I wouldn't believe a Neon......

This is a really fun car to drive and handles extremely well for the price. And yes, the sound system is fantastic. It accelerates very well and is great in turns and twisting roads. The gas mileage is more than adequate, and it's very roomy inside. My kids think there is more than enough elbow room. I would recommend this car to anyone. You won't regret buying the R/T model.

A R Pocket Rocket

This is flat out scary- a real pocket rocket! Reminds me of Carrol Shelby in his prime but sounds like the muscle car of the 60's. Seats let you know you are in a real sports car. Everythng in its size and class just watches as you go by. Not for the timid!

Why this car was built by Dodge

I have about 3500 miles now on my SRT4. Here is what I have to say about it. All the reviews I ever see about this car seem to usually miss the point of what this car is for. It's for FUN! Lets remember this when "experts" claim that it has a rough ride or when they complain about the "noise" the exhaust makes. Thats the core of why this car is here. Fun car for a VERY reasonable price for what you get. How many other cars do you know of that can spank most "sports cars" that cost twice as much? Not many. Drive this car and expect it for what it's for and you will never be disappointed.

SRT-4 can't go wrong

This car seriously hauls. If you can't take criticism very well do not consider this car because all you will receive are bad remarks. All civic SI, rsx type-s, celica gt-s drivers are all envious of the power this car has for the price. After you smoke them off the line the only response they have for you is "it's still a neon". You will have admirers out there as well. The only complaint I have about the car is the plasticky shift knob Dodge and the PVO boys need to change it out with an all aluminum/carbon fiber leather(found on boot and steering wheel) shift knob. Buy this car!

I recently bought the Neon and it is the most comfortable ride. It has a great audio system. when I rev it up, the car seems to soar on the highway. I was concern in buying a neon, but I think I chose a great car at a great price.

The Little Car That Can't

I dont own this car, just had the misfortune to rent it...However, I dislike it so much that I felt that I ought to write a review of it. This car has the loudest engine, the worst auto tranmission, crappy gas mileage, slow pickup, and horrible suspension. I drove my normal route on I-25 in CO and after getting out I felt like someone had put me in a paint mixer, this car needs a much smoother ride. It really lacks when compaired to a Corolla, Grand-Am, Civic, Stratus, or even a KIA.

Excellent vehicle to run around in

We have owned 4 Neons, 3 at present. Excellent 36+ mpg all highway. A little stiff on storage but otherwise fun to drive. AC is comfortable and heat is comfortfortable. Easy to maintain and wash. No problems with running. Virtually maintenance free with exception to regular oil changes and the like. Great in parking lots and tight spots. Fun to park. Maneuverability is excellent, ride is good on good roads but a little bumpy on rough roads. Fairly quiet ride with factory tires, better with newer better quality tires. Use cruise control all the time and like tilt wheel for better position on long drives. Power windows and mirrors are great and just love the sound from radio or CD player can play

My family bought this car brand new. We haven't had any problems with it until just recently. At 60,000 miles, the radiator broke. I want to get it fixed, but the mechanic doesn't guarantee that only the radiator is broken. Can't completely blame dodge for the break down, probably just a lack in regular service. Overall, it's a good little car. it's a shame to see it go this way.
