1998 Dodge Neon R/T review from North America
"Nice car outside, but wouldn't want to be in a serious accident in it!"
General comments?
The car is nice, especially the R/T version.
For a small car it has room, but for design inside it is funky, my knees was always against the dash, and oh, I was rear-ended by a state vehicle, my kness hit the dash and hurt for three weeks straight. That's been five years ago, I think I got arthritis cause of it. An unsafe car it is!
Tires were expensive cause it was an R/T version, I don't know why, the car wouldn't go past seventy five on a hill on the turnpike.
I think I'd rather have an Escort GT, it has more power and it zips down the road with bigger and less expensive tires.
