Pros: Peppy engine, Loads of standard equipment, Bold styling, price.
Cons: Options can get expensive.
The Bottom Line: A car with style, grace, and strong outright performance, this car is a must for an enthusiast with a small pocket book.

Pros: Stylish.
Cons: A Razor scooter is more solid.
I've been driving a 1991 Plymouth Sundance for far too long, so I'm actively shopping for a new car. Now, I have to say I'm bitterly cheap so I'm looking at economy cars, 1 to 3 years old. I couldn't let the opportunity to look a Sunfire over pass me...

Pros: Everything, only time my Sunfire is at the shop is for an oil change, or scheduled maintenance.
Cons: the back seat
Early in 1998 I began my research on the internet for cars. I wanted a compact or smaller because my work commute is 30 miles one way. I wanted the best deal on gas mileage. After thoroughly checking out 6 manufacturers, I decided to go with Pontiac....
