Used Pontiac Aztek for Sale

I honestly did not find anything I disliked about the vehicle. I loved the look of it, the size, the performance, the accessories. I love the idea of a split hatch, and having seats and cupholders on the lower gate.

The styling of the Aztec was truly unique. It was a true love it or hate it car. It didn't know what it wanted to be, part SUV part luxury car. The appointments in the car where truly awesome, stylish and comfortable. I believe the car only ran for 4 or 5 years before it sank into oblivion and brought the whole company down with it because of its failure to catch on to the car buying public. The car was introduced to the buying public in 2001 ( the year I owned) to Luke warm reviews. As I stated before it was a love it or hate it type of car. I had the misfortune of loving the unique body styling when I first saw it. Then I hoped in for a test drive and the ride was super, smooth as sitting in my living room. It handled well and had a superior sound system. Unfortunately all the good things this car had going for it could not compensate for the small under powered engine it was given, the faulty electrical system that was installed and the body control modulus that where placed through out the car that shorted out and had to be replaced ( at about $200 each) every time the wind blew.

When I first saw this car, I was turned off. I didn't like the way it looked. A ten year old boy encouraged me to test drive it because it looked 'futuristic.' Doubtful, I got behind the wheel... That was eight years ago, and I have never regretted the purchase of my secondhand Aztek. It drives wonderfully - it feels substantial, but it's not a big, heavy vehicle. It rather has minivan comfort and utility in an SUV package. I particularly like the way the seating is raised, so you aren't straining to see over the hood, and the visibility is good all the way around. The way the back seats fold flat to accommodate cargo is a simple and smooth operation and offers TONS of space in the back. Its gas mileage has been pretty impressive, and it has required few repairs. The way the exterior body has held up to the weather in this part of the country is definitely noteworthy - it has no rust, even though it's a ten year old car with a few small scrapes and dings. The finish is still shiny and the panels and trim are intact and in great shape. The coolest thing about this car is that the cargo bay is set up for camping! It has an optional camping package that turns the cargo bay into a tent. The extra power outlets, storage compartments, tie downs and cup holders (yep, cup holders in the back!) As well as 'cutout' seating in the tailgate make this a built-in weekend getaway machine. It's been a lot of fun over the years just to back it up to a campfire and start the adventure.
