1996 Pontiac Sunfire 2 Door Coupe review from North America
"I would buy another one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Very little wrong. Mostly due to my kids pulling on things.
Just normal maintenance.
General comments?
My first 7000 miles were put on driving on the Autobahn.
This car had at the least 4000 of these miles put on at 100 to 110 mph.
It was then taken to Texas where I thought the heat would start problems. None.
Then back to Germany. Still no problems.
The seats can be a little uncomfortable on long drives, though.
