looking to buy a sunfire

[applethief]

so i'm looking through some papers and the internet for a car. i've run into a few sunfires so far that i'd like to look into. but i'm just wondering, for those of you who currently own a sunfire, how does it drive? are there things i should look out for before buying one?

i'll post whichever ads that catch my eye on here and hopefully you guys could help me out (prices are in CAN dollars):

is the 2.5L real? if so, who built it? and are the miles on that motor? the stock motor was the 2.4L, so it's most likely a typo for that amount, the motor alone is worth almost that much, and could be sold seperatly.

the 1998 is the "older" style TC motor, where as the 1999 and 2000 are the "newer" tc motor. basically the same except for the EGR I believe.

The cars handle ok for what they are, economy, but can be make fast and more "high end" if you have the money. so the choice is yours. look at each and take them all for drives. Whichever one you like the best is the one you should get. Since they are all the same except for minor upgrades and changes.

Check out auto trader .ca . It`ll give you an idea what they are going for in your area. The first car is at least 800 to 1000 too much . the `99 is maybe a grand too high with those options. the `98 with only 44`000 on it makes you kind of wonder. if it`s only got that much mileag was it in storage or does it have a gazillion hours on the engine from just running around city. Also what the ad states for options ,my plain jane sunfire has. just my
