  BadBrakes2 - 2001 Plymouth Neon
  By notmyneon - October 25 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car the middle of last year and had to replace the brakes already once, the repair shop couldnt believe that they had already worn out! Neither could I. They also squeal almost everytime you push on them from slowing dow, my rating on the brakes? .02!

  Plymouth Neon LX owner - 2001 Plymouth Neon
  By Brad Billeen - August 15 - 10:00 am

  This is my third Neon. The 1996 was the best one so far, but the 2001 is close behind. I have an automatic and wish I would have gotten a standard. The automatics are loud, but the car is still fun to drive. Take a Neon for a drive youll love it in the long run.

  Runs like a champ - 2000 Plymouth Neon
  By GVLakerGuy - July 23 - 10:00 am

  I bought my 2000 Neon used with 42,000 miles. Since then I have driven 12,000 miles and I have no complaints. Its sometimes sluggish off the line, and a little noisy on the freeway. It has great styling and an awesome factory sound system. I also like all the options including a sunroof and disc changer. No problems so far with regular maintainence. Only drawbacks are the lack of cruise control and the 3-speed transmission has no place in the 21st century.

  Great Car, Great Price - 2000 Plymouth Neon
  By Neon LX - May 3 - 10:00 am

  After driving this car for almost a year and a half now, I have nothing but praise for it. Its spunky, the handling is great, and the interior is quite comfortable. To top it off, the factory sound system is marvelous. Mechanically, the car has been excellent--no repairs have been needed. Overall, this is a very tight & solid car. I think anyone looking at smaller, more economical cars should do themselves a favor by checking out a Neon...

  By ecd2d - April 5 - 6:40 am

  I bought my Neon 4 years ago, for most of those years, I put 20,000+ miles plus per year, the car is now at 108,000, just had timing belt replaced, the car runs magically. Compared to my husbands Honda, the Neon is doing better.

  Great Car for Low Cost - 2000 Plymouth Neon
  By KTB - March 21 - 10:46 am

  Good-looking, comfortable car with great gas mileage. Almost steered clear of buying a Neon, not sure why, but thought they had a junky reputation until I researched the vehicle and found the 2000 year and beyond to have great consumer satisfaction. My daughter and I love this car for its price range. We have been very happy with ours.

  Best for the MONEY!! - 2000 Plymouth Neon
  By elite_iv - February 20 - 10:00 am

  Many people are of the opinion that Neons are junk, but I tell you I have had one for three years and have never had a problem with it. They revamped the Neon in 2000 to make a statement in both styling and performance. The car is solid handles well and is enjoyable to drive. If you are looking for a sporty little 4 door with a nice factory sound system this is the car for you.

  STILL a good car! - 2001 Plymouth Neon
  By ehbowen - May 19 - 5:40 am

  I purchased my 2001 Neon new in November 2000 and kept it for more than eight years. It was the stickshift LX model, and I added a Chrysler-brand cruise control. Other than routine maintenance, the only service it needed was when the engine computer went into an error state. The car was still driveable and I drove it to the dealership, which repaired it under the emissions warranty even though the car had over 60000 miles on it at the time. The only negative I have to say about the car is that its a little too low-slung; very easy to scrape the front end on sloped driveways. I sold the car to my 16-yr old niece last year, and she loves it-- its STILL a good car!

  GREAT first car! - 2000 Plymouth Neon
  By tinytike458 - October 14 - 11:36 am

  I bought this car as a college commuter, and to drive home to work. It had 55,000 miles when bought, and 104,000 miles after it was totalled. I had normal upkeep with this car, never cause a major problem. The driver side door lock wouldnt work from the outside, and no trunk release was annoying. It handled great in the snow belt of Lake Erie, and great on gas. The trunk space was great especially for a constanly moving college student. The stereo system had a great sound. The motor was quiet and it accelerated well. I would reconmend this car to anyone!
