My '96 now has 225k on it and still knocking down 40mpg. Had to put a radiator in it a couple weeks ago ($75 at NAPA). I put 100 miles a day on it.

 

My 1995 SOHC 95 5spd now has just over 200K! I put about 60miles a day on it - mostly city driving conditions, average about 34mpg. Engine was completely rebuilt at 157K.

 

My 98 SOHC Neon has 253,000 Miles on the car & original (never rebuilt) engine and the engine see's 7,000 Rpm everytime I drive it. I have a DOHC pcm in the car which allows me to hit 7,000 Rpm just for the record The car has made even people who hate Neon's respect it just for how hard I beat it and what it takes. These 2.0 SOHC really have to be starved of oil and be beaten from a cold start up to die. I've had 3 Neons and they're all unstoppable!.

 

My 2003 SXT has 197K

 

My '98 DOHC has 163,500 miles. Gas milage for the last 885 miles was a little over 36 MPG. Other than occasional adds of R134A and routine maintenance, it has been better than Honda or Toyota reliable!

Cylinder 4 is a bit low on compression (150 PSI vice 180 PSI in the others) and burns about a quart of oil every 1200-1500 miles. But I finished another season of autocrossing and (with an almost stock Neon) got up to 94 (out of 100) points at one event. And that was against Miatas, STIs, Shelby Cobras, the new BRZ/FRS.

My guess is, the person who replaced the head gasket at 95K miles didn't clean cylinder #4 correctly.

I can't complain with a $3600 dollar used car!

 

my 95 sohc atx 4 door has 121,000 runs great exept its slow to return to idle after I rev it

I got mine used and I've only driven it for about a month. It had over 128.9K on it. My 2005 Neon has a little bit over 129K on it now. I only drive to work, grocery store, and train station.

 

'03 with 104 654 miles

 

I bought an '01 SE about a month ago, 144,9xx. I'm at 145,8xx right now, and just getting started. Just did plugs and wires, I have an airfilter, but to my surprise, I opened it up and there was a K&N sitting there! Buttttt I'm going to put a CAI on it soon enough anyway.
