NEON CAR PARTS : I figure if Im not happy with the Neon after 3 years (when the warrantyexpires) I can trade it in towards a new whatever. I have never beenimpressed with the Civic. My sister had a '87 or '88 that I thought of asa coffin on wheels. The damned thing was soo small! The new ones are stillsmall to. She recently purchased a used Accord EX (for more than she canafford) and bypassed the Civic altogether. All the other cars in theNeon's class are just plain lame. The Tercel is boring and wimpy, thePaseo is an overprice Tercel with less room, the Sentra might as well be aTercel. The Geo Metro might as well be my sisters old civic minus acylinder (actually, I'd call it a coffin for a midget).I guess all in all Ive been driving these peice of shit econo-boxes fortoo long and when one comes along that offers more room and horsepower forthe same or less $$$ I get excited about it.
NEON CAR PARTS : This is a list of the "most tasteless" things you can put on a car.If you have one, or more of the following on your car, notify the "TastePolice", who will come out, and remove the following from your car, andthen tell you how to think for yourself. Avoid *any* car with the following - Bumper stickers - [My child is a honors student at ____ ____ school.][(any bumper sticker referring to your religion)](exempt if you are Satanic)[I (heart) (anything)](exempt it has a picture of Jeffrey Dalmer)Any sports bumper stickers.Any kind of radio/TV/media "If your car is spotted!" prize type sticker.[Ask Me About My Grandchildren][My other car is a _____] Licence Plate Frames - Any type with auto dealer information on it.Any "I'd Rather Be ________"(exempt if it reads "I'd Rather Be Wasting People At The Mall!"Gold/Silver frames with little "$"'s on it.Golf/Silver "chain" type plate frames.Gold/Silver "twisty" type frames.Neon (colored plastic).Neon (light up).Frames that go "beep beep" when backing up (heavy trucks exempt)Frames that light up, with a (car name here), or equivalent.Frames that have "running disco lights". (front tags) Rebel Flag.Nice cheezey air brushed scheme.Your initials.Poor, fake stupid "euro" tags that say "cool" things.(Again) dealer tag. Stickers - Okley: Thermonuclear Protection(exempt "Hokey! Thermonuclear Bullshit!")Bad Boy ClubAny kind of dark tinted windshield shade, that has the cars name on it,logo, or cute saying."You Toucha My Car, I Breaka Your Face!" NEON CAR PARTS : If I recall correctly, it's Herb Caen of the San Francisco Chronicle who savors the parodies of these, such as "My little delinquent isbeating up your honors student" and "My child is an honors studentat (name of local medium-security juvenile facility).Hmm. There's a nice little tableau at an apartment down the streetfrom me -- one car has a glue-on Jesus-is-a-fish logo; the one next to it has "Love Your Mother" (picture of the Earth) on one side and"Pagan and Proud" on the other. Also, if you have the monkeywrenchedJesus-is-a-fish -- the one in which the fish has legs and the word"Darwin" replaces "Jesus" -- you get enough special bonus points toexcuse either curb whiskers or a Playboy air freshener hanging from the mirror.A former boss of mine swears that one day he saw "I (red heart) my(picture of a dog), only with a picture of an, umm, industrial fastenerpasted over the red heart. NEON CAR PARTS : Even "Oakland Raiders -- L.A. Traitors"? Lighten up, man!Free pass into the Counter-Bad-Taste Hall of Fame for anyone who puts"My Other Car Is Also a VW" on a Porsche.A moment for seriousness: depending on your neighborhood, this kindof thing might diminish the wear and tear on the local kids. I'mconsidering a beeping backup light (never saw such a plate frame) toincrease the odds that little Cody from two doors down and his Stealthtricycle are going to make it to kindergarten.You forgot "Eat More Possum," which in its premier implementation has apicture of a dangling possum on it.How could you possibly forget pseudo-Testarossa rearview mirrors, which,in their most aggressively downscale implementation, are fluorescent pink?Even worse: cloth tops with ribs underneath them to convince theextremely gullible and somewhat vision-impaired that it's a convertible. NEON CAR PARTS : But the kids love them and will come from blocks around to push up anddown on your bumper to hear the alarm go off.Actually, the key to all of this is determining whether the owner takesit seriously or is making a parody display of that all-too-ridiculouspart of our lives, the automobile. I dearly love the yellow Toyotahereabouts that has a small rubber duck instead of a hood ornament.--Joe"Just another personal opinion from the People's Republic of Berkeley"In article , (Ad absurdum per aspera) writes:How about "My Other Car Is Also a Porsche" on a Porsche??I'm torn between that or "Don't Laugh, It's Paid For" on my 944. :-)Jon ==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-Q: What's the difference between a Porsche and a Porcupine?A: On the porcupine, the pricks are on the outside...In the article, (Dan Reed) writes: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ A local dealer was demo'ing one of these the other day. It was going through the warning steps "Please move away from the car" up to the time it activated the siren. As the siren was activated, the alarm said, in a dull monotone, "Help, I'm being tampered with!" Sheesh, what a lousy message! I'd be embarassed to have such a thing on my car. Maybe that's its objective - to EMBARASS the theives into going away! I wonder what the RAP version sounds like?
