1995 Plymouth Neon Sport Coupe review from North America
"One Mean 4 Cylinder"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My head gasket blew at 75,000 kilometers. Had the complete head replaced. It was expected because early model neons were known for this.
Had three thousand dollars worth of work put into body and underneath of car. This is not because of car being faulty, this is because I had an accident with the car.
General comments?
Even with all the work that was put in to the car the motor is still as strong as ever. Even with it at 200,000 kilometers it still runs smoothly.
The acceleration is extremely fast and it handles excellently, even on snowy and wet conditions.
The interior leaves something to be desired as sitting in the seat for a long period of time can become very uncomfortable.
