  Ugly But Functional - 2003 Pontiac Aztek
  By Steve - April 14 - 2:53 am

  Surprisingly impressed! First American car in 30 years, and its really nice! No complaints, except for having great difficulty putting gas into it. Have had diagnosis by 3 certified mechanics, replaced fuel vapor canister, fuel evap solenoid and STILL have to put gas in at about 5 cents a spurt because the nozzle keeps kicking out. Its smooth, quiet, powerful and has a number of features I was going to invent one of these days. I recommend a buy, if youre more concerned about function than appearance.

  I Love My Ride! - 2004 Pontiac Aztek
  By CHERI - April 8 - 7:20 pm

  I wasnt sure I wanted to buy such a strange looking car, but gave it a trial run. Boy! Was I surprised. The Aztec drives and rides like a dream: roomy and comfortable, turns on a dime, and carries just about anything for regular daily use. My husband has arthritis of the spine, so he is really impressed with the heated seats. And we love the idea of dual temperature controls. The tent and air mattress (with an air valve built in one of the cubbies) were pleasant surprises, as we are avid campers. I am so glad I didnt let the strange appearance turn me off, besides... Its beginning to grow on me.

  love my aztek - 2003 Pontiac Aztek
  By Barbara - April 5 - 8:23 pm

  Overall, this has been an exceptional SUV. I bought it when it had 35,000 miles and now it has 146,900 + miles! I have had a few problems, but who doesnt on an older car? Of course, I didnt buy it for its looks! People laugh at me, but now they think Im pretty smart.

  A POSITIVE REVIEW - 2005 Pontiac Aztek
  By cordle - March 21 - 10:00 am

  I purchased this automobile because it was the only one offered in the price range that I could afford. After owning and driving this auto for the past year, I am so glad that it was the one I bought. I have driven it on the highway and in town and could not be more comfortable now feel more safe than in the Aztec. It is not the most beautiful design but everyone knows where I am in this town! I needed an auto that was easy to get in and out of and this has been ideal. I hope that more people will look for quality and not beauty and try this auto.

  By BLOSSOM - March 12 - 10:00 am

  We rented one from AVIS,back in October 2002,to go from New Orleans to Houston (which was ~ 5 1/2 hours.).My husband,was a hater,until he saw how much we spent on gas.The incredible price we paid was a total of $14.50.WOW! Then,he turned from being a hater to lover of this suv.We went to this dealership "Brian Harris Autoworld in Slidell,La.".They let us test drive a 2003 Aztek,this weekend.It was an incredible ride,hit a bump you dont really notice, smoooooth turns,it was very spacious,great sound system,etc..... WARNING! Be careful not to fall asleep behind the wheel,its that COMFORTABLE!

  95,000 miles in first 2 years - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By 2001 Aztek Owner - March 4 - 10:03 pm

  This car has been a pleasure to drive. I love the HUD, the rear stereo controls. The vehicle is very responsive and has pretty good zip. Had 2 irritating problems in first year. A/C compressor went out and due to the miles I was putting on at the time my warranty was out and Pontiac refused to take care of the problem. Also, some kind of sensor for the fuel pump went out and again Pontiac would not help. This is a great handling SUV/SRV and it is a shame it has not taken off. If not for the extremely poor resale value I would consider buying another.

  Interesting thing, this Aztek - 2005 Pontiac Aztek
  By Bri - February 28 - 11:33 am

  A surprisingly practical car. Good cargo capability (but not minivan good), good gas mileage (much like a minivans), respectable performance (a lot like a minivan). But, my wife and I werent ready for the minivan niche. Certainly a love/hate appearance, but we have the "Rally" edition, which I think gives a more pleasing flavor to the underlying Aztek weirdness. A recent (May 2005) recall on the ignition system is a must-fix; we just started experiencing the effects (kind of ironic, in a way), which include vehicle stalling. In-laws have a Chevy Equinox, which I like better. However, the Aztek might have the price advantage given its impending discontinuation and overall poor sales.

  good value - 2005 Pontiac Aztek
  By clint - February 24 - 1:20 pm

  We hadnt even considered the Aztek when shopping for a new car. Figured that an economy car was the only thing in our budget. Went looking at the Pontiac Vibe and saw the Aztek in the showroom. With the GM redtag clearance and other discounts, we got our 2005 FWD Aztek out the door for under $15000. Excellent value, a lot of features, outstanding interior room. The only unknown is how it will hold up over the years. Right now Im quite happy with it. The exterior appearance takes a bit getting used to. If you can get over the outward appearance, the Aztek is quite a good deal. Its not a Vette, so I dont buy the complaints about power-its power and acceleration are just fine.
