Used Dodge Neon for Sale

While the car is small and larger or taller users might find it a bit cramped or find that using it to move from one place or another isn't it's strong suit this vehicle really shines when it comes to fuel economy. On the interstate I get about 35 mpg and in city it is about 30. While not spacious the car is still a four door despite having a spoiler on it thus giving it a sporty look with out sacrificing utility and ease of access that you gain from having four doors. Despite it's light weight and small size it performs admirably in the snow and wet roads. This car can get upwards of 80 mph before she begins to shake, I am not sure if that is because of a faulty component some where or if that is just how much the car can take. The interior is set up fairly well with a lift-able arm rest for extra storage, spacious side compartments on the doors and seats that can slide all of the way back to for those with longer legs. This cars biggest fault is it's lack of cruise control making long trips harder due to your constant need to monitor speed.

The dodge neon is one of the worst cars I've ever owned. It won't even do me the favor of breaking in a big enough way that I can justify getting rid of it. It is not comfortable, I'm only 160lbs and I can feel the bars that hold the seat together. It handles crappy, sometimes it seems to turn faster and sometimes slower. I've replaced all the steering and suspension components and had an alignment but the problem continues. I suspect incorrect caster but that isn't adjustable on this car. The car looks sporty but has very little power. It seems about as peppy as my old ford escort. But the neon also get crappy mileage. I average 27mpg. For comparison the other two cars I've owned while I had this one where a ford escort, 35 mpg, and a Hyundai elantra 32 mpg. Both of them were also more comfortable. The neon has enough brakes to stop when you need to but they aren't anything special, just not as crappy as the rest of the car. The best thing about it is the appearance. It looks good from the front. Sporty and smooth, the side looks ok too as long as you over look that the back is way higher than the front. From the back it looks silly though because you can see halfway under the car. Yes it is tilted that much from the back to the front. As long as you get a nice muffler the back could look ok though. Also I don't know if I got lucky or if Chrysler got really cheap but my neon is the first car built after 2000 that I've seen that doesn't have cruise control. You can live without it but on my other cars I use it all the time so the neon is annoying. Another oddity is that the front windows and side mirrors are power but the rear windows are manual cranks. I don't get it. The last problem I have is keeping it working. It has the amazing ability to start and drive every day, but have something break almost weekly. I have to fix it the day before it gets inspected so nothing new has time to break and it will pass. Tie rod ends, wheel bearings, brake calipers, control arm bushings, oxygen sensors, plug wires, coolant leaks, rusted out exhaust, door locks, intake manifold gaskets and probably some other things I'm forgetting have all broken and been fixed. You wouldn't believe the thing still runs but somehow it always runs and always runs poorly. I would never recommend buying this car and I will never buy one again.

I bought this car over a year ago. I got a great deal on it. I love everything about this car , from the wheels to the steering wheel. It is the best car i have ever laid eyes on. It is durable , cheap for parts and very dependable . It is very great on gas. I have the car in black and would recommend adding a spoiler . They work perfect on the car. It is a great first car or for anyone wanting a cheap durable ride. This car awesome and i have not had a problem with this great car.
