Nice car, for what it is. - 2005 Dodge Neon
By Mike - August 9 - 6:43 pmWhen deciding to purchase a new car, I looked and test drove the 2005 Dodge Neon SXT Special Edition, the Ford Focus, and the Plymouth PT Cruiser. I felt I made the best decision for what Ive spent on the car since its initial purchase. Gas mileage in town is around 26-29 MPG and town/highway is around 31. The car is sporty and is fun to drive. The SXT Special Edition package was a definite plus in the factor of my purchase. The kicker 6-disc changer with 6 speakers and subwoofer sounds amazing, although dont expect to blow your doors off. The chrome 15" rims are nice, just not all that flashy. Id definitely recommend the Neon SXT if you dont want the price tag on a nicer car.

Real Performance - 2005 Dodge Neon
By IVIasta - June 7 - 10:00 amRefined from the begining, modded 2003 w/o limited slip, the LSD that comes standard is well worth the money, given the competition there is none, in its bracket only comparison is cars 10-15K more. i would suggest if youre looking for a cheap pocket rocket the SRT-4 should be at the top of your list.

Black SXT - 2005 Dodge Neon
By JR5 - March 13 - 10:00 amGood car overall. I have a dash rattle that drives me insane though. Gas milege isnt as good as hoped but the manual trans is fun to drive. Handles curves very well. Despite some minor issues the car begs to be driven. My initial impression was I would probably not purchase another neon, but after having it for a couple months its the only car I drive. Way more enjoyable to shoot around curves in than my Honda Accord. Also with the right driver you can smoke imports no problem.

Third Neon - 2005 Dodge Neon
By T R Nagel - March 10 - 8:50 pmThis is my third Neon. The continued upgrades prompted me to buy another one this year. Great pricing, great features, and peppy tight performance keep me coming back. I am really glad Dodge finally put in a four speed automatic transmission. Overall a fun, reliable, economical car.

Neon SXT with spoiler, dual exhaust package - 2005 Dodge Neon
By Nova W. - March 7 - 3:03 amIve owned older model Neons and I love my car so far. I think Dodge has improved on some of the problems. I have kids and its plenty roomy for the family and still sporty and fun to drive.

New to cars. - 2005 Dodge Neon
By Trisstis - January 29 - 8:00 pmBecause of the recent hike in gas, I sold my 99 S-10 and made the move to a smaller car. Its a huge difference to go from 20mpg highway to 32! I have a long commute, so I needed a fuel efficient, reliable and sporty little car. I really got it in this one, and it has a great sound system. Only con is that its really very silly to have power front windows...but not in the rear. Why did they do that?

SRT-4 - 2005 Dodge Neon
By Ryan Chorzempa - January 8 - 8:33 pmThe raw amount of power this vehicle has in its small package is simply awesome. Never have I seen a stock torque curve in a car for around $20,000 like this one, and the upgrade options for the SRT-4 are also amazing. Consumers will love the fact that Mopar (Daimler-Chrysler parts division) produces factory upgrade kits for the vehicle. And in regards to the ever important fuel economy, you cannot beat a turbo I-4: Keep the vehicle out of boost when you are trying to conserve fuel and mash the throttle when you want to roast your tires. Simply put, this is the best car for its price.
