The neon has more then 100hp, and that is true they were not around in 91. Depending on the transmission on the cars will help judge who would win. Isn't the GT a 6cyc. If so, this question should not even be asked they are a completely different class.

Trust me, I know also, Here is the breakdown though----I owned a 94 chevy beretta. The weight is 2795 lbs with 170 hp and 150 lbs of torqe, I had exaust, intake,high flow converter and ported heads on that car, I thought that car ripped ass and took names. Your cousins 2002 gt (if it's 2 door)is 3099 lbs stock with 175 hp and 205 lbs of torqe. If she's stock, she's pretty quick but, with all due respect not quick enough. With my mods, I hate to estimate any # figures but I'm sure my Hp and torqe rating went up at least 15, leaving me with a car that still weighs less than a stock 2002 gt and with a power rating that at least edges over the Grand am (at least in HP) I raced 5 maximas in my beretta, I lost to all of them. this was the 4th gen max that weighs 3001 lbs. Gearing has alot to do with a cars performance and thats where GM messed up on there v6's, take for instance the new Monte SS, (the engine is boo boo). 200 hp, yea right (over rated). A stock 190 hp 4th gen MAX (auto or 5 speed )will hand a Monte SS its rectum

There is a big difference in technology between a 94 Beretta and a 2002 Grand Am...two totally different engines.With acceleration of 0-60 in 7.5 seconds and 1/4 mile in 16.0 seconds I'd say thats not too bad.

Your absolutely right, and I'm not bashing GM in any way because like I mentioned I own one myself and I'll never sell the "thugretta" because me and that car has a history. Do they make the grand am gt in 5 speed by the way, if so that would be interesting
