Basically, the title says it all. What are the differences between an ACR and a R/T?
If I had a nice running, driving example, approximately what would it be worth? Talking first gen Coupe only.

Front hubs and all four struts are different. R/T has a spoiler on the trunk and foglights. That's it for differences. As for what it's worth? Not much unless you find a buyer that's looking for exactly what you have and is willing to pay.
ACR sedan was SOHC, coupe was DOHC. Factory Konis on the ACR, no body trim on the sides of the ACR.
Also, I believe there was a special upholstery fabric for ACRs?
ACR also came with 4-wheel disc brakes no abs could have air conditioning and power steering delete. PCM was different with it much more different calibration and the trans had a different final drive and overall ratio. ACR also had a quicker steering rack. ACR was based off of a base model for lighter-weight where the RT was based off the premium. Both had front and rear sway bars I'm stiffer Springs. ACR Springs were slightly different than the RT
Correct. And no side moulding. Some stereo delete cars. Factory eccentrics on all corners. Leather steering wheel and shuft knob with base interior.
Rt was a highline eith wuicker ratio steering, different trans, front and rear sway bars, and 4 wheel disc.

Hmmmm? Tell me more. What color is it?
If neons.org is still around, look there. Some incorrect info is posted here. The R/T had the same transmission, final drive, springs, anti-roll bars and brakes as the ACR. The R/T lacked the Koni struts and thicker front hubs, that's it. I'm referring to the DOHC cars.

This is in perfect agreement with the info I've been able to gather from various sources.

It looked like a smoking deal which explains why the ad is down.

Unrelated but there's nothing about an R/t or ACR performance wise that cant be easily replicated or bettered on any other 1g neon. Unless you're going to leave it stock, those trim levels are mostly getting you a name. If you get a smoking deal on one that's great, but if you're paying full retail for a nice ACR or RT you could buy a nice base model for less money and mod it up to the same performance for the same or less money.
