    Default Gotta new car

    Tired of driving around in a Tercel that ran on only 3 cylinders and wouldn't pass smog (the november 04 tags were starting to concern me, as it was almost november 05, and I still hadn't gotten the car smogged...) so I ended up going out and buying a Neon.

    2004 Dodge Neon SE (complete base model, manual windows, door locks, cassette, no bells or whistles)
    29,000 miles, still under MFG warrantee, $10,995

    Only complaints I have is no cruise control, and it's automatic, but it's a good daily driver, so I guess that the auto's not so bad. Drove it to LA the week I got it... I5 is boring as hell, even when you can cruise at 95+ most all the way.

    So... Anybody that I *was* going to buy anything from, if you're in a hurry to get rid of the parts, I'm no longer your guy, I want to get my eclipse going, but I'm going to take my time and get it going right... if you can hold on to the stuff until after the new year, I'll probably not be as broke after I catch up from the down payment and such.

    I'll try and get some pictures up after I wash it (it's white, and with the rain it's looking pretty schitty)
    Mods:

    Walboro 255/PTE 680cc injectors
    FMIC/14b turbo
    3" GM MAF with translator
    Stainless brake and clutch lines
    eibach springs, 2" drop, camber kit
