I'd buy another
This is our second Neon and, for the price, it's worth the investment. You get a lot of car for the money when compared to what Honda, Toyota and Nissan has to offer. The incentives and rebates make Neon the top choice in my book. I've found that dealing with a 5- Star dealer is a definate plus.
Great car for the money
I bought this car almost 2 years ago with 27,000 miles on it for $4500. A Dodge Neon was the last thing that I thought I would buy, but it was in my price range, and I didn't have a lot of time to shop around. My Neon now has about 55,000 miles on it, and the only thing that I've had to do to my car is new front brakes (normal) and new tires (I live in Michigan, Neon's don't like snow). The tires were pretty expensive, but there's usually a less expensive option for them. Right now my car is making a pretty loud noise from the front axle, which i'll be fixing soon (I'm pretty sure it's the wheel bearing). Overall I'm very happy with my car. I only wish that it wasn't purple!

2000 Neon
I purchased this car last year. It only has 31,000 on it and was in excellent condition. I was originally looking for a newer car but this car was in our budget. I was vert leary at first having owned a 1996 model that fell apart at 70,000 miles. This difference in the models is great. The only problem we had with this car is an oil pan because a previous mechanic overtightened the drainbolt. We added a CD player and added BFGoodrich Traction TAs and it is great car. It gets over 30mpg. If you have owned a first generation model you will really be superised.
I absolutely love my car!
My Neon is the first car I've ever had and I love it. It's as standard as it comes, no power windows or locks, no overdrive, and it had been a rental car as well. I've had this car since 2001 and I have not had one problem with it. The obvious things like spark plugs or changing a bulb in a light but that's it. It gets me where I need to go, and it looks good in the process. I would recommend Neon to anyone, and I'd buy another one if given the opportunity.
built on a Friday
I had to give this car a 1 all the way down mostly because of the crappy service I got at Lucas Dodge in NJ. My neon has an intermittant electrical problem that made my car die at least twice a week. Lucas said nothing was wrong with my car or they were too stupid to fix it. Also a/c compressor went out and oil leaks all over the place. Do not buy a Dodge, especially a neon! Definately steer clear of the new svt or whatever it's called. It's just going to be a highly polished turd.
will never buy a dodge again
We have had a problem with the car since we bought it. As far as we know there was only one other owner, and why she traded it in, I can guess why. First it was the struts, then the brakes, transmission, knocking noise, air conditioning, I could go on and on.
Neon in Neutral
The Neon has been fairly reliable and gets excellent gas mileage. It's a five speed which helps with mileage and makes it more valuable.The car has held up well overall and now has 103,000 miles. It makes a loud whining sound whenever turning the steering wheel which is obnoxious. The ride isn't very smooth, but I guess that's the case with most small cars.
Need more parts
I can't keep up. This car is starving me and it's not paid off yet. - 2 fuel injectors - Computer - Speed Sensor Relay - Axle trouble. (Some bearing) - Brakes - Tire size is so non-standerd they charge extra. - Air Conditioner
Nice car!
Good car, more than enough power stock, although more never hurt. Never had one problem with mine, only the factory recall issues 2 to date that I have gotten nothing really. Good design, nice new look, great gas milage, I always get more than 300 miles per tank.
2000 Neon
it rides comfortably with good lumbar support and with a fairly comfortable backseat ride. Problems are the front seat space if you are very small people it's fine but if you are on the large side you are constatnly bumping shoulders. The bars between the doors and windshiled cause a blind spot and are hazardous. Interior front and back windows are difficult to clean. Gas mileage for city driving is about 12 miles to the gallon but highway goes up to about 35. Mopar products are not dependable as in 3 batteries in 3 years. Minimal amounts of moisture in the air will cause the brakes to squeal, another Mopar product. Poor weatherstriping
