    stay away from automatic 2000 models as it is a three speed. 2001 have three
    speed with elec overdrive.
    my opinion is go with a 01 as they seem to have gotten the kinks out of when
    they did 2nd gen styling changeover. try autotrader.ca

    What? AFAIK the 2000 and 2001 have the same transmission: 3 speed + lockup
    torque converter. In 2002 they went to the 4 speed transmission. Fuel
    mileage barely changed.
    Don't know how many kinks there were, but 2000 worked out the kinks of the
    gen1 Neons. Either way I've been happy with my 2000 Neon. Minor issues here
    and there, but nothing like the problems I had with my '96.

    As for the OP:

    Have the car brought to a third party shop to have it examined for any
    potential problems.

    The price seems about par for a Neon in that condition. If the car is well
    maintained, it should probably be able to see 300,000 km.
