Hi everybody,
I´m Matthias from Germany and just signed up and wanted to say "Hello" to all you guys around!
I´ve got a 1999 2nd Gen Neon 2.0 LX and til now (got the car in December 07) I´m really satisfied with it.
It´s got that dark blue metallic colour (aahh...it´s "Patriot Blue") and beige leather seats and so on. No real specials.
I just asked BlackRoseRacing to get me a CruiseControlKit, because the Dollar/Euro is so good right now that I won´t buy it here in Germany and save $300!!! That would be my only "special" part in my car then.

So, see ya all in the future!!

Matthias

Welcome! I'm interested to see your car. Are you sure the car is a '99? Second gen didn't start until '00, even in Europe. Just a FYI, don't go by the production date (since it probably says 99). The 10th digit of your VIN should be a "Y".

But enough nit picking. Post some pictures and enjoy the forum

Yep, 10th digit is a "Y"!
Pictures as soon as I found them on my PC.

You need an image hosting website. I use www.photobucket.com. Load your pics to there and then copy the direct link to here and just click the img button before the link and after [img]link[/img]

Any export Neons are special to us! Welcome to 2GN!

Thank you all for welcoming me!

In the meantime I had my Sony radio installed and with the summer lying ahead I changed to summer tires with the standard Chrysler Neon LX rims.

Here´s my first shot at posting pics:

You have the leather armrest...

And the adjustable rear headrests and rear fog lights- all the export model goodies I wish that my car had.

You´re right.They´re all there, but to be able to place your head in/on (?) the headrests you should´ve been working as an artist in the circus for at least 10 yrs!!!!!!!!!

rear fog lights? huh? what are those?

Passt · Post by **Passt** » Sat Mar 29, 2008 2:37 pm

Those lights in the bumper

Demon_R/T · Post by **Demon_R/T** » Sat Mar 29, 2008 2:57 pm

whats the purpose of those?

Passt · Post by **Passt** » Sat Mar 29, 2008 3:30 pm

I believe they're just part of Germany's (if not europe's) standard safety equipment codes, like we have certain standards every vehicle has to meet in order to run on the road.

Hmmm...what could be the purpose of fog lights?

To see and be seen.
If the visibility is limited to e.g. 50yds I promise you, you will be very happy to be able to see the car in front of you as early as possible.
Here in Germany it´s only allowed to switch ´em on when the visibility is less than 50meters (ca. 50yds).
