Being the honest guy that I am, I have to admit that I voted and it wasn't for any of the top 3. I voted for the Neon...

Okay, let the flaming begin...

Yes I voted for the Cobra Greg.

Neon, isn't that the car that can't make up it's mind? One day it is a Dodge Neon and the next day it's a Plymouth?

Actually, it was always a Dodge Neon and Plymouth Neon until Plymouth went bye-bye. You know, like a Ford Mustang and Mercury Capri back in the early 80's. Or the Ford Ranger and Mazda B-Series pickup. Or the Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator.

I actually owned a Plymouth Neon way back in '95. It's a great commuter car. My brother wasn't as lucky with his Neon. He got a lemon.

But, that SRT-4 looks like A LOT of fun. We'll have to see how it does in real life though. I have a feeling it'll put a serious hurtin' on my SVT Focus until the '05 225hp Focus comes out.

I guess my point was you didn't see it called Mercury Mustang and the next year a Ford Mustang. It has always been a Ford Mustang and Mercury Capri regardless. But the other day I saw a Plymouth Neon and low and behold there was a Dodge Neon right next to it so I figured that was unusual for the same name to be on different makes of cars regardles of who the manufacturer.

The Lincoln SUV no where looks like the Expedition, they are uglier in my opinion.

Yeah, I guess they couldn't think of another name for it. They were produced in the same years though. I kept waiting for an "upscale" Chrysler version to come out.

And I agree with the Navigator comment. Ford put a few different pieces of skin on, slapped some fake wood on the inside and charged $10K more for it. The worst part is that it actually sells! Mostly to the people waging war in the "class wars". LOL!

Of course the new one has those retractable running boards and electric rear hatch. That's a good reason to spend the extra $10K.
