Heh, the only way to get rid of the gap was to get coilovers, which busted my top mounts and bent up the bottem of that bracket that holds the lower control arm. So the gap didnt cause the problems, fixing the gap caused the problems.

I'm sure my list is repeated, but here goes:

1. Ass end sits too high
2. No electric Rear windows
3. Old style trunk hinges
4. Trunk Release Button in Glove Box (took care of this one this week).
5. Lack of power with A/C on, &/or another person in the car. (I can barely move with AC on, and wife and small kids in car).
6. Stock tires too skinny
7. Stock muffler too wimpy looking and sounding
8. Gas tank too small
9. Econo-car (cheap) status
10. resale value
Traded 05 SXT mtx, for new 07 Fusion SE I4 5A.

for my particular car....I hate the rattles from the back seat area...never can figure out what they are.
I hate the way i have those stupid acid rain spots that wont come off my glass :(.
I hate the rear drums


and i think thats it...I love my car :D


for stock neons:
I hate the 00-01 front bumper
I hate the stock hubcaps
I hate the tan cloth seats
I hate the wheel gap that makes it look like an offroader going downhill all the time.
I hate the rear drums
I hate the way the tip on the muffler curves down istnead of straight or up...i think it looks so wierd (my caliber is like that too :? )

The only things I didn't like were due to things I did. The code and CEL due to the exhaust set-up, and the flickering of the speedhut guages. Other then that I loved it from day one right up to the end, and in fact still do. If it would of been feasable I would of kept it and got the Charager.
