Ok, how is that front end not aggressive? Large snout, tapered headlights, mean looking eye-like headlights...
Very nice #3!

Yeah, I think I need a nice ricer-mobile as a secondary car.

They look pretty nice in person, and I do think the little sedan looks pretty good. The silver one looks quite nice.

And is it still a ricer if it's built in Orion, Michigan? This will be the only small car sold here that is also built here.

Gah.. GM's releasing too many good cars to pick from for a 2nd car.

Park bench on the roof FTW!

Bump for IOM Sonic LTZ pics..

5spd, guessing it had the non-turbo 1.8L engine.

*Milk 1027* · 01-15-2011, 03:53 PM

Yup, this looks like my future winter car/DD.
Especially if it's near the price of an aveo + GM pricing

FenwickHockey65 · 01-15-2011, 04:04 PM

It's the 1.8L. The 1.4T models will have a "Turbo" badge on the back.

Zabo · 01-15-2011, 04:27 PM

I talked to the show people and a few GM reps there. Tight lipped on price for the most part but expect it to start in the 14-15s due to the technology involved in the car. Aveo starts around 12.5K

But doesn't the LTZ trim designate the better engine; the 1.4T??

Can't say for sure until we have packaging details which won't come until later this year.

not really, look at the equinox and traverse (and others). The LTZ comes with the I4, and optional V6. I'm kinda curious to see if you can get the 1.4T in the LS (or base model) Sonic.

Generally LS trim levels are Chevy's "buy it as you see it" model. Generally very few options and packages...like the Camaro LS, for example.
