GF looking at neon. ?'s
Gilfriend is looking at getting a neon. 04 or 05. Wants an SXT, and a sunroof. Other than that open to anything.
How is reliability of these cars. What should i look for. Any service or anything i should do when i we get it. Anything to look out for basicallly. problem area's, neglected area's, etc.
Thanks for the help.

I would say they're usually okay. Pretty reliable if you don't start modding them or beating on them hard. If she gets an ATX, at the very minimum install a transmission cooler and change the air filter.
Other than that, I would say they're decent. Ask graphite, he's owned like 4

I did a lot of research before I bought my car. I looked into consumer reports, reliability reports and car history reports on every single car I considered buying. Trust me, there were a lot! It gave me a headache actually cuz none really met my standards. Neons showed the best reliability and had a great price tag with low miles on average.

Just check around for some prices. Neons don't hold anything on value. I was looking at a price that I could sell my Neon ES for and I was disappointed at the prices they go for. Drive it around and make sure the tranny is good.

They have average saftey ratings...nothing to be impressed about, but they arent death traps either.
