  review of our Pontiac Sunfire - 2001 Pontiac Sunfire
  By wworld - December 8 - 10:00 am

  This car is too small for me to get in and out of comfortably. It is a good looking little car, but that is the problem, it is too little for me and I am only 58". My wife and I are always bumping each others elbows, fighting for our space. We are wanting someone to take over payments on it.

  By Sid - January 31 - 10:26 am

  Bought this car at 186k miles and the car still runs perfect, so far. Seems very reliable, pretty good on gas and fast. Overall not bad at all.

  The sunfire does great on the road.Its fuel is good on highways, but city needs a bit improving.Its fun to drive and very roomy.The sound system is okie, the front small speakers make it a bit worse then a Dodge Neon but still good.

  Good Little Car - 2001 Pontiac Sunfire
  By GirlieTegRacer - December 14 - 2:00 am

  So far I am pretty happy with this car. The fuel economy seems to be pretty good since it has a large 4 cylinder engine. It is comfortable and easy to drive and it is a little fun too.

  great car - 2001 Pontiac Sunfire
  By Tom - August 5 - 10:20 pm

  I have owned this car for 5 years. I bought it used with 35,000 miles and now has 225,000 on it. Only problem was the fuel pump went out at 150,000. If all cars were this reliable then auto makers would go out of business. Awesome car. The 2.4 L is very peppy and 32 mpg. What more could I ask for? Did I mention this car is an automatic?

  GREAT Car! - 2001 Pontiac Sunfire
  By Miranda - July 25 - 3:10 am

  Great car. Never ever had a problem with it. Could leave it outside unplugged at -40 and it would still start in the morning. Only replaced wear and tear parts. INCREDIBLY safe car. Was T-Boned by a semi truck and lived let alone walked out of the hospital with nothing but bruises. Great crumple zones. SAFE and RELIABLE car. Worth every penny I ever spent on it!

  dependable no frills little car - 2001 Pontiac Sunfire
  By JJ - April 18 - 3:56 am

  I bought this car used w/ 41000 mi.about 6 mo. ago and have been pleasantlysuprised with it. While not the most robust on the road, it is efficient w/my 34 mpg (and given my daily commute of 90 miles round trip-its vital!). I havent had any problems with it other than needing brakes and a new battery. Always starts right up and have not had any other problems with it. With the 2.2L engine in mine, its not the most powerful force on the road but it does its job. If youre looking for something to get you back and forth cheaply, this may foot the bill for ya.
