Hipster SRT-4 owner thinks calling it a Neon was cool before people called them Neons.

And no, that’s not peeling spoiler paint, its a half-assed snow camo wrap.

It’s a Neon.

Dodge Neon SRT4

Subaru Impreza WRX

Honda Civic Si

Mazdaspeed 3

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution [n]

They should’ve called the PT Cruiser GT an SRT4 as well

Neon was never in the official name or marketing.

BUT they were only found in the Neon or SRT sales brochures, and all the dealer material like service manuals, parts catalogs, all were under PL or NEON.

I was driving behind a lightly(assuming) modded SRT-4 Neon the other day, and oh boy did she sound good. But I still had to laugh at it as it had a very obviously fake dual exhuast. On tip was black with carbon build up, and the other was brand spankin’ new and shiny.

The Neon SRT-4 didn’t have Neon badges. It was just called the Dodge SRT-4.

Kinda like how the VW Golf GTI often is not called the Golf GTI and just VW GTI, at least in ‘Murrica, while outside ‘Murrica it is usually VW Golf GTI. It’s actually VW Golf GTI here in ‘Murrica at the moment but with VW USA you never know, they might decide they don’t want to call it a Golf anymore.
