This Year's Model Updates:

The Sunfire remains largely unchanged for 2004. Dual exhaust outlets are no longer available as a package option, but a CD/MP3 player with RDS and equalizer now comes with the Sun and Sound package.

Pros:
  • Low price, torquey four-cylinder engine, optional satellite radio and OnStar.
Cons:
  • Ancient design inside and out, cheap interior materials, poor build quality, low resale value, poor side-impact and front-offset crash test results.

  • Yellow 04 Sunfire - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    I bought my yellow Sunfire used. It had 23,000 miles on it. I now have 35,000 on it and love it. Traveling back and forth to college everyday, the car is very reliable. It goes great in the snow and even has a decent stereo system that sounds great with the windows down and the sunroof open. The only problem is that I had to put tires on a little over a year after the dealer put new ones on in the trade in. Occassionally has a rough start up in cold weather but overall the car was a great choice for my first car. My car also features a factory installed stripe package covering both doors that captures the attention of people along with the bright yellow color.

    Only owned this vehicle for a cople of months, but enjoying it tremendously. I have owned almost every model of Pontiac over the years, and this one rate high. For what I paid (under 12K$), this is more car than any other brand out there. Performance and driveability are exceptonal for this class. I dont know how EPA mileage ratings can be so low-I routinely get 7.6L/100 KM in the city and have never used more than 8.8L/100. Highway drops to 6.6L/100KM or better. There is no comparable value on the market.

  • Excellent Car - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    Perfect car for a college student. Excellent gas mileage in the city (32+mpg) and more than enough power 0- 60Mph in 7.2 seconds (5 speed manual). Although the interior room is minimal (not good for people over 6 ft) the car is good enough for me (511). I have put 26,000 miles on the car in less than 6 months and have had NO problems. If you take care of this car it will last you forever. Several mechanics have told me I could easily hit 400,000 miles. This car out ranks any import in speed, reliability, and **cost of ownership.**

    Its a fun sporty car. Its a coupe, but the interior is extremely comfortable, and the backseat IS big enough to fit 3 people instead of only 2. Its comfortable, cute, and fun.

    It has a lot of spunk, is realiable, and love the change to the front end

  • 2004 Sunfire is understated for Value - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire

    A very good car for the money. I own a Jag/2003, Honda Civic EX 2002/ Transam 2000/ Suburban 1999 and of course a 2004 Sunfire. I believe Hondas and Toyota are overrated for the cost it takes to own them. Between the honda and sufire/ sunfire for price quality. I has options like traction control/ side air bags that the Honda Civic doesnt even offer. The seats are softer than Mercedes or Jaguar. It is cheap on the interior, but everything you need is there. A $18,000 Sunfire with $4000 rebate and $3500 GM bucks ends up costing $9677 with taxes and tags. Try that with a Honda! Considering it is $6500 cheaper than a Honda or Toyota.

    A very good car for the money. I believe Hondas and Toyota are overrated for the cost it takes to own them. Between the honda and sufire, I would suggest Sunfire for price & quality.It has everything basic you need in a car.
