Buying the 2006 Pontiac Wave
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2006 Pontiac Wave for sale by us right now. The 2006 Pontiac Wave for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
A buyer's checks
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Specs, explained
It runs the 1.6L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
By the EPA's combined rating of 9.0 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 27 litres. Expect about $13.95 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles.
Room inside
Being a small car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. For luggage, 198 litres means about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Best uses
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the Wave for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If the Wave is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Money matters
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.95 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,600 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Which one to look for
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Over to you
Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.
Rent it for a week before you buy
