More comfortable inside than any of the Vibes rivals. I am NOT a GM fan, but, this little car is not the typical GM. Developed by Toyota, you can drive this car and feel the build quality of a Toyota/Lexus product. No other $20K car offers Navigation, especially DVD- Based Nav. Welcome to the 21st Century, GM. Continue to share with you Japaneese peers.
Good solid car with some issues

Interior design is great. Very flexible, roomy, and comfortable, however there have been a few quality issues common to this model. Broken blend door motor, broken latches on HVAC air filter, overly sensitive automatic headlight sensor that turns on headlights and dims dash lights on a sunny day when A-pillar casts a shadow on sensor. I've had an issue with the headlights mysteriously turning on when the car sits overnight in temperatures near or below freezing, resulting in a dead battery the next morning. No mechanical problems. Fuel mileage is excellent with 1.8L engine. I get about 31-32mpg in mostly city driving. Of course the downside is that acceleration with this engine is anemic.

I have driven the car for only 5,000, but it has been in the shop over 5 times trying to get the Sun roof to stop leaking and popping. I am not looking forward to a winter in the snow with this roof. pontiac are considering a recall because of the poor performance / design. I do not like the way the roof flexes when the Sun Roof opens and closes.
Fun to drive

I like everything about the car except the annoying rattle in my dashboard. The dealership and Pontiac so far has not been helpful. I noticed robodog61 had the same problem but he got his fixed. "Owned for 3 months, problems with dashboard rattle fixed by dealer...." I'm not sure how to get a lod of this gut to find out what was done.
