I bought this car in december of 1999, I beleive that the car was in an accident before I bought it, because the driver side door does not have the labels on the door for the weight or tire pressure, all it has is a parts number sticker a white lable. I have asked the pontiac dealer about it and they said that some come with just that label. I payed $16.000 for the car and beleive that the car was in an accident prior to purchased date. I have had the paint peel off the hood shortly after buying it and now peeling on the roof over windsheild. But with the sticker off the door I belive that I was taken. I still owe $9.000 in payments. I also think that it was a lemon, because on the winsheild is a sticker that says sunset pontiac satisfaction, a round sticker on the driver side of windsheild. I have never seen another sticker like this on any other vechicle.
