Pontiac Sunfire OWNER RATINGS & REVIEWS
Cascades, Virginia
A retro classic.
The vehicle has nice aesthetic that throws back to a retro age without being a model that is too old our outdated. Overall the vehicle has great MPG especially for the age and even though it had a lot of miles on it, it was still fairly reliable for pretty hefty distances. The interior definitely seems a little old, lacking a lot of the technological features of the modern vehicles but it still sufficed.

Great car, Cheap price!
I'm writing about my 1999 Pontiac Sunfire.
I purchased the car when it first came out and it has met and exceeded my expectations.
It's an amazing daily driver that is limited on space but great on gas.
I would strongly recommend this vehicle to any one that is tired of getting their pockets hit when they go to the gas pump.
It has a v4 engine and that limits it's performance if you want a car that can get up and go, this isn't for you.
The car would be great for a starting driver as you can find these cars now for dirt cheap and the parts are very easy to obtain.
It has a very sleek design that makes it appealing to view and has some pretty cool features to go with that.

Sleek and Economical
My 2000 Pontiac Sunfire has grey exterior. When I originally thought of this type of vehicle, I thought it would be a car more for a woman. But here I am now driving it and loving it. I purchased it used a few years ago, mainly due to it being a 4 cylinder vehicle and I wanted something that got better gas mileage than I was used to (normally had v6/v8 trucks or SUVs). I now get approximately 33% better gas mileage so I never miss my truck/suv when at the pumps!
The one thing I was worried about when downsizing to a smaller vehicle such as this, was hauling and moving items. Well, I bought a curt trailer hitch online and installed it to the frame. Now I am able to pull small utility trailers without issues (yes even with the 4cyl engine). I also am able to put 8 ft sections of 2x4s and carsiding through the trunk and up through the front seat. Initially I didn't think that would be possible, but with the back seats pulled down they fit no problem. Way roomier than I would have thought.
Mine has a cloth interior. I am always comfortable when driving, and enjoy driving it as well.
I do have an issue with the Tachometer / Speedometer / Fuel gauge. It seems to just jump around to wherever it wants, I'm guessing some sort of electrical issue.... But the car is 14 years old and I'm not sure when it started to malfunction, but I live with it.
It still has good acceleration when I'm getting onto the highway. Starting and stopping is good and has a better turning radius than the trucks I'm used to.
I feel safe when driving and always in control as well.
Overall, I am satisfied with this vehicle, and would recommend it to anyone on a lower used car budget as well.
