Used 2013 Chevrolet Sonic RS Hatchback FWD for Sale near Kalispell, MT

A lot of people these days are in the market for subcompact vehicles. In today's world where money is harder to come by, yet easier to spend, many times when looking for a new car functionality and economy will trump power and fun-factor.The Sonic RS asks, "Why can't you have both?" [Performance] With a sporty and powerful 4 cylinder turbo engine the RS has more than enough get up and go. Passing maneuvers feel confident and capable in this car, only let down by a slightly laggy throttle response. The six speed manual, while a little notchy, just begs to be rowed through the gear. Having said that, if you have a bit of a lead foot you will find that you will be spending the majority of your time in 1st through 3rd, then to 6th, as the 3rd gear will get you up to highway speeds. Breaking is competent, if underwhelming, but it gets the job done. The cars electronic stability control system can be a little heavy handed, but can be turned off manually if you so choose. I tend to turn it off, my wife tends to leave it on. Having a choice is never a bad thing. [Exterior] The car's exterior is aggressive, low slung (in comparison to other subcompacts in its class) and loud. The RS treatment gets you a more aggresive front grill, spoiler, 17" aluminum rims, a loud(er than stock) trapezoidal exhaust tip and plenty of chrome to go around. Chrome... perhaps too much. Plasti-Dip works well I hear. [Interior] The car's interior is without a doubt function over form. The cabin primarily consists of hard plastics (with nice texturing). Up front you will find a 7" infotainment system that can serve every function from giving you directions, playing video (only while parked!) to controlling your MP3 player. Hands free calling is available if your phone can connect to the infotainment center via bluetooth, as is hands free Siri for all you Apple folks. On your steering column you will find volume, station/track controls, as well as an answer call, and hangup button. A nice feature you won't find on many manuals, cruise control, is also present. Seats are a black leather (with red accents) w/ micro-suade inserts in the front, black leather in the back. The ensamble is completed with a leather wrapped steering column and shifter. The car does *not* feel like a budget subcompact, not even close, the leather is smooth and supple, and the seats are comftorable. Add in aluminum pedals, power everything and soon you will see the value of the RS. It gives you *everything* you could possibly want, and all around 20K depending on available discounts. Between Chevy and dealer discounts we were able to get ours (with a sunroof, the *only* option) for $20.5. A great car, at a great price, quick, tech-filled, comftorable, efficient and fun. What are you waiting for?
