The Neon R/T has a 150-horsepower, 2.0 liter twin overhead cam four. It
gets to 60 in 7.5 seconds and runs the quarter in 15.9 @ 87 mph. Top speed
is 121 mph. It also pulls .82 g on the skidpad. Not too shabby for a nice
looking little car that gets 29/38 mpg and costs only $13,795. If I was in
the market for an affordable sporty car, the neon r/t would be it. (btw all
this info came from the february issue of Car and Driver)
