YOU DRIVE THE HELL OUTTA THAT CAR AND GIVE US THE RESULTS.
I drive like a maniac, so no problem there. As for the crash test, not going to do that personally.

I have had two SOHC Neons before, and they are great cars that have a little get up and go, easy on gas, and just a joy to drive.
I really need a new signature.

A maniac? What do you mean? How do you attack corners? How much do you speed? :P Give me details! <3
I will not admit anything that could be used in a court of law.



(I have done 100mph in every car that I have owned except the first one, and only because that car would not go faster than 92. The car I have driven the fastest in was a Neon.)


by maniac I mean taking corners at 30mph (uh 60ish KMh), gunning it on green, waiting till the last second, then come to a screeching halt at the stop sign.

I very rarely get passed on the interstate.

Me too, except I don't do the super fast turns, acc, and braking, because they wear down the tires too much (not something I can afford)

How do you manage your tires with that kind of in city handling?

I started driving my neon today.

It took me 37 dollars to register it until February. That’s when everyone in the state of Kansas whose last name begins with an "A" has to renew there registration.

It took 23 dollars to fill it up with premium gas.

What is the price of Gas in your neighborhood?

$1.85 a gallon for the cheap stuff, and 2.05 for 91 octane.

Buoysel, I'll make sure to pass you in my Challenger =P

(i'm too young to drive, but when i can, lol)

Also, Buoysel, does your Neon look anything like this:

Mine's a four door, but pretty much.



This is my car exactly, except my car sport written on it, and has tinted windows. The hub caps are even the same, well this one is nicer.

lol expensive.

$1.49 for regular.
Just when I though it was about to die. :D Thanks for saving it.

And now gas is down to 1.45 for regular.

So I wanted to rent a car, but all that was available were automatics.

I can't even find a manual car at car rentals....

I love winter driving. What's better then drifting without suffering tire-wear! :P

Gas is like $0.85 per liter here o_O

That's pricey.

Want to know why you can't rent a manual transmission? Ever heard of the Rent-A-Car-Nationals? Read entire article (It's has a funny ending.)

What do you think of the '09 Dodge Ram?

(If you don't know what all the hype is about, watch the video on my profile.)

But personally, I love it, and wish I had enough money to buy it.

I didn't catch any explanation in that article of why I can't rent manuals.

I don't like trucks generally speaking. I expect the RAM to be comfortable though.

Because people would abuse them. Speaking of abuse; I blew the doors off of a Geo Storm tonight, by at least 4 car lengths.

lmao @ street racer usertitle.
You know, like speed racer.

I had fun drifting today. Sort of. Speed too low, but I still did some small drifts.
Try gravel roads, easer to brake the tires loose. My hand brake isn't that strong. T_T

lol geo storm.

you street race?
No. :paranoid:

The guy was like: "my car is so quick, your car don't stand a chance."

I showed him. :D

And now that it is day light, It was probably closer to 8, but that is still a high guess. (maybe 6)

My handbrake isn't strong either, but it can still be locked if I pull hard enough.

Dude, gravel kills the car's bottom, so I can't... I think wearing down the tires is even safer then that.

But rest assured, our street's are all ice and snow right now. Better then gravel ;)

First time I ever drifted was on ice, and it was total Accidental , Been hooked ever since then.

Gravel roads don't kill the bottom. D:

I've lived on a gravel road most of my life, I've done 80 MPH on gravel. It's not as bad as you think. the dust does make your car dirty, but the bottom of your car is made of metal for a reason.

Rear wheel drive?

Lucky.

I'm stuck with FWD. I have to use the hand brake -_-
That's the crazy part, FWD. I think it was a total fluke.
