Used 1995 Pontiac Sunfire Coupe Consumer Reviews
Sunfire Review
I bought my 95 Sunfire in 97 for my "college car" to run back and forth from home to school. I must say that I have had an unbelievable run. My plan was always to keep the car until graduation, in May 99, and then trade it in for something else. Well, I paid it off and it has run like a champ up 'til today. I plan on driving it until I am forced to buy something else. The AC still blows ice cold, in AZ no less, and it runs flawlessly. Only major repairs have been an alternator and a water pump since '97. May I have the same luck with my next car, which could very well be a Sunfire when the time comes.
Good car; poor paint
I bought my Sunfire new in May 1995. It's been a good car over the past eight years; I've opnly had minor problems such as small oil and radiator leaks. My air conditioning, defrost, vent, heater, etc. only work on high. My biggest problem is the paint job...no sooner did the paint warranty expire did the clear coat begin to peal and it looks horrible and gets worse every day. Also some rust is resulting...it's not worth fixing. Now that I'm older and getting ready to start a family; I'm realizing that it's no longer the car for me.
My Little Blue Coupe
Howdy. I've owned my 95 Pontiac Sunfire SE Coupe for 8 yrs. The car has good handling in the snow and rainey weather. Very little has been replaced on this car. It is built tough!
Reasonable for the Price
I bought my 95 Sunfire (used) when it was 2 years old. It has given me a really good run since then but a week ago the engine went out. One thing the mechanic told me is to beware of the smallest coolant leak because if not caught early it can ruin the engine. My car gave me 118,000 miles before it broke down but the mechanic did mention that many of the Sunfire's he had worked on went out at 75,000 miles. A good car, but beware once you get into those higher miles.
Selling my sunfire
I bought my '95 Sunfire new in June 95. The car now has 100K miles and is still going stong. No major repairs EVER. This has been a great car fo my wife for 6 years, then I got it. Now I will reluctantly sell the Sunfire. Oil, and tires are the only things that wear out. It has developed a small oil leak. I haven't heard many raves about this car, but I have to say that GM really did a lot of things right. The car is consistent, and affordable.
