can see where you could get away with just calling it a srt-4

You have to admit, it's pretty funny watching a bunch of guys get worked up over their NEONS
I think its funny. BTW since the CALIBER SRT-4 is out, you can no longer say ITS an SRT4 not a neon. Well if its a SRT-4, which one is it? The Neon or the Caliber SRT-4

i would just respond with "not the shitty one lolz"
What amuses me so much is that I have yet to ever hear anyone call my car a Lancer. Even if I call it a Lancer to someone in person, they immediately say "Evo". Like someone already pointed out, they are all trims. My car is an Evo, but that's a trim of Lancer. Also, most people I talk to expect my car to be fast. People always assume that I'm willing to beat on my car so I can out launch them as well. No thanks.
I think the main problem is that the Neon SRT-4 still has the complete Neon image. It basically looks like exactly like a base Neon. And regardless of power, it still has the Neon stigma. So no matter what I think SRT-4 owners will continue to get flack regardless of how fast there car is.
If I get beat by a Civic.....I still drive an Evo. Doesn't bother me at all. Same thing with SRT-4's. If I get beat by one then I still got beat by a Neon.
