Did not think any Neon was worth this much

Cool car, with only 126 miles and an SRT-4 limited edition, the price will a lot higher than your average Neon, that's for sure wink

Still seems like a ton of money for just a Neon. Dirt track here in Michigan had a class that was mostly being run with junk Neons, which is where it seemed most fitting for them to go to die. $30K and climbing just seems like crazy money. Now...if the guy had a super low mileage Yugo with original air still in the tires....then he might have something.

Those SRT-4s were $20k + new in '05 plus tax, license, etc. Given inflation, they would be losing money at $30k today.

IMO, not a bad buy for the miles on a car thats highly sought after

I would still rather have a GLH or GLHS Neon

But for someone to say they are just neons is like saying a red eye charger is like an sxt charger. Uhm, no way man. Its clear you've been brainwashed and never driven one of these before. Yeah, I know, were all tough guys who won't admit a 4 cylinder from the factory was faster than our 426 from the factory. Let's just enjoy mopars again men.

My son has had several SRT-4s over the years. Most stock, a couple modded. They are QUICK! Stock, they would run with a lightly warmed 360 that I had in a Scamp. But the boy always wanted to run from a 'roll'. The '05s had a Quaife limited slip stock, but the transaxle would only take so many hard launches before giving up. Surprisingly, before '05 the diff was open. Didn't make much sense, but then, none of my automatic '71 GTXs ever had Sure Grips either. I always thought that was weird.

The boy's favorite SRT-4 was an orange ACR. In fact, he owned it twice. Cool little car. But it was still a front wheel drive 4 banger at the end of the day.

I have told my son many times over the years; you are half the man I hoped you would be, you are into 4 bangers rather than V8s. devil
