2002 Dodge Neon

Pros: Great performance, excellent handling, a fun car to drive, a true modern "sleeper"

Cons: slightly lower performance than the first-generation models, due to the additional weight

The Bottom Line: For a fun, economical car, you can't go wrong, i liked the first one so much, i bought another one

Review: What can i say, i liked the Neon so much, i bought another ;) my first Neon, a '98 Highline, gave me 120,000 miles of fun and spirited driving, and the only problem i ever had with it was the dreaded "headgasket issue", then again, headgasket failures ...

Pros: Sporty little car that comes nicely loaded

Cons: Small gas tank requires frequent fill-ups

The Bottom Line: Recommended for those wanting a reliable, sporty economy car that is fun to drive.

Review: DEALERSHIP EXPERIENCE AND PRICE:
I purchased my black 2002 Dodge Neon in August 2002 from the New Roc City Dodge Dealership in New Rochelle, NY. I first checked prices at other Dodge dealerships including Yonkers Avenue Dodge (awful sales staff)...

Pros: Great looks, power, quality, amazing price and NOT a Honda!

Cons: I haven't found any yet!

The Bottom Line: Great looks, dealer support, 7 year/70000 mile warranty, great stereo sound, silky engine, 30 mpg, side airbags. THIS is a best buy ...and doesn't look like the boring competition!

Review: I shopped Honda (overpriced), Toyota (tall Corolla's are NOT style), Ford Focus (Close second but Dodge had the best seats and safety and a best ride). Saw the car at 6 PM on a Friday at a CarMax dealer and by 7 PM I drove home. The car drove...

Pros: Stylish, quick, not a Honda

Cons: Not a Honda

The Bottom Line: Great little car that isn't a Honda.

Review: The vehicle I am reviewing is a 2002 Flame Red base model Neon with the 135hp 2.0 liter engine and manual transmission. Price, as tested: 10,500.00 out the door.

It may be only a base model, and it may not be that fast, but it's red and it's...

Pros: reliable, fun to drive, peppy, easy on the wallet at the pump. Good visability

Cons: The older I get the harder it is to get out of,

The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a good american made gas efficient car try one. I did and I loved it.

Review: I reluctantly purchased my 2002 Dodge Neon SXT new off the lot in the summer of 2002. Having been spoiled by the comfort of a full size automobile I didn't relish the idea of driving around for the next few years in a car that wasn't half my previous ...

Pros: comfortable seats, roomy interior, peppy engine, nice style job

Cons: impossible to find w/ABS

The Bottom Line: Great value, especially as a used car to avoid big early depreciation!

Review: The 2002 Dodge Neon is arguably a better buy used than new, as it has terrible resale value, par ...

Pros: Interior room, easy to read gauges,fold down read seat

Cons: Little Gas Tank means Frequent fill ups, Short Power Train warranty.

The Bottom Line: If you do get a Neon, I would recommend a SXT, I now regret not getting the SXT model.

Review: I purchased this car Used with 30k Miles, 4 months later with 36100 miles, its still running great, and remarkably I havent had any problems with it (Knock on wood), This car has great acceleration, from a stop, for a little 4 cylinder engine. Also for a...

Pros: Peppy, great gas mileage, cold AC, roomy interior, huge trunk.

Cons: the name neon really needs to be changed

The Bottom Line: Affordable, dependable, if you can get past the name, it is a great car.

Review: Well to make a long story short, I was screwed out of a Jeep rubicon and had to purchase a NEON. I had only owned jeeps, so I wasn't thrilled. However, I have been pleasantly surprised with my new car. See pros above. Now I don't like the name much,...

Pros: Looks great. Handling. Interior room for its class

Cons: Mileage seems not be upto par

The Bottom Line: Great car overall.

Review: Have had the car a little over 2 weeks now. So far loving it. Drives well, and seats 3 in the back very comfortably. Has 2 inches more hip room in the back than most cars in its class. The only problem I am forseeing is the poor gas mileage. For...

Pros: Price, Performance models added to the line-up, Standard equipment.

Cons: Confusing packages, price can get steep with options.

The Bottom Line: Adequate comfort, good performance, and a good warranty gives this car my recommendation.

Review: Despite the 1994-1998 models being somewhat unrefined and in some cases unreliable, the Dodge Neon has always been a bargain basement priced automobile that offered good performance, relatively good comfort at a very good price. The 2002 models...
