  • Mechanical Dream - 1995 Dodge Neon
    By -

    I bought this car as I am a college student who needed cheap, reliable transportation, but this car is perfect for whatever you want to do. Basically, as long as you take good care of the Neon, and dont drive it too hard, it will last many many miles. The key is to take care of it -- it is a mechanical dream to work on.

    Great value overall. I paid 12,500 for this vehicle new and has 200,000 miles to date and is still running strong. I have had a few minor problems, but nothing that is not considered to be normal wear: Cruise control actuator, fuel gauge sending unit, timing belt tensioner, shifter cable ends (5-spd).

  • Wonderful car - 1995 Dodge Neon

    My 1995 dodge neon was my first car I purchased. Its really reliable and takes me everywhere!!

  • Glad I got rid of it - 1995 Dodge Neon
    By -

    when we got the car it ran for a while, then the transmission went sour, then the engine went sour, so we got rid of it. the thing came, however, came with an awesome stock sound system.

  • Its a Lemon! - 1995 Dodge Neon
    By -

    I replaced close to about absolutely everything on this vehicle except the engine. Auto Transmission only lasts 60K miles! AC and Head Gasket Last about 36K miles. Alternator belt, cables/wires/starter last about 4 years. This car is a complete lemon, and almost all Neons are like this. Neons were designed to break-down after the 3 year warranty.

  • Torn! - 1995 Dodge Neon
    By -

    Im torn. Its sooo cute and fun to drive, great mileage, and you wouldnt believe the amount of stuff Ive packed into this car. BUT...while it never actually broke down on me, its had to have a ton of work - tranny, head gasket, HO2 sensor, electrical, shocks, rust on edges of hood and trunk, and major paint flaking.

  • Best (worst) of both worlds - 1995 Dodge Neon
    By -

    Bought car new for my wife. Head gasket went at 30k just before warranty. At 65k again! Wanted me to pay for labor (maybe $300 on $600 bill) but I whined and they said Chrysler picked it up. At 100k it went again and Im pretty sure we split the cost with the dealer.

  • No Joke, this car is a keeper - 1995 Dodge Neon
    By -

    We bought this car new with no frills, no AC, PW or PS. It has over 226,000 miles on it now and though it did blow a head gasket at about 170,000 miles, it has been practically a free car when you consider what most cars cost. We have maintained it regularly. Great Car, Great mileage...I recently got 41 MPG on a trip, though 34 MPG is typical, Great get up and go...even now. If you maintain these vehicles, I promise you will not be disappointed by anything.

  • Terrific Ride - 1995 Dodge Neon
    By -

    I absolutely love my Neon! I bought the car because I needed a point A to point B kind of car originally, but now I cant think of any other car I would want. Ive been to San Diego to Las Vegas and everywhere in between and it hasnt failed me once yet. It handles nicely and it saves me a bundle on gas... (if I dont lead foot it everywhere). The Neon is a terrific first car for anyone who likes a neat looking ride and likes to travel.

  • Doesnt owe me a dime - 1995 Dodge Neon
    By -

    I bought this car in 97 with 89,000 miles on it. It now has over 190,000 miles on it. Now,the headliner is falling paint is chipping speedometer is intermittent head gasket was replaced and, the block has a hairline crack. So what! Over the past 5 years this car has been a blast to drive. In the right hands, with a 5 speed, this car will embarrasse Hondas, Toyotas, and a few V6s. I now do all the work myself and Im amazed at how much you can do for cheap. The car is on its second college student. It was a godsend when we bought and it doesnt owe us a dime. Its one of those special family cars you here about.
