2005 Dodge Neon Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
Over the years, the Dodge Neon has seen some of its lead in speed, style, roominess, and agility wane as Honda, Toyota, and Ford have built more competitive subcompacts that last longer and offer more creature comforts. The 2005 Neon is the last year for this 4-door sedan, as Dodge prepares to release the 4-door Caliber wagon.
The R/T was dropped in 2005, leaving only the base SE sedan and SXT trims. However, the SXT was offered with an SRT Package, which added a lot of the sporty features of that car, minus the engine. Fog lamps, dual exhaust, a rear spoiler, and a hood bulge at least made the SXT look racy, even if it didn't act like it. Still, with the 2.0-liter, 132-hp, 4-cylinder engine, the Neon was no layabout. It was much quicker off the line than most subcompacts, and its unique suspension and long wheelbase helped make it easy to maneuver quickly and smoothly.
The 2005 Neon was an affordable starter family car as well, with room for four and such features as a 60/40 split rear seat. Good gas mileage also made it easy on the wallet. The Neon was always popular for its handling and the fun driving experience, which surprised many owners. Instant and easy acceleration made the 2005 Neon feel like an energetic roadster. Good availability of after-market parts made the Neon a fun car to tune as well. Low points included very loud wind and road noise, which Dodge never seemed to fix, a cheap-looking interior, few amenities on the SE, and a wide turning radius for such a small car.

It died within a hundred yards of the parking lot when I test drove it. It came back after I turned it off and back on, but I think the electrical harness is in need of replacement.Nov 02, 2023

Yes I like they look of the car, but I did not buy it for the look. It is a good second car for me. I always felt safe in it, and it handled well. If you take care of it, it should remain a reliable car.Oct 30, 2014

It vibrates more than other cars of it's kind. Other cars of it's kind get slightly better gas mileage. But,it does save a lot in gas and it 's very reliable. The styling of the car is a bit funny but fits in with the name.May 02, 2014

The dodge Neon's where nice basic cars that had trim models that even made some of the them look cool. The low cost to maintain the Neon is helps to make the care a real deal and the fact so many where made parts are also easy to get. The only issue that some owners see is transmission issues after around 150K miles.May 17, 2013

The color and body style of the car is what caught my eye when I bought it. It has over 100,000 miles on it and we have never had any major problems with it. The reason I am looking for another car is my kids are all grown and on their own, I am currently separated from my husband so I want something sporty and eye catching now.Sep 10, 2012

Great car! Automatic! Lasts forever as long as you take care of it! Sound system is great since the car acts like a box! Seats are very soft and in great condition. Gas mileage is awesome! Can drive to the nearest corner store or across the country! Jul 31, 2010

Please be specific. For example, write about:
Performance - acceleration, braking, handling
Build Quality - has it needed repairs? squeaks/rattles
Appearance - both interior and exterior styling
Cost of Ownership - gas mileage, maintenance
Fun Factor - is this car fun to drive? shananananaFeb 14, 2010

I really enjoy this car it runs very well and I haven't had any problems with it at all. It looks good and the interior is functional. It handles nicely and is fun to drive but I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking for a performance car.Oct 24, 2009

Its a throw away cheap car for work that I pound alot of miles on. Over 100,000 in three years. Its orange and shiny but not the best built car. It leaks when it rains and smells like dog ass after it rains for a long period of time.Aug 31, 2009

This was my first new car purchased in March 05. Its Orange Blast metallic. 2.0 SOCH mated to an ATX. Acceleration isnt the greatest with the ATX, but the car will carve up a twisty road. Only probs. I had with it was a idle sensor and a bad injector. The car has almost 60k on it and still feels like the day I brought her home. Gas mileage is near 30.Dec 30, 2008

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. Aug 12, 2008
