Pros: gas mileage
Cons: mechanical failures, driving, comfort
The Bottom Line: An average, short-term car that might be good for a student beater, but not a good car for those that need it.
Anymore Questions ask Me

please do not take this the wrong way, they are throw away cars, they either have a head gasket issue, or they have a bad transmission, the other thing is they have a bad window leak, around the doors since there is no trim work. If you are looking for a small car, the best answer is to find a geo prim, same thing as a toyota carola, or a carola, or a civic, little more money, but they will last longer than a neon..

Pros: Really cheap, handles very well. Neons dominated several classes in racing when they first came out.
Cons: Not exactly very prestigious, interior is likely to develop a fair amount of rattles. Many of them have not been treated very well by previous owners. The early ones had head gasket problems, but they completely redesigned the gasket to fix this. If yours had a bad gasket, it's probably been upgraded by now.

Fairly decent vehicle. If everything visually checks out. You should be ok, check underneath for rust, on the brake and fuel lines. The major thing to ask about, is the timing belt. make sure depending on mileage, if its been replaced or not.
