beaters what options do us mopar lovers have?

I bought a 2000 chrysler neon...no comparison to the older neons that are prone to head gasket failure, and its very quite to drive in compared to older first generation ones. works very well so I decided to store it for the winter, so I bought another 2002 neon and it works really well bought are automatic
same engine, different headgasket, buy one with a recently blown one for cheap, spend the $60 on the gaskets and fix it in an afternoon. you can get a fun and MPG friendly car for potentally $300 or so. I do have to say a 2000-newer neon is alot more comfortable and quiet but its also 400 pounds heavier and really wouldnt mind having one if I had the money and space but Im young and dumb and would choose a 1gn just from a fun/performance standpoint:toothy10:
