Well, the Neon also has these issues: unstable RPM’s at idle, Reverse is going out, Interior is all broken/ripped, no A/C (i am in Texas), bad smell comes from the burning oil into the car, horrid paint chipping/rust on the car, and it is only 800 dollars KBB. I am not the owner either, it is my Grandpa’s and in two years after i leave junior college for a 4-yr college, i cannot bring it with me, so i have two years to get a new car.
