The 2005 Pontiac Sunfire is a sporty-looking 2-door budget coupe that packs a zippy little engine, making this a nice alternative for those wanting a sports-like ride but who haven't got the sports car budget. Now ten years old, 2005 will be the last year for Pontiac's entry-level car.
There are no changes to the 2005 Sunfire, only a new Sport Appearance option package. In addition to a stiffer suspension, it adds on larger 16-inch tires, a sporty trim on the inside, chrome-tipped dual exhausts, and optional graphics. The 2005 Sunfire comes in a base and 1SV model, and both come standard with the Ecotec 2.2-liter, 140-hp I4 engine, air conditioning, rear defrost, and a rear spoiler. The coupe fits four, with front bucket seats and a 60/40 split-fold rear seat. The 1SV is the ultra-budget model, coming with a 5-speed manual transmission and a CD player, and without any options. The base can be had with either the manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission.
1SB and 1SC packages can be added to the base model, to include power windows and leather trim. The 1SC features ABS brakes, traction control, and alloy wheels. OnStar, XM, a sunroof, and front-side airbags are other options. Sitting low to the ground with a low roofline, the 2005 Sunfire offers sporty looks at a low price, which most of the owners appreciate. They say the engine is surprisingly powerful and the car is faster than it looks. Handling is responsive, and gas mileage is decent. The 2005 Sunfire suffers from a cheap-looking interior, with plastic parts that rattle, blind spots, and uncomfortable seats that lack legroom and lumbar support.
4.5 Overall rating
(29 reviews)I love everything about this car. It has great performance. It has excellent handling, braking and acceleration. The cost of ownership would be priceless in my opinion. This car is awesome to drive and it is fun to drive. The appearance of the car is awesome. It is a great car to modify in my opinion. The interior of it looks great and the same goes with the exterior of the car. The build quality is awesome. I have never had a problem with it as far as owning this car. I have only had this car for a little over a year.
This car is really dependable - it has no problems with cold weather - starts quickly and always. There are some minor scratches, but overall the appearance is very nice. It is especially cool with the fog lights on. If you're on the highway and need to pass with a tight opening, it never fails to get you in. Great acceleration which really suprised me at first. I put new brake shoes on it a couple of weeks ago. It is a nice car to work on for the regular maintenance - very easy. It has very good steel too, i feel very safe in it - feels solid. Looks a bit futuristic and sporty. Stereo is nice with front and rear speakers, and plays CD's.
The performance of the car is awesome, especially with the acceleration, braking, and handling. It handles really well on the roads. The cost of ownership is awesome. This car is really great on gas mileage. It is a fun car to drive too.
Performance - This car performs like any pontiac should. Corners well, accels nice, stops when I want it too. Build Quality well it would be great BUT GM put the L61 junk eco tec in it and it burnt a valve so I have replace the engine.. Appearance Sporty.. Cost is Resonable.. Best of all its fun
Very peppy and economical, easy to drive and it looks great and sporty, cheap to buy and run, build quality could be better and some design aspects aren't the best but definitely satisfied with my Pontiac and would purchase again.
