Was a great car until I hit 100K miles

Bought this car used around 40K miles. Was a great little car until I hit about 100K miles. Then it started needing a major repair every year. Finally decided to stop putting money into it around 155K miles. Sad to see this cute little car go; was a great gas efficient vehicle when I had a long commute.

DON"T BUY THESE CARS!!!! Yes, they look nicer than the Honda Fit and Yaris, and mine even came with power windows, moon roof, on-Star, sports interior and stylish wheels, BUT it is all show and no substance. The car is not even 3 years old and has had the PCM computer changed (the computer that controls EVERYTHING on the car - and would cost around $1000 if not covered by warranty, the ignition coil changed twice (each costing around $300 if not covered by warranty), and the oxygen sensors changed (each costing around $300 if not covered by warranty). Look online and the problems with the ignition coil, spark plugs and oxygen sensors are commonplace. I WILL NEVER BUY A GM AGAIN. Wake up GM!!
have you driven a PONTIAC lately?

Traded in a '95 Jeep Cherokee for this beauty! Anything better than 12mpg in town was worth it. But this car is amazing! Love the interior, only it needed a full center console for storage. Love the lumbar support. It really is FUN to drive. I look forward to going to work every morning just to get in it! I, too would like to have tinted windows. I'm down south, and it makes a difference. Got it fully loaded for $10,200!! By the way, I was going to get a g5, but muuuch less head room! Thanks, Pontiac, for the great car.
Just LOOKING at it makes me smile!

What a fun car! Even when you're not driving it you can just look at it and get a good chuckle! Surprisingly good seat comfort (that's vital to me). Great gas mileage. Performs just fine on the freeway, but there's a little road noise at freeway speeds.
Economy, comfort and reliability

Great car for the money. Good pick up and drive..Great visibility..very comfortable. Not alot of space in back seat although would be okay for kids. Great trunk space. Regret we don't have ABS.
