I bought my first one as my first car and didn't think much of it, it had a bunch of electrical gremlins living in it so i picked up another about a year later and built one good one out of two junky ones. Everything automotive I learned I owe to that car, did my head gasket, replaced an engine, rear main seal, complete new brakes, you name it I did it. I've owned quite a few cars since then and none of them were nearly as fun to drive and work(hard to believe that repairs can be fun) on as my Neon's!
I loved that car an always will, no matter what anyone says I will always have respect for 1gn Neon's and would like to pay tribute to the The Blur (that was its name ).
Anyway back on topic I knew about the Brookfeilds as they were pretty rare in the Neon community, I guess I'll have to just pick up one of these and do some work to it.
