Nice, much better looking than its Aveo 5 twin, don't really care for the front end on that one.(removed)'s with those stupid fake port holes on the fenders though? Why do car companies think we want those all of the sudden? I say they can take all that crappy pimptastic bling and shove it somewhere. Has some nice features though, it's interesting to see that despite its Daewoo roots it now has stuff found on true GM cars like the oil life reminder and OnStar with remote diagnostics. They must have really worked over the electronics on the new model.

It smoked the Vibe last year by 30,000 units. I've read somewhere that it even outsells everything it competes with (Accent, Rio, Yaris, Fit...)I guess for those Canadians offended by the looks of the 2009 Vibe, they can get a hint of the last gen Vibe by buying the Wave.

Yeah, somebody must like them since they sell a bunch... probably since they're really cheap. I picked the Accent over the Aveo. My mom has an Aveo, it isn't bad - passable for basic transportation, but I don't like it as much as I do my Accent. But you can get this rockin' "leatherette" interior on the new Aveo complete with woodgrain, talk about deluxe. like a $15,000 caddy! (removed)!

G3 is much more appropriate. Was this already being sold in other countries or Canada?Pretty much looks like the mix from a G5 and previous gen Vibe and the backside of a Aveo
