Still Awesome @ 140k miles!!

I purchased my fully loaded Sunbird SE 3.1L-v6 in '96 when it had 30k miles. It now has 140k miles and it's been an awesome car. I get awesome acceleration from stoplights and for passing; car also has a very smooth ride and great handling. Overall, this little car has been very good to me. So good to me that when I went looking for another car a couple of years ago, I ended up keeping my Sunbird because nothing else performed as well. The name of the game, boys and girls, is maintenance. Keep up with your oil changes and transmission fluid changes and the other basic maintenance and chances are high your vehicle will do well.

My first car

My sunbird has since died but for the 7 or so months I had it it was my pride and joy. It was a 5 spd manual which made it lots of fun, with a 3.1 v6. Not much power. Anyway the thing did burnouts like no other. I only had a few problems like the clutch going (my bad) and the alternator. In the last few months it got probably twenty to the gallon but before that it got 30 to 35. This car was my second life

I have to say this with a heavy heart because the other day I had a truck w/ trailer backed into my Sunbird causing more damage to it than the car is worth.I don't agree. I have had this car for 8 years. It has 170,000 miles on it. Not 1 time in the 8 years has it EVER left me sitting on the side of the road. It has been in some rough conditions& always come through. I don't think I could have found a better car. For the most part the only routine maintance was ever needed. Even with the damage done from the truck I was still able to drive it away. How many people can say that about their car?

Great car, V6 5 spd is a whole lot of fun to drive. Car is reliable and great to drive. Wish they still made them! Could be better on gas, but is probably mostly my fault, the car just sounds great going through the gears!

I love my Sunbird

This car was my first, so that I could commute to college. I bought it in 2003 with 77,000 miles on it, and it still runs great. I like how roomy the driver's seat is, because I am a tall woman, and I sometimes feel cramped in small cars. It has never not started up for me, even in the below 0 Illinois winters. Very reliable car. The engine runs a little rough, but every mechanic that has looked at it says that it's in good condition. I had to have a valve job done on it, but that's to be expected with age. I would probably keep driving it for a a few more years, if I hadn't been rear-ended, smashing in the trunk. Insurance called it a total. I was kept safe, though, so that's a plus.
