ehhh... stilll not enough to dethrown the srt4. It's the same engine as the saturn redline. This car has a more "tuner look", but still SC, which = gay.

it's a Saturn (Ion) Redline basically. Cobalt was actually first but the Redline went to production ahead of it. They put the same motor in it (which I hated)....meh..I wouldn't touch it.

I like it much better than the cavilier.
Tint the windows, lose the wing, slam it on its nuts and it would look clean.

Those seats looks like they're for larger people *cough* fat chicks *cough*

That wing kind of bothers me, its like a smaller, gaudier version of an STi wing?

Its looks good on paper, but then when you look up from the sheet at the car itself and see that a lot of it is factory rice and the same old Chevy you get the phj33r.

We'll have to see what it drives like when its available. If it drives like *** I could care less what the spec sheet and photos look like. I don't really care for the exterior but the interior has potential, it appears to have a hint of German. It does need better bolstered seats, however.

I know they had to replace the Cavalier... but I'm still wondering if this is any better... They've even built up the hype with commercials comparing it to the Corvette, it's big brother. If they can pull off what they did to the Vette, which is 2x as expensive, then it will be a great car. On the other hand, it's a compact car from GM, which, still doesn't ring well with a lot of people.

So far I think it's ok and pretty good in some respects, but the sedan looks like an old Cav. and the jury still needs to be seen.

its funny how companies are trying to copy great cars
the kia amanti or something like that tried to copy the design of a bentley
the honda accord coupe tried to copy the mercedes e series tail lights (our civics kinda also do but thats just my opinion)
the chevy aveo is trying to copy the scion xa
the list can go on an on but the trith is that many american companies especially gm are trying to come up with cool cars for the youth so they try copyin on already existing great models wich that tells that regardless of hp numbers is not a well design /engineered car nowadays engineers just can't come up with their own models i guess

Well Chevy has nothing better to do buy copy Honda all the time

Imagine how much that rear wing is going to slow you down, along with it weighing 3000lbs, no wonder that had to super charge it.

i wasn't calling those other cars great. the great car i was talking about that all the car companies are copying is out CIVICs.
