Selling my Neon now that I don't have a use for it any more. I bought it to go rallyxing in June of 2013 from a local auction when they were doing goodwill donation cars. It still has the sticker on the window as an added bonus 
I ended up daily driving it for a few years. Now I've got a long term car and don't have a need to keep the Neon.
A few pics:
Since that outing I've gone through the car and fixed most of the issues. Below are the good/bad lists.
Good:
Runs and drives great
Timing belt and water pump in the last 20,000 miles
No headgasket issues
Sealed sunroof so no leaks
It comes with 2 sets of wheels, the stockers with snow tires for rallyx and some aftermarket 16" with BFG tires.
Cruise control and AC work well
Has a radio
Power window (read the bad list)
Power locks
All the stock parts are still there if you want to revert to stock
Mods:
Iceman CAI
Shorty 4-1 header with an apparent high flow cat
Fresh cat back factory exhaust
KYB GR2 shocks with 2nd gen lowering springs
AF/X chip (I think it's the race version, but not sure)
booger shift bushings
Schroth 4 point Harness
Window welded motor mounts
Probably a few things I'm forgetting
Bad:
It's a Neon
It has a small oil leak on the back of the engine at a sensor. Not enough to worry about, but it'll leave a drip here and there.
The rear motor mount isn't tight. It doesn't bother me.
The headlights suck
The passenger window lost a bushing so the window doesn't like rolling down. I tried messing with it, but it was....not successful.
I took it rallyxing with some friends after fixing all the issues and had a blast. Here are some pictures from that event:
I wouldn't hesitate to jump in it and drive long distances. I've put 20k miles on it driving around the SE for work and it's never left me stranded. I just don't have a need for a 5th car and I've only rallyx'd it twice in 2.5 years. I've got about $2,750 in the car total. I'd like to see it go to someone who'll continue to rallyx it so I'm listing it on car sites first.
Asking $2,000. Pretty firm on price. It's a good car with a lot of nice little things for relatively cheap
