  • Love it!!!!! - 2005 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    This is my first car and Im so in love with it. I bought a bright yellow 2003 Sunfire GT fully loaded and its one sweet ride. It handles well and when the pedal hits the floor you better hang on tight for the ride! Its hard not to speed with this baby - getting cruise control added this week :)

    After 4 problem-free years of driving a 1998 Sunfire ( bought used ), I purchased a 2005 4-door sedan in early 2005. Again, Ive enjoyed problem-free driving for the past two years. I noted several subtle improvements over my 98 model. Like many domestic products, I believe that the Sunfire has received an unfair rating from the so-called experts, who seem to be fixated on the supposed superiority of certain pet imports. The consistently very high ratings of Sunfire owners speak for themselves!

    I bought my little sunfire new in 2005. I got the sport package with the snazzy wheels and side designs. I have had more complements on this Electric Blue car, than my red mustang! It just looks FAST and sporty. Im not even a big fan of blue, but people love it. I have never had to do a thing to it, just reg. oil changes, runs great. I only have 35,000 miles on it, but Im pretty rough on a car, and it has done well, and is still BEAUTIFUL. I have the 5 speed manuel, gets good gas mileage, about 33 hwy, 25 in town. My kids all say it is a really rough passenger ride, but as the driver, I dont notice it. It has a lot of get up and go (torque).

    I have had this car for about 7 months now and it is the most fun car I have ever owned. It is bright red and handles like a dream. Strangers approach me often asking me questions or complimenting it.

    I own an 05 white Sunfire and this was my first car. I couldnt ask for anything better. I absolutely love it. I handles beautifully and Im in love with the exterior. This is an excellent car for the money and I am proud to own it.

    It was inexpensive, fun, sporty looking, great on gas and a smooth ride. I cannot be happier with a car that did not break the bank to afford. I highly recommend this car to anyone looking for a reliable, fun car with low car payments!

  • Perfect Car!!!! - 2005 Pontiac Sunfire
    By -

    I actually came over from the ford family. After driving a ford all my life, I was incredibly impressed with the 2005 model and am somewhat disappointed that they will no longer be making this car!!! After researching vehicles for over a year, I decided to make the purchase this year and am MORE than pleased with the end result!
