Yeah man! That Aveo is the best saling Compact car in the world and after reading your revies of it I can see why! That is remarkable that it held up as good as it did in a crash at 30mph. That is something that cannot be expected from other competitors such as the tiny,tiny,tiny Toyota Yaris, and the Honda Fit. I think that they would probably fair like that Geo. That Aveo is one solid little car from all of the studying that I have done on it. You know it was built as a Daewoo for a number of years before Daewoo went bust in the US and then Chevy inherited her into its line up. The 1.6L power plant was carried over and from all that I have heard, that is a no frills, powerful, and rock solid little engine. It stands up to same country rivals Kia Rio, and Hyundai Accent engines. I think that your step up from the Geo to the Aveo was a good move and a clear step up. I am glad that you are enjoying your car and I hope that the wreck has not messed anything up.
BTW, what is your take on that 2007 Aveo sedan? You know they revised it a little. Nothing in the powerplant or tranny, but I'd say the styling cues are pretty cool though!
I just want you to know that hearing about your car is very interesting to me and I hope to hear more on it in the future! Please keep me posted and in the future, just post up anyhting on this thread and I will be sure to get back to you. Nice talking with you and I hope to hear more from you soon, Thanks again!
