I bought my Dodge Neon used with 40,000
miles. Now, at 70,000 miles, I cannot
wait to get it off my hands. The car
is poorly constructed. I've spent way
too much of my free time fixing the
car. Only 3 months ago I dropped
almost a grand on a tune-up. Now, the
head gasket is broken and I have engine
damage. Why did Dodge continue to make
this car when they knew the head
gaskets would go with so few miles?
It's a very expensive thing to fix.
For a little more money, I could have
had a reliable car and peace of mind.

my experience has been good with the 98
neon r/t. just look at it for what it's
wortha cheap car. build quality and
dash components need some work.
performance and fun are high points.
car corners like a dreamonly 2500 lbs
dodge has done a great job with
suspension. the dohc requires premium
gas, but you get better gas mileage
(29/38 mpg) and more power from the
engine (150hp.) the seats may feel
tight for normal people, but just right
for small/skinny people. abs, sun roof,
dohc, etc. are some good options. the
rear windows didn't come as automatic,
though. 5th gear whines and can get a
little loud. it's a darn good car for
the price.

The Neon has plenty of pep. I find no
fault with the appearance. My major
concern is the space between the
steering wheel and the driver's
knees when there is no tilt wheel. I
have Parkinson's and it takes 5
minutes for me to extract myself from
the car.

The most fun and bang for the buck of
any car on the road. What other car
does 0-60 in 7.5 seconds, 1/4 mile in
15.9 seconds and slams the top speed
limiter at 130 MPH, and only listed for
$13,700... and there was a $1,500 cash
rebate to Boot. Looks... well okay...
but it was TOPS in its Road Race and
Autocross class.

Review
Neon R/T's are fun to drive; horrible
to maintain. The sunroof broke (in
the open position) twice under
warranty, and again out of the
warranty (I refuse to fix it).
Transmission broke 10,000 miles past
warranty due to "defective gasket."
Head gasket blew at 65,000.
Currently, mine overheats, regardless
of what the outside temperature, due
to what my mechanic describes as "poor
engineering." Also, one window rolls
down faster than the other. (??)

This car was bought as a simple
commuting vehicle. I soon discovered
how much fun it is to drive. The 5
speed trans and DOHC engine were more
than sufficient. However, a polished
and ported head, racing cams, headers,
bigger throttle body and exhaust make
for a truly exciting driving
experience. A body kit is being added
so looks match performance.
