1999 Pontiac Sunfire GT review from North America
"It is a great car if you want something sporty for a low price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My alternator died at 55,000 miles.
General comments?
It has great performance for the price.
The car handles great with the factory tire and wheel size, 205/65R16.
The Sunfire GT can be upgraded easily.
I've added a strut stabilizer bar, air intake, and exhaust which has improved the performance.
I love the car and I will own it until it dies.
