Just the tire tread wearing out quicker than I thought.

So far I'm in love with this car. I've owned a '96 Dodge Neon before this car and it's like a whole new world. Much more comfortable and luxurious (for an economy car). I just wish it were quicker sometimes, but that's just because I got the Automatic transmission.

Also, the mileage on this car was a great surprise. While it's rated for 36 highway miles per gallon, I'm getting 40 mpg at 70 miles per hour with a K&N replacement air filter.

And on another note, this car responds very well to being lowered on some stiffer springs. I had mine lowered for a while and I swear it felt like it was on tracks.

Heaven help you if you go to a Drive-In and start the engine. There is no way to turn the daytime running lights off .. though the manual says they do turn off (it wrong, and the dealer has no fix for it).

General Comments:

This is my third Neon (SX 2.0 in Canada). The mileage is outstanding (32MPG in city). Body tight, and value high.

Very good handling, 4 speed automatic makes it a much quicker car.

Outstanding radio-CD player; 6 speakers.

I really enjoy the Dodge styling since 2003. Fog lamps are super cool.. standard in Canada as they function as the daytime running lights as well.

Designed to economy. Manual says engine tuned for 87 or lower octane, spark plugs are intentionally the inexpensive kind, etc.

Last year of a legend.

Faults:

Before I drove it off the lot, I had to make an appointment to get the driver side rear window seal replaced.

Occasionally I will kill it (as it is manual) and I can't get it to restart, usually in busy intersections.

The Single Disk player shuts off occasionally.

Other than that nothing major has gone wrong, I will keep you posted, though!

General Comments:

I enjoy the sporty feel as my car is the Electric blue with the spoiler.

The seats are very comfortable in the front, a little stiff in the back.

Honestly, it's a slight downgrade from the 2004 Ford Focus.

Love the 4 doors.

It doesn't have as much get-up as I expected. But with the SOHC it could use an upgrade to the DOHC which would add some horsepower.

It would be nice if I could drive like a maniac and still get good gas mileage.

Love the fact that they highly suggest 87 octane gas, instead of the expensive stuff. As gas prices are increasing steadily.

Tight and smooth steering is a plus. Gearing is still a little rough.

Already feel like there are some problems that are about to happen. Good thing I have a good warranty.

Can't wait to get the windows tinted and add a little sport to the Neon.

Maybe down the road get it ready for stock racing. Just kidding.
