Overview & Reviews

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.

• Low price, torquey four-cylinder engine, optional satellite radio and OnStar.

• Ancient design inside and out, cheap interior materials, poor build quality, low resale value, poor side-impact and front-offset crash test results.

  sunfire - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
  By mrsjspicer - January 7 - 2:00 am

  I really like this car.When we bought it they had it specially customed. It has decals all along the sides, a body kit, ground effects, and custom rims. I love the lighting in it, especally the lights under the rear view mirror, I love how it looks sporty but is not considered a sports car under insurance.

  Fun and Pretty, But Impractical - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
  By Heather - December 24 - 9:26 am

  This is my first car with a loan. Despite the fact that I did about everything wrong when buying from a dealership, this car has turned out to be a decent deal. My only regret is that I bought it because it was pretty rather than researching it before I signed on the dotted line.

  Want it back - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
  By 67carjunkie - December 13 - 4:40 pm

  I loved my car until I got hit on the back right side. Edmunds said that it has poor side crash test mine survived the crash much better then the 08 civic. Was not the fastest car but it was decent just couldnt get me out of the crash. Edmunds also said not that fast but I beat a brand new mazda 6 with a 04 sunfire that had 4 cylinders.

  Great car for the price - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
  By sm214 - November 15 - 10:00 am

  Im not sure why Jon Leibowitz and fieroguy had so many problems with the car. I have a 96 sunfire with 200,000 miles and it hasnt had any bad problems yet. For the price, they are durable cars. the 2.2L ecotech is nice too. If you know how to use good driving techniques and maintenance then the car will last a long time.

  Excellent - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
  By michael barker - November 15 - 10:00 am

  I could not ask for a better car for what i paid. The power of this car is unbeatiable for a 4 banger. I motify cars for a living and my sunfire is totally pimped out now with extras includeing chrome rims, masterflow exhaust, nos, and dozens of other extras. This car is just plainly an excellent car to work with and there is no other way of saying it in words. When i drive down the road even when it was a complete stock car i still turned heads to see peole looking a awwwwwing.

  Best Bang for the Buck - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
  By Slats - November 10 - 10:00 am

  I am now purchasing my 3rd Sunfire GT. This is a testiment to the uncanny reliability I have experienced over the years with these inexpensive cars and large number of features for the buck. Simply put, no car for the dollar offers what Sunfire does. I owned a 97 GT, 01 GT and now just purchased an 05 GT. Besides regular maintenance (Oil, brakes and odd recall for software updates), I have had operational failure in these cars. I owned a 95 Honda Prelude that almost bankrupt me in repair bills, then I took a chance on the Sunfire and still cant find a reason leave. Sorry Corolla, Civic and Focus; Youre too expensive and lack Zest!

  Sunfire great but flaws - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
  By ed - September 9 - 10:43 am

  This is my first car. Runs great cant complain. I had an accident with it. Another person hit me. On the left hand panel. It was like a tank. Nothing broken but the exterior. Lately I was going down the highway and the speedometer went crazy. It looked like I was traveling at 110 mph. I hit the brakes and pulled onto the shoulder. I found out it wasnt the speed sensor but more like the panel cluster which is a huge problem in these cars. It has been causing lots of problems and is now a money pit. With no problems it is very fast and reliable but when it goes get rid of it immediatly.
