  • Better than expected - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    The quality of the 2007 Torrent has surprised me. Very quiet with great room and ample performance. No rattles or squeaks! This is an SUV you need to consider before you buy an import.

  • A great small SUV! - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    I have been looking for a small SUV since 2005. I have looked on and off but in 2006 when I saw the Torrent I knew I had to have one. I test drove the Rav and CRV and the Torrent left the best impression on me. It had the feel of a sporty Pontiac. The Torrent has decent giddy-up not as much as my 2005 Bonneville SLE but still enough. The back-seat slides forward and back to adjust for cargo room or leg room. I have been very happy with its balance of function and performance. In a crowded segment the Torrent stands out, and frankly there is not a better small SUV out there for the money. I am enjoying this little thing a lot and it is perfect for a family the likes to travel.

  • Style, efficiency & reliability - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    Ive upgraded to the 2007 Torrent from the 2004 Aztek - wow! My Aztek was very reliable but Pontiac raised the bar even more with the Torrent. Style, class and efficiency are very common with Pontiac and the Torrent is no exception. I have the "Preferred" and "Sun and Sound" packages which make my Torrent feel worth double the money! The Torrent also handles wonderfully and is very fun to drive. Kudos Pontiac - the Torrent is a wonderful vehicle!

  • Car Great. Oil usage very bad. - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    My 2007 Torrent has 13,000 miles on it. It has been carefully driven and dealer serviced. It uses 1 qt. of oil every 2000 miles. GM says this is normal for all of their cars and trucks and refuses to fix it. Dealer says theyve not seen this before but refuses to help. GMs Regional Manager refuses to contact me so I can discuss this with GM. This defect and GMs refusal to honor their warranty has ruined our experience with an otherwise excellent vehicle. I strongly suggest you not buy a GM vehicle.

  • Fair - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    This SUV crossover is a good attempt by Pontiac but seems to have been more of an afterthought than a outright new vehicle. Oversights with Interior items such as a poorly placed cup holder (blocks the Emergency brake) which also allows drink-sweat to drip directly into a accessory outlet directly below the cupholders. The instrument cluster is eay to read and the blood-red color is nice at night. Although overall i am very happy with this vehicle, i woould appreciated more attention to detail such as the drink holders and the clips holding the sun visors. The clips do not firmly hold the visor so they sometimes come loose when driving.

  • Great little Pontiac - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    This is a true Pontiac with its style and features and far less price then many in its class. I live in Montana and have never had a problem with snow in the back country or just going on a sunday drive ( I have the AWD ) Just a fun little SUV to drive.

  • Love my 07 Torrent - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    Guess I got lucky, I love my Torrent! We downsized from a Chevy Suburban. Sure there are little things like the chrome on the shifter, a spot on the outside mirrors can catch the sun just right @ 0600 & the rubber seal on the front windows can come loose, needing pushed back in, but overall, very reliable car. Handles great in snow, mud, rain & in the fields. Other cars slip & slide, mine stays true, havent felt this good behind the wheel since dads 80 Auto 4WD AMC Eagle, my 80 Mazda GLC (rear wheel drive) & my 93 Subaru Loyale (on demand 4WD). Folks carried star route mail rts, weve driven all kinds of cars in all kinds of conditions. We find a car we like, we try & keep it!

  • Love This Vehicle! - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    Absolutely love the Pontiac Torrent. We were looking to get out of our minivan, and this little SUV was a great choice. Love the style. We have 3 kids and there is plenty of room in the back seat. Lots of leg room. Handles well. Very stylish!

  • Perfect Crossover - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    I traded my 97 Firebird for a more practical vehicle. If you want sharp looks with functionality, this is the car for you. The mesh inside the Torrent is a lot smoother than its counterpart. Another reason I bought the Torrent is to tow my 15 Boston Whaler. The hitch is a stage 3(heavy duty) and it pulls the boat with ease, especially in low gear. I love it and so does my girl. I love it.

  • Love It - 2007 Pontiac Torrent
    By -

    We took our Torrent for test drive and knew that this was our vehicle. I love the leather seats. The only thing that I would like to see is the cup holders and the emergency brake changed. They are a pain where they are and the window controls took a bit to get used to, but overall I love my Torrent and will be buying another one when this one is too old.
