2000 Plymouth Neon Highline
The 2000 Neon is a great economical car. I have not had any problems with it other than the normal things that would need done to a car while owning it. I would recommend this car to anyone look for something cheap to drive that looks pretty good too!
My First Car
I bought this car for 1500 and despite having only one previous owner, this person didn't do ANY maintenance on the car, and left all of that up to the next owner, me. The front power windows haven't worked since the purchase. A/C went out after 1 year. Chipping paint is pretty common on the front bumper. The front passenger speaker blew around 80k mi, and the in-dash speaker on the same side went as well around 92k. I have all aftermarket speakers in the car now. I had problems with the alternator twice, but only had to replace it once. It is comfy however; lots of room for 5 passengers. The CD changer broke on me when I tried playing burnt CDs, which lead to the replacement of the stereo.

Nice car
Bought car used 8 years ago now have 180,000 mi. A bit noisy at highway speeds. Engine has rear main oil leak and sprak plug tubes leak oil but the car is very depenable always starts. I've taken it on long trips. Great mileage
Look Elsewhere
Did not have a great experience with this car. Build quality was horrible. The brake pads fell off locking the wheel on way to work. Also had the brakes not work at all (vacuum problem) and almost ended up in the Bay. Lots of rattles, bumper faded (seems to be a usual problem with red Neons). Car feels small, but did have a comfortable seat. With seats down, you could fit quite a bit of stuff. Had a 5 speed manual transmission (automatic was only 3 speed!) which was a bit clunky. The rubberized plastic parts were peeling before I bought it, and only got worse (even with my obsessive car detailing!).
My aching back!
Ok, great gas mileage, excellent factory sound system! The drivers seat lumbar area is horrible. My back kills me after more than 15 minutes driving it. The breaks squeek constantly, and be prepared for major transmission work, or replacement.
