Answer #1

I’ve got a friend driving a neon. I’ve driven it a few times myself (I’m usually the designated sober driver!) and I can say that while yes, they are good on gas, the handling isn’t too hot. Steering is pretty bad; I can’t believe they actually call it power steering. It doesn’t accelerate too quickly, and if you’re a stickler for the sound, it sounds AWFUL. I mean, when you floor it, it sounds like a toy car. Pathetic. A decent car for the price, but there are better out there.

Answer #2

I think that neons would be good on gas, I seem to recall they had a problem with the engines blowing in them.

if it were me- I would have a competent mechanic look it over before buying it.

if the engine is mechanically alright, and a mechanic says it looks good- buy it. I had an aquaintance who swore by the neon, and mopars in general- he drove his little neon for years until the engine finally blew out.
