I loved this car....
This was my 2nd car ever, from April of 2006 to this past Monday (7/2/12) when a monster storm hit and did too much damage to be repaired (total loss). I went from 63,000 to 187,000 between 06/2009-06/2012, if that tells you how good this car is. I about cried when they told me I couldn't have it back. Only things I've ever had to replace (besides tires/brakes) was the water pump and snake belt, which together was only 250, and the alternator went out this year and was 300. That's less than 600 for all the wear and tear I figured I have put on it. If it hadn't been for the storm I could've most likely driven this car another 3-5 years. Gonna miss, that is for sure.
Love!!
I bought this car in Ultra Silver Metallic in Oct. 2001 - right when the new 2002 models came out. I just traded it in a few weeks ago to buy a SUV. I had no choice since I’m in my 50’s now and have bad hip and knee problems (needed a vehicle with height - could barely get in and out of the Sunfire on a daily basis anymore). I really miss it. Sun and sound package was great - sunroof and better quality AM/FM with CD player. That car had fantastic pick-up. It just loved going fast on the highway and I loved the sound of the engine. It will always be my favorite car!!

Awesome car!
I bought this car in 2006 with barely 25,000 miles on it. I never had ANY problems with it, aside from totaling it last week. This car was never to the mechanic and ran very smoothly. The one thing I would've changed would have been a roomier back seat. The cup holders were also in an unpleasant spot. Extremely reliable car! I'm going to miss mine so much!
Great Car
This is my second sunfire SE coupe. I purchased this car in April '02 with 2 miles on it --- now it has 32,000 on it. This car is great. it has the sun & sound package and it gets 33 MPG on the highway and 26 MPG in the city. No problems runs great. looks good and less money than a civic ( I compared prior to purchase ). It has good performance for a small engine. just put custom wheels on it. looking forward to many trouble free years.
The odds and ends just the ends
fuel pumps go bad, and my chain snapped at 120,000 but other than that lol, my advice change fuel filter every 30k and change your timing at 100k
