I bought this car used w/ 41000 mi.about 6 mo. ago and have been pleasantlysuprised with it. While not the most robust on the road, it is efficient w/my 34 mpg (and given my daily commute of 90 miles round trip-its vital!). I haven't had any problems with it other than needing brakes and a new battery. Always starts right up and have not had any other problems with it. With the 2.2L engine in mine, its not the most powerful force on the road but it does its job. If you're looking for something to get you back and forth cheaply, this may foot the bill for ya.

My car has been great so far. No major problems and the regular maintenance has been inexpensive.

I love my Sunfire! This car is small with a BIG attitude. I have the sun and sound package and the only thing I hate is that I am constantly blowing the speakers! I will continue leaving those other 4 cylinders in my rear view!

It been a good little car but with a lot of problems. After 4 attempts to fix transmission gringing noise problem still persists. A/C lower 2 settings no longer work. Fuel gauge failed and needed replaced. Low on power compared to competitors. Seat are now worn out. This car is only 3 years old with only 42000 miles on it.

I love it. I've got the bright yellow and a 5-speed manual transmission and it is great. And the most important thing is, i can smoke cavaliers.
