This Year's Model Updates:

Everything's new inside and out, as the second-generation 2000 Dodge Neon grows up, not old. A totally redesigned suspension and steering system, low-speed traction control, and a complete exterior redesign head up the notable changes.

Pros:
  • Large interior, competent handling, attractive interior and exterior styling.
Cons:
  • Noisy engine, archaic three-speed automatic transmission, lack of feature content.

  • Awesome - 2000 Dodge Neon
    By -

    What a great little car! I bought it as my first car for $300 with 149000 miles not too bad for 12 years old. It has few problems but I heard neons are easy to work on. Its also very comfortable and more interior room and features compared to the older past generation neon. Hope to have this car for a long time and get it running in time to get my license wish me luck with my new car eveyone bye! 2000 Dodge neon ES Automatic

  • I absolutely love my car! - 2000 Dodge Neon

    My Neon is the first car Ive ever had and I love it. Its as standard as it comes, no power windows or locks, no overdrive, and it had been a rental car as well. Ive had this car since 2001 and I have not had one problem with it. The obvious things like spark plugs or changing a bulb in a light but thats it. It gets me where I need to go, and it looks good in the process. I would recommend Neon to anyone, and Id buy another one if given the opportunity.

    I bought my Neon a year ago. So far Ive had no problems with it, just new tires. I bought it when I wrecked my Intrepid and I needed a car in a fix. I bought my Neon for $4,500 with 27,000 miles on it. Ive never cared much for Neons because I used to work at an auto parts store and people that had them would always complain about them. But it was a good deal when I needed one. A year later, Im glad that I bought this car.

  • Better than Honda - 2000 Dodge Neon
    By -

    I was having so much trouble with my Honda Odyessy that i needed to buy a vehicle to drive while the Honda was getting its second transmission. I went next door to the Dodge dealership and bought this. I love it. It is more reliable than my Honda ever was. I thinking of selling the van and just driving this. I hated getting stranded in the van all of the time. I would buy another Dodge in a minute over a Japanese brand

  • Great first car - 2000 Dodge Neon
    By -

    A great first car. Good looking, friends love it. I got the stick shift and its a blast to drive. Handles great, except not in the rain so much, and it tends to get stuck a lot on large piles of snow. Easy to modify, I added a tachometer, foglights, and remote control locks. Great pickup and very fast, I beat my friends Saab 900 in a couple of races. All in all a great car, cheap to maintain. Ive put 12000 miles on it in the last 8 months (which brings it to 96000 miles) and havent had to do anything to it other than change the spark plugs. Id definitely buy another one.

    I have spent less money on repairing this car than I have on toothpaste.

    Why the disdain for the Neon? Reliable vehicle with a relatively fresh exterior. Perhaps the first generation had several bugs, but this vehicle only sees the dealership for routine maintenance.

  • I love my little Neon - 2000 Dodge Neon

    I love my little neon so far! I chose this over a Chevy Malibu after reading all the horrible reviews and problems that Malibus have. If you are looking for problems on cars, EVERY car has its problems, I dont know one single car that hasnt had SOMETHING go wrong with it. This car will treat you right if you treat it right. Take good care of it and do regular maintance. Feed it its oil and gas and every once in a while, give her a bath and she will be your new best friend.

  • Good Car For The Money - 2000 Dodge Neon
    By -

    Bought the car new in 2000. Also considered/test drove the Civic, Protoge, and Focus. Rides were all fairly comparable, but Dodge was dealing quite a bit more than the others. I have just over 105,000 on it so far. Aside from scheduled routine maintenance, no repairs to speak of. I drive around 36,000 miles annually, and can count on it to come in at anywhere from 33-36 on the highway depending on speed. This is my second Neon (had a 95), and 4th Chrysler that I have bought new since 90. All have been good serviceable vehicles.

  • Love My Neon - 2000 Dodge Neon

    I have had my Neon over 4 years and have only had to replace the brakes. The car is extremely reliable and has been across the country several times. I have to say that my Neon looks as good as it did when it came off the showroom floor -- inside and out. That comes from quality construction and careful care. I live in Texas -- 100+ summers -- and the a/c usually needs to be turned down because it works so well. Excellent car overall!
