1998 Plymouth Neon Highline Coupe review from North America
"Much power, but seriously flawed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I replaced the head gasket at 85000 miles at a cost of over eight hundred dollars.
The trunk leaked horribly.
The windows never sealed correctly, which made the interior sound louder than a freight train.
When I accelerated around a sharp corner, the suspension sounded as though it might give way to the asphalt surrounding me.
General comments?
This car had a lot of power, but the repair costs were not worth it.
