I bought it with only 33,000 miles on it and it has been great so far. It is very cute and comfortable. It looks small but the inside is pretty big and spacious. There is one thing that I noticed which was the acceleration. It takes a while to accelerate. That doesn't bother me though. The fact that there are only 2 settings for the windshield wipers is a little annoying at times too. That is not a big deal though. Love this car!! :)

Picked up this car on the cheap for driving down to the lake and back with my buddy. It had been sitting for 4 months so we knew it would take some to get it back up to speed. Typical stuff; Changed fluids, head gasket, fixed the brake lines, new stereo and cosmetic work later it has become a good car for us.
The top works great, everything electric works for being such an old car, and we get 30 mpg in the old 2.0 4 cyl with the automatic. It's nothing special, but its gets the job done.
If you take care of this car, it will take care of you.

I've had this car along time and I've had no major expenses, just rotten maintenance, it's a good car and fast.

I finally retired my old Sunbird at 237,000 miles. I really appreciated how good a car it was when I tried to replace it and couldn't. There is simply nothing comparable out there. Pontiac directed me to Chevy who tried to sell me a Cobalt. Real piece of junk in comparison. It is 1000 pounds heavier, has a bigger engine (not necessary) and doesn't ride as well. Fuel economy is advertised much less. (I got over 36 MPG on my Sunbird (5- speed) until about 3 years ago; I'm sure my compression was bad at the end.) Finally bought a Hyundai Elantra, but it doesn't ride as well, has a smaller trunk, and takes up more space in my crowded garage.
Love it - still driving it!

A fun car to drive. Pretty good on gas - haven't had to do many repairs in the 15 years I've been driving it. I am just now thinking of replacing the engine because of high mileage.

I paid $500 for this car. It needed everything. I had been seriously neglected. Rebuilt the motor, and tranny and gave it a tune up. I added a bigger turbo, and a few other goodies. It is seriously quick almost keeping up with my 04 SRT4 neon (almost). Interior is cheap, but it makes an awesome winter snow car. It even handles pretty darn good. With big exhaust is sounds alot like an old school muscle car when compared the the new honda's. The 2.0 is a very torquey motor. There is absolutely no lag when the stock turbo is being used. There's a million of them in junk yard so parts are cheap.
Stay Away!!

This car is the biggest headache in the
world! If it isn't one thing it's
another, it has soo many intermittent
problems that there isn't enough room
to state them all! If you like to push
your car instead of drive it this is
the car for you!!
Fun for the cash!!!

This car has been a great surprise. It
goes like stink, handles fairly well
and looks sharp. Its very cheap to
maintain and it not bad on gas either.
165 h.p. out of a 2.0 liter engine is
not to shabby either. I'm very happy
with it.
Great car

I bought this car back in Sept 01'. I
have had nothing but problems. Within
2 weeks of owning the car, i needed to
have the head gasket replaced, the
alternator replaced, transmission, gas
tank, fuel lines and many other parts.
This car was the biggest waste of money
because i ended up paying more money to
fix it than the car was worth.
