Detailed Review:
I have bought a Neon Highline 4-door in February after looking at Saturn's and Toyota's offerings. Major criteria in the search were high gasoline efficiency and comfortable ride. My commute is fairly long and I do lots of highway driving. I found that long-legged people in a Saturn four-door and a Toyota Corolla have trouble with the central radio and A/C console sticking out too far and a lack of side seat bottom support.
I now have 12000+ miles on the odometer after 6 months and have absolutely no trouble. None. Gas mileage averages between 38 and 40 mpg, just as the sticker said. I enjoy the great stereo system (6 speaker), CD player, and the good ventilation system with COLD air.
Plus, I got a great deal on it!
