Hey guys, Im jon.....and although I don't currently own a 2G neon (I've had a couple in the past), I do have a 1st gen Coupe. I'm a member of the other forums, so I figured why not this one??

thanks for the welcome. I have a few diff sets of wheels for it, 15s...and 16s. But here she is in her full Lapis Blue glory. Rarer color (especially with original paint). Was my sis's when new....she was the one who liked Smurf Blue lol
had pretty much all the bolt ons I could throw on it, along with JE Pistons/Eagle rods. It's not a daily, I mainly autocross with it. Suspension is new, but still stock spec. Only addition was strut braces. It does pretty well.

Welcome! Nice leper blue you have there
Is the paint still in great shape? If so, that is rare indeed.

The paint finish is perfect. Deep gloss, no fade, no peeling (no factory orange peel either. Some neon colors weren't exactly "glass-smooth"). Always washed and waxed by hand. I wouldn't dare take a pressure washer to it though....would be scared of what might happen lol
Im from N.B, but bounce back and forth between there and Ontario
