Pros: Safe, dependable, economical, over all great little car. Cons: Brakes are very noisy , but usually just when moisture gets in there. The Bottom Line: Most certainly will recommend this car to anyone. Safety is the key in all we do!! And from personal experience, I know this is one safe car to drive.
I bought my Neon 4 Dr Highline in 1999 when it had nearly 40,000 miles on it. On June 9, 2001, it was totaled when someone pulled out directly in front of me and my 3 children and I T-boned her in her passenger side. Both air bags blew and there were no...

Pros: Good price, good mileage Cons: Some odd colors, noisy drive
This was my first car purchase. I have a 97 Neon Expresso 4 door. I choose the Neon mostly because I could afford it. The interior of the Expresso models have what they call "highlights." I call them silly rainbow things. It's really my...

First I...

Pros: looks? price, interior room Cons: reliability
I bought a plymouth Neon brand new at the end of the 97 model year. I got 2000 cash back. I thought it might be a good choice for getting a new car. All in all, it was not a bad choice...but, especially in cold areas, not the best one.

Pros: great gas mileage, easy to drive, inexpensive, dependable Cons: suspension isn't great, needs more front stabilization, HEAD GASKET PROBLEMS The Bottom Line: Beware of head gasket leaks! Other than that, I love this car still. Luckily, Chrysler has been pretty good about helping out with repair bills.
I have a 1997 neon that was purchased new. It has been extremely dependable on long and short trips. I have driven this car cross-country with everything I own in it and it got great gas mileage. For the entire trip, loaded to the gills with a friend,...

Pros: fast, good pick up speed Cons: everything else sucked
Both of my best friends owns 2 different years of Neon. The neon it self it's like plastics, can't take too much beating and you can not drive about 80 MPH, because the the whole car will shake.
The car is too thin, by that mean is that during in...
