EDIT:
While the answer provided by someone else (above) is correct on most makes and models, it is incorrect in regards to the the sunfire of production years 2000 and up. There is no dipstick on a 2000 sunfire as I have owned two and know from first hand experience (2.2 and 2.4 although not GT) GM decided that since the fluid never really needs replacing for the life of the vehicle that they could scrap the dipstick all together. Fortunately there is a very accessable red cap on the top of the transmission (driver side) which is labeled. Either take your car in to the mechanic, or top it up yourself. Just be carefull not to add too much fluid or the pressure could cause a leak and possibly a fire should it spill onto the exhaust or engine from what ive been told (informed by a mechanic).
