1996 Pontiac Sunfire GT review from North America
"Piece of Junk!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Everything and Anything! It seemed like every couple of months, something needed to be replaced and I'm not exaggerating. I spent, by far, more money repairing the piece of junk than I paid for the car. I could have bought a brand new car with the money that I spent in repairs. I would never recommend anyone owning a sunfire. Not worth the headache.
Also, the car is very small and not very comfortable.
General comments?
They look cute and the GT does have some speed to it, but that's about it. Oh and I guess it was VERY GOOD on gas!
