Great car, no problems at 120k
My dad first purchased the Sunfire new in 2003 as a 2nd vehicle to commute to work. He got it with all the bells and whistles (which only is power windows, A/C, sunroof, monsoon sound system, dual exhaust and spoiler) for only $13,000! I ended up taking the car off his hands and it has NEVER failed me. 120k mile and I have never ever had one problem with it. Of course I keep up with oil changes, tires, brakes and the like. The car still looks current and modern and it does perform well for only having 140 horses!
good
I just LOVE my 2003 sunfire!!!

The mean looking sunfire
Trade in my 98 4 door sedan for the 2003 fell in love with it. Very quick and fast, love the stereo system
The sunfire is Hot!!!
The sunfire was my first new car and I must admit that it wasn't the car that I had planned on getting. Once the sales rep suggested that maybe I should give this car a test drive. I was in love!!! My sunfire is fully loaded and black, its beautiful adn the ride is soo smooth. I travel a lot and the mileage that you get per gallon is wonderful. I love my Sunfire, I love it so much I named mine, her name is Baby Girl.
Major Problems
Have had major problems with the brakes suddenly locking up while at hwy speeds while not being able to shift above 3rd gear. Took five dealer visits before problem was even diagonosed. Was very disturbed about how serious a problem could not be reproduced in the shop. Once nearly got steamrollered by a semi while trying to regain power. Problem finally stopped. Also, power window motors have had been replaced 4 times at $300+ a crack. Would I buy this car again? No.
