Aveo = GM = Followers not leaders

(Could anybody read the reviews on the Aveo, and do a lil' online research and STILL decide to buy an Aveo? Really?) Worse yet, if you finance the car you can add INTEREST charges to the total cost of the car which has little value after you've finished paying off the loan!

The Aveo is certainly an investment! A bad one.

I'd advise somebody to buy a basic Yaris or even an Accent before I'd ever advise somebody to buy an Aveo.

I hope you know that is what everyone that isn't a Yaris owner says about the Yaris..
