2001 Plymouth Neon Reviews, Pricing & Specs





























































What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2001 Plymouth Neon are quite pleased with their cars, appreciating the ample space, reliability, and fuel economy. Many drivers mentioned that it's easy to maintain and has decent performance, especially in cornering. However, issues like minor repairs and a few build quality concerns, such as water leaking into the trunk, were noted. Despite these drawbacks, most reviewers enjoyed driving the Neon and found it a comfortable option."
It is a 4-cylinder-2.0 liter engine. It is cute, great on gas, and just awesome to drive! I would never be afraid to drive it anywhere. It is very reliable and a great car.
May 8, 2008Performance: the car runs great, just after a while it starts to nickel and dime you to death. And there is a defect in the 2001 models: the back tire has a little metal piece in it that fell off and the mechanic said it was the reverse break catch or something (?) Build quality: It's built good, but the trunk leaks water into the back seat floorboard when it rains if you don't fasten the spare tire just right. Appearance: It's a beautiful car. I just don't care for silver that much. It looks beautiful in metallic blue. Cost of ownership: it gets great gas mileage as long as you keep it tuned up. We get about 28 mpg. And as long as you get an oil change every 4000 miles or so it stays good. Fun Factor: it's comfortable to sit in and drive long distances, but it takes a while to go from 0 to 60 (not what i look for in a car, but some people want a fast car) I would recommend this to someone who wants a reliable car to take them places on the highway.
January 17, 2009It's been a very reliable car. I've had to replace basic stuff like the battery, and it's due for some new brakes; but no major repairs. I love this car and even though it's not my dream car I still enjoy it. The performance is pretty good, it's only got 4 clnd. but it has some kick(albeit small). Where it really shines though is around corners, the suspention is great.

May 3, 2008This car has ample space for four people and is easy to maintain. We pay almost nothing for insurance and there are many things I can fit into the Neon, where I simply can not into my other vehicles. Overall I'm very pleased with the Neon!
