Reviewed a 2000 Dodge Neon on May 21, 2011
It is a very nice and affordable car. Mine is at 105k miles and the only thing that I had a problem with was the crank Position Sensor, somehow oil had leaked through to the electronics and was shorting out. But the part is only 65 bucks at autozone so not a huge deal. It looks nice, (I prefer the look and performance of the years 03-05), But the earlier ones are much cheaper. Mine is a manual and it has averaged 32-33 miles per gallon, without any modifications. I have a base of the line model so I do not have any features, but I have gotten a nice radio for it and the factory speakers are decent. This car is pretty fun to drive around, the acceleration is a little slow but I found a way to speed up faster is to shift at about 15,25,35,45 miles per hour (instead of about 10,20,30,40). Keep in mind since you are going faster that you will have to give it gas while you are letting off the clutch or it will slow you down and and make your mileage worse. Fun car though, and great for the new/young driver (most of them are 4 door and do not increase your insurance).

It is one of the easiest cars to drive, besides its youthful design. It accelerates steadily and is easy to custom. Yet I think the alarm system could be more efficient :) And as a tall person... I can say that the space is incredible, I never had problems with height and length of the seat, nor the steering wheel!

It drives so easy. And it's so easy on gas! I drive it every where and I couldn't be happier with it. It's very low maintanance and costs maybe 100- 150 in gas a month. I love driving this car around. I recommend this car to all my friends and family.

I drove this car for 13 years & it always ran like a champ. Reliable, economical, easy to park and just a great car. Low maintenance costs and great fuel economy makes this a winner. I'd drive it all over again.

The Neon never really got a fighting chance. Introduced in 1995 as both a Dodge and Plymouth (it replaced the Shadow and Sundance) this four-door sedan or two-door coupe subcompact was always considered second-class to the Civic or Corolla. It had its fair share of mechanical problems in its first years that aggravated many buyers, but what is not well known is that the Dodge Neon was faster, roomier, and sportier than any of its competition for many years.
It initially offered a unique twin-cam engine in its Sport coupe that made the Neon fly at the slightest touch of its gas pedal. The cab-forward design, which lengthened and widened the wheelbase by bringing the wheels farther out to the edges of the car, added stability and extra interior room. The backseat, while not spacious, was much more comfortable than other subcompacts, offering more legroom and headroom.
A subcompact is all about affordability, because it is oftenthe first car choice for most people. But the Neon seemed to be more focused on performance and style as well, offering sport packages and trims, which made it popular early on because it was so fun to drive. As a result, it never offered many creature comforts, and as other subcompacts did, drivers gravitated towards those cars. Over the years, it fell more in line with other subcompacts and dropped its sport trims and its coupe, but a reputation for unreliability left the Neon still struggling to prove its worth.
The Dodge Neon's biggest selling points always remained its roomy interior and its powerful engine. Handling was smooth, easy, and agile, and it tackled snow and wet roads surprisingly well. Despite Chrysler's attempts to fix problems such as head gasket failures, excessive wind noise, and options packages, the Neon never quite got it right in those departments.
