I think most of us can say it there is a car/truck/bike they used to have that they wish they never let go. We all had good reasons at the time, maybe they are still good reasons.

I have a few, here is one I found while looking around on some servers the other day.

I know its wearing two different sets of wheels, ands its dirty, this pic must be atleast 5 years old.

I have one,its the Chrysler Intrepid that we had before i got my outback.
I loved the feeling of it pulling when you put the gas pedal to the floor.
I liked the comfort,the size of it,and the feeling of soft american with a big engine.It was the first american car i had ever driven,it was the first car that i used to do a lot of stupid fast things,it was basicly my first car,I love my old intrepid :-(

I still can't figure this out.

WHEN WERE CHRYSLER INTREPIDS MADE? I have yet to ever see one in person, even though I see some on Autotrader from time to time.

btw I was a big fan of the Intrepid/300m/LHS (I would still buy a 300m in a heartbeat)

The one i miss is my old '92 Integra LS, bought it with 196k miles, sold it with 226k. It was always there and reliable.

Didn't realize he was from Canada :roll:

I have seen a few Chrysler Neons running around, but that was right after Plymouth went bust and I just figured Chrysler rebadged them to sell them.

Was supposed to be mine but we moved when I was 15 and we couldn't hang on to it. :cry: The body was falling apart, but it still ran beautifully. My plan was to take the money I was going to spend on a car and use it to fix what I could.


To this day its still probably the baddest car I've ever been in.

so far the only thing that i have left behind is a 86 F-150, it was a 4 speed with a I6, and i dont miss it at all. its still in the family, and when ever i drive it i feel like i might die.... but really i consider my first car my integra which i picked up a few years ago, and im never letting that go (its guna become a track beater) and i just picked up the legacy a couple weeks ago, so right now, im not missing anything!

Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth, same thing.

People look at me like I'm stupid if I call it a Chrysler Neon. :shrug:

I'd like to say no matter what badge it has, its still crap.. BUT, I drove a Plymouth Neon Expresso once and it was kinda fun, mainly because I got to beat the crap out of it but nevertheless I enjoyed it.

seems like everybody in my school dirves a neon. Only the older ones like from 95-99. my school only has 300 kids and my best friends twin bro, drives a red neon, my other budy dirves a red one, and then another friend of mine drives another red neon. all four doors. Another buddy of mine Dusty drives a 97 White 2 door neon, 2.0? It moves, has a really nice tight suspension, perfect for back roads, it beat my buddys jetta. but not my legacy. still a fun little car thought. but by far, the funest car i have ever driven is a 69 chevy nova my dad built. it has a 454 edlebrock crate motor :grin: , very fun car!
