24. Dodge Neon R/T
In addition to the ACR, there was also another performance version of the Neon as well. The R/T didn’t have all of the special edition bodywork of the ACR. But it did have the same peppy performance consumers came to expect from the ACR. The price difference was dramatically different, but the 150HP twin-cam engine was still a performer. The problem with the Neon R/T from this period still centered around the cheap interior.

In terms of being a performer, the Neon R/T was fun to drive, but it was far from a capable sports car. Chrysler would fix these issues in the next generation SRT-4 that came out after the new millennium. There’s no denying that the Neon R/T had the potential to be a superb sports car in terms of design and implementation. Designwise, the Neon R/T just lacked the quality that you’d expect.
