having nothing to do with your car, I think your car itself is actually pretty good looking, this picture isn't that great, lost alot of detail and the blurred tree line and dual image tree in the front looks like crap. IMO the light is the only good looking thing in the picture and its really only the light ray effect that does not the bright ball of light in the middle (not including your car as stated before I think looks good, just not in this picture)...

broken, myfault, ls1 z28 (I think that was his old name, now LS2 powered), streetracegn and I are at sotsyndicate.com. though drew posts on srtforums more often than sot syn (usually making fun of people in off topic).

drew sold his neon a little while ago. he demodded it like a year ago though.

Im just hanging around here because someone linked to this thread on srtforums, and I figured Id throw in a few lines about mullets and ls1s topping out at 85.

I agree with your assessment I suppose....BUT..My biggest dislike is IT IS A DAMN NEON...this is LSX oriented,although if it was an older musclecar or a 03-04 Cobra...that would be fine....NO FRONT WHEEL DRIVES....****.

Yep, you can't say SRT4 on Tech (except for me), but you can win picture of the month with one

It's funny. This is the first time I have ever looked at a "pic of the month" -- didn't even know we had such a thing -- and it's a Neon!

FWIW, I like the car but if that's the pic of the month, this must have been one slow month. I think the judges just chose it to show that they aren't bias against non-LS1's or something.

Personally, I think that LS1 Tech's PotM should be an LS car; that's what I get on this site to see. I get on others to see different types. But, whatever. I'll forget about this thread by tomorrow...

Besides being a shitbox, it's not even a GOOD PICTURE... looks like all of the other over post-processed amateur HDRs that are all the trend right now.

i think the first requirement for "pic of the month" is that it should be an ls1!

Don't really care that it's a Neon but the picture isn't "Picture of the Month" quality. I'm sorry.

Now, aside from the picture quality, I think it should have been a different car. Honda Prius's, Chevrolet Aveo's, Chevy Cavalier's, Volkswagen Beetle's, Chevy Cobalts and Dodge Neon's are girl cars. Sorry, no if-ands-or buts about it. I mean c'mon, it's called a "NEON." How gay is that??

I don't give props to vehicles because they are putting down more horses than I or trapping low quarter miles. I take in the car as a whole. If you have a nine-second Honda Civic, . . . . . . . it's still a Honda Civic. I know girls would rather be seen in a 13-second stock Trans Am/Camaro/Mustang than a 9-second Civic. Trust me.

To the person that chose this picture:

At least is not few of us that agree to the LSx related site.
And yes whoever choses the pic of the month, just gives people's credit just to show is car enthusiast" or so mature to do so.
Leaving lsx people like WTH? being on the right site.

Honestly to the neon's owner: do you like when people talks about your car like that bro? I feel terrible now man, but really I just couldnt take so much crap. I have nothing agains it, as I mentioned in my family there are imports also but I just wouldnt take anybody's crap.
In other words this is not the right site "

Jesus everyone needs to stop being so jealous that their car lost. He won, give it a rest. It is what it is. The pic is fine. Personally I love his car, I've yet to see it in person unfortunately..

Um, its not that fact that anyone is jealous, its that the picture SUCKS! Sure the car may be nice, but the picture SUCKS! Plain and simple, and don't say I'm jealous because I haven't entered in like 3 months because I haven't had time to go take a picture worth mentioning.

PS Why isn't this thread just locked?
