This Year's Model Updates:

Redesigned front and rear fascias for a sportier appearance, a new five-speed manual transmission and the availability of the premium Monsoon audio system lead Sunfire's upgrade list for 2000. There are also restyled rocker-panel moldings, new wheels and exterior colors, as well as a revised instrument panel cluster, floor console and upholstery.

Pros:
  • Racy styling, comfy interior, rev-happy twin-cam engine, good value.
Cons:
  • Option list can overpower sale price, body roll apparent during hard cornering.

  • Great Car! - 2000 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    My grandmother gave me this car back in 2007 with only 47,000 miles on it, and with this being my first car I really didnt know what to think of it. After having it for 3 years it really grew on me, and it was fun to drive every day. I think the interior is a bit cheap feeling and the seats arent that comfortable, but it looks great. Not to mention that the exterior styling is BEAUTIFUL. Also Ive never had any problems with this car besides the normal maintenance (breaks, oil changes, etc.). Unfortunately it was recently totaled in an accident, however if they still made them I would buy another in a heartbeat!

    Very good car. Not bad for the price. Loved to drive it, love the look.

  • GT is well worth it! - 2000 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    I had a Teal 2000 Pontiac Sunfire GT Coupe and absolutily loved it! It was hands down one of the best cars ever made, especailly with the ever-so- sporty GT package! Sadly enough though, I was only able to hold onto the car for 10 days because on the 10th day I had it, I was ran off the road in the country by and old man and I skid accross the road into a ditch and flipped. Rest assure if your car does this, it will be totaled; mine was! But unbelievably, I got out with only a few minor scratches on my arm and a stiff neck, so this is also a VERY safe car. It saved my life!

  • Will it start?? - 2000 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    I have a 2000 Sunfire SE, and w/in the first year it had to have a new battery, and a new starter. In 2002 it had to have the computer reprogrammed due to engine lights coming on, and it had to have the whole steering assembly replaced, this all happened 2 weeks before the warranty was up. I do not trust this car and will never buy one again.

  • Love It - 2000 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    I love my car and I love everything about it. I have had it for over 8 years and have never had any mechanical problems at all. It is one of the most reliable vehicles Ive ever had. Even though it is a small car it handles better than a lot of 4 wheel drive trucks. I dont think I can say enough good things about it. I love the look of it and the interior. I would recommend this car to everyone.

  • Should have bought a Honda... - 2000 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    This car really isnt worth what little money it is worth anymore. A 2000 model year car that is worth under $6000 is worth under $6000 for a reason. The Sunfire is slow and unreliable umong many other downfalls. Last time I ever buy a domestic...

  • GT is worth the extra money! - 2000 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    I cant seem to understand why some individuals complain about Pontiac and the Sunfire in general. Sure, if you have the SE model, the performance wont be as high as a GT. Personally, I love the GT model. It rides great, its pretty smooth, and it has a great get- up-and-go from the minute the light turns green. No problems here!

  • A Great Little Car! - 2000 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    I love this little car! I did get the 2.4 Twin Cam 150 HP engine and the sun- roof and hi-powered stereo. I have had no problems and this is definatly an underrated vehicle in my opinion. It is alot of fun to drive and really runs well.
