I'm not a huge small car person, but this car is strange. I have no idea what chevy was thinking when they built the 1st models. The older ones are small.. and I mean small... the new 2009 ones aren't as small but they could make it a tad bit bigger. The big thing thing I've been hearing a lot of lately is that Chevy is planning on making the Aveo the next Cobalt. Overall, I think the cobalt has a much better apperance as well as the performance.
