Very reliable and responsive car.
Upgraded to performance parts resulting in more hp during acceleration.. needs a higher top speed though.. but 0-60mph in about 4.5 sec.. love this car.
4.5 seconds??? yeah right more like 8.5.
4.5 sec's to 60MPH!? Yeah sure. The sunfire's had 110HP.
Even 8.5 sec's is highly unlikely! more like 10 sec's. It was rated in Consumers magazine at 10 sec's. Why does every
single 2 door cavalier and sunfire owner think they are driving sports cars? If only they knew how silly they look!
mine gets up to 60 in 5.0 seconds... so don't talk before you know it, if it takes 10, I would suggest checking your tranny!
Well I have just purchased a Sunfire SE 2door coupe and I must admit it does look sporty, but there is noway its going from 0-60 in five seconds.. i believe it would be more like 9 or ten, now I know there was a GT and I know nothing about those so maybe with that engine it might be a little different.
You know I was looking the comment about every cavalier and sunfire owner thinking they have a sports car I find it more true of people in civics and other rice rockets.
0 - 60 in 4.5 seconds? Probably more like 14.5 seconds, and maybe 9 with a GT. If you're going to brag about 0 - 60 times or 1/4 mile times, at least have the guts to make it sound realistic. Even better, back it up with a time-slip. (Does this person even drive??)
"mine gets up to 60 in 5.0 seconds... so don't talk before you know it, if it takes 10, I would suggest checking your tranny!
Unless you have extensive modifications, and I mean extensive, you're not hitting 60 in five seconds, so think before you talk.
Maybe he means 60 km/h lol.
If people can modify Civics to go as fast as they do then they are not silly. It's a whole different subculture that some of you might not get. But yeah, why not mod a Sunfire, it's about time someone did something with an American sport compact car other than a Neon. I mean GM actually makes superchargers for these cars. So while I don't believe the post about 4.5 in 60, I do believe 6.5 or slightly lower in 60 is possible. I think a Sunfire convertible, with a nice bodykit on it would be a real head turner.
