Like i expressed in my Introduce Yourself post i am in the market for a Neon, I have found a 1999 Competition Sedan, white. Is there anything i should look at before making my final purchase?

Check the trunk for leaking taillight gaskets, ask when the timing belt was last replaced, and make sure it has a MLS head gasket.

Odd, I bought my '97 ACR from a guy in Owensboro, you know Bryan Devine?

I'm getting it from someone i know. It's been taken care of, and they only want 700 for it. :)

$700 for a '99 ACR (Competition) sedan? '99s were pretty rare.

You going to try and race it at all? That car would be perfect for an SCCA Solo (auto-x) beginner.

I'm not sure what SCCA region you would be in, but check this for more info:

well aparently, the guy who sold the car to me didnt know much about it. its actually a 98 Highline.
the left quarter pannel is a bit fucked, but the way i see it, with the deal im getting, i care less.
here are some pics i snapped.

Still, it looks like a good deal though even if it isn't an ACR.
