Overview & Reviews

After Sunfire coupes got a rear spoiler last year, this year it's the sedan's turn, only as an option. The top-line 2.4-liter twin-cam engine is revised to improve breathing, including new fuel injectors, injection rails, exhaust manifold and catalytic converter. Fern Green Metallic is added to the paint color chart.

• Racy styling, comfy interior, rev-happy twin-cam engine, good value.

• Option list can overpower sale price, body roll apparent during hard cornering.

  Been nothing but a headache - 1999 Pontiac Sunfire
  By georgiamarie - September 7 - 12:40 am

  I love the exterior design. I have had a lot of complements. What a cute car it is. Nice looking car. I agree. I am not happy at all with the problems I have had. It started 9 months after I bought the car. The sun roof leaked. It had to be completely replaced. The battery post broke. The radio system has been replaced twice because it kept shorting out. The brakes were worn out long before they should have. At the same time the front struts had to be replaced. All of this happened within the first three years. The problems have just kept coming. I expect these things to happen as the car gets older not when the car is brand new! I think this car was made on a Monday or Friday!

  Great Car for the Money - 1999 Pontiac Sunfire
  By rosey - November 24 - 10:00 am

  I purchased my car after crashing my brand new truck. It has proven to be a very reliable car. Aside from the usual wear and tear, this car has not given me any major problems like my other cars. Its great. Its affordable and nice sporty/family look to it. Nice. I would recommend it for a small family.

  A really nice ride - 1999 Pontiac Sunfire
  By JimmyJ - November 4 - 10:00 am

  Bought this car new. It is a great ride on the highway. It is also very comfortable, looks good and handles like a sports car. It never fails to get me to and from the job and has a nice sporty profile for pleasure use. It has logged over 84,000 miles requiring only regular scheduled maintenance. Good cargo space for a compact.

  Love the car. The dealership was the worst part. Extremely RUDE People working there including the owner. I havent have to replace anything other than the brakes the entire time that I have owned the car!

  Very Reliable Car - 1999 Pontiac Sunfire
  By TO Torn - September 30 - 2:00 am

  I purchased my Sunfire 3 years used, and have had no serious problems, even in our cold Canadian winters. I had the rotors turned because of a knob of rust that was making noise but not affecting performance. The interior is slightly under-par, but what can I expect for a cheap car. Also, I find that the ABS and the traction control really helps me keep a tight grip on our icy Canadian roads. If you can find it, I would suggest that you get the four gear, as opposed to the three gear - drives smoother at highway speeds. I would recommend this car for anyone looking for a good economical car.

  Fun Car - 1999 Pontiac Sunfire
  By kegger - September 22 - 10:00 am

  This has been a very reliable car. NO problems at all. Not one. It is fun to drive. The convertable top operates smoothly and has never leaked! When the top is up there is no wind noise. You feel as if you are in a hard top. It does have a stiff ride, but I like that in a small sporty car.

  Still getting in my Pontiac and DRIVING! - 1999 Pontiac Sunfire
  By CHollars - July 16 - 10:00 am

  Not a bad little car for the price. The Sunfires sporty look makes everyone think I have a V6 under the hood. Ive driven it on long road trips and short trips and its just a fun car to drive. I can haul more luggage than my boyfriend in his Mustang, and 9 out of 10 times we go somewhere we take my SUNFIRE. So far, I have few complaints. For someone who has always driven a car from the compact market, it comes in at the top of the pack. As long as this car stays on the road and out of the shop, Ill be pleased to call it mine for a long time!
