1996 Pontiac Sunfire review from North America
"Sweet 4 banger that is decent off the line"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car has been great so far.
My alternator was having a small bit of trouble, but that's about it.
General comments?
The car is great nice and quick off the line. I used an accelerometer and managed to pull a 7.8 second 0-60 on 87 oct, not bad for a car I picked up for 2 grand, that's completely stock BTW.
A lot faster than the 2.2, I even pulled a new 2004 4 banger Eclipse and an Integra with this Sunfire LOL; not bad for an economy car.
