The Pontiac Phoenix for buyers

No Pontiac Phoenix is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Thinking about the Pontiac Phoenix? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

A buyer's checks

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

The figures, translated

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Who the Phoenix suits

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Space, size and seats

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.

A longer test drive

Drive the Phoenix on your commute before you commit to it. If the Phoenix is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.

Which one to look for

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

Running costs

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

When you know your dates

Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Pontiac Phoenix from us first.

Buying the Pontiac Phoenix

Does CarmaCars sell the Pontiac Phoenix?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Pontiac Phoenix before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
