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.

Bang for the buck - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
By Maximillian - June 5 - 1:46 pmSix months ago I purchased my 2004 used Sunfire. It had 26,000 miles on the odometer. No regrets. Great car. Extremely reliable. I would recommend it to everybody. Very cheap to buy if buying used. Bang for the buck when compared with other cars in its class. Extremely economical. The front cateye looks goes great with the car. IÂ’ve heard a lot of bad things regarding the pre-2003 models. I guarantee the past 2003 are completely different. I can only conclude that people who experience problems with 2003, 2004, and 2005 models are cars that have been in an accident and that have been not been properly repaired. If you buy it and it hasnÂ’t been in an accident you wont go wrong.

This is one car not to buy. D+ - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
By Stormynightout - May 24 - 10:00 amUpon driving this new vehicle for aproximately one month, I have come to realize that it is the cheapest piece of pure garbage on the road today. Along with all of the interior components ratteling, such as the dashboard, door panels, and headliner. The mechanical components were also assembled very poorly, such as the trunk locking mechanism, which has bent within one months use. The wonderful sound system that Pontiac raves about is silenced by the buzzing door panels that hold the speakers.

Sun and Fun Package - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
By Joe76 - May 18 - 10:00 amI bought my car in Feb. of 2004, the only problems I have had are the turn signals stopped working, the right rear speaker rattles, drivers side mirror shakes at high speeds, and the hood also shakes at high speeds. The only major problem that I have had, is the passenger side seat is starting to fray. They have fixed all the little problems except the seat. ItÂ’s a cheap car and I knew that when I bought it. But I didnÂ’t expect the seats to be so cheaply made the material is so thin the cavy has better quality seats. But all in all you get what you pay for.

Last Model Sunfire Out with a Bang - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
By Jonny - May 2 - 9:50 pmThe 2004 Pontiac Sunfire was definitely one for the books. With lots of economical problems with the cars history (the older 1990s models and early 2000 models) I expected some high maintenance work. However, I was disappointed at that end. The cars economical ability is standard. Change bulbs when burnt out, fill gas, change oil. The performance is also outstanding considering the heavy body style. With a 2.2L Ecotec engine backed by a 4 speed Automatic Transmission (I also drove a 5 speed manual) you will get the power you need to steer through tight corners while still being able to utilize the agility of the power-to-weight ratio. All in all, a fun car to drive.

Satisfied - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
By wa_drivr - July 23 - 10:00 amThis is a fun, zippy little car. Good on gas and fun to drive. The sound system, for a stock model, is pretty nice. I commute 120 miles a day and I dont seem to mind!

I love this little car - 2004 Pontiac Sunfire
By fett - June 22 - 10:00 amI love the way this little car looks and drives. Its way more fun than any of the other cars I drove and for some reason it feels more powerful than the others. Its dirt cheap and perfect for every day driving.
