1995 Pontiac Sunfire SE review from North America
"A fantastic deal and a reliable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The head gasket blew on my car at 219,000 km.
It sometimes has problems with the brakes.
General comments?
Sometimes under hard acceleration the steering wheel vibrates.
The car is overall a very comfortable car to drive.
It has great handling.
It has pretty decent power and torque for a 4 cylinder engine. It would have been nice to have the GT model. The extra 30 horse goes a long way.
