"I love my Neon - but I don't think I can consider it a long-term transportation investment"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Replaced front brakes at 50,000 miles.

A/C emitting foul sour odor 60,000 miles.

Driver's side door sensor malfunctions 71,000 miles.

Replaced fuel pump at 72,000 miles.

General comments?

My Neon has the G Option package and came with many little perks that are/were hard to find in a very inexpensive vehicle - alloy wheels, CD, A/C, power doors/windows, and ABS brakes.

This is the same experience I've had with my 2000 Neon ES w/G-Option package. I bought mine in 2001 with 29K miles. I've experienced exactly the same problems at virtually the same mileage points. I'm still get the sour A/C smell periodically. I'm at 81,000 miles now.

Overall, I give this car a good rating. I think you get what you pay for here - a good little car with comfortable features for a low price.
