Finally.

| I am not sure if you are all aware of this guys, but this car was really a 2000 model year Magnus sedan(Leganza successor) in Korea. It took so long to come here because of the Daewoo financial situation. 4 years later and this woo still looks better than any recent Japanese car I have ever seen. Just like its ancestor, my 99 Leganza CDX still looks better than any 2004 Japanese or American car, and has had zero problems to date. | |

Bluewinds, I'll bet you know the answer to there questions! Does the V6 Magnus have a manual transmission option in Korea? Might be able to extract a bit more power from the engine. I'll also bet there are tuners in the home market with stiffer suspension kits, maybe even a supercharger. Bluewinds, got any info on that? And, thanks. . . |

| look better than anything coming from Japan(DUH-because IT'S KOREAN-BUILT-THAT'S WHY-RIGHT GUYS?) of late. My love is for Kia/Hyundai's but I'll be watching these GMDaewoo A&T cars sold here as Suzuki's pretty closely for reliability and performance issues with new American buyers. Remember, Chevy sells a GMDA&T car, too, the Aveo. Oh, what fun it is to watch, huh? | |
| looks like it'll give Mr. Hyundai Sonata and Mrs. Kia Optima a run for their bank account! | |
| I love the Verona's styling. And it has a lot of features for the money. But the omission of side air bags is a big minus. The gas mileage won't help it sell, either. | |

I like the Verona's styling as well - with two exceptions - the steering wheel and the giant Superman "S" on the grill. What is the reason for putting a transverse inline 6 in this car? I love the smooth nature and mellow sound of an inline 6, but it seems that a 60 degree V6 may have been a better choice. |

| to be unique. The Daewoo Leganza wasn't unique enough in the fact that it had a 2.2 4 cylinder when Accord had that 2.3. Now, they can brag and stress over that 2.5 Inline 6 advantage. | |

| a rwd car, with a 5spd naturally. | |
| It would not make good sense to make a RWD car with a 5-Speed from scratch since Daewoo/GM won't dump any money to improve the car from its current standing. They just hope that price will bring buyers. that'll help, but it won't create lines to buy Veronas. Also, the majority of the people buy CamCords, equipped with 4-cylinder engines and automatics. Suzuki/Daewoo went the extra mile by giving away the inline 6 cylinder, which will bring in some buyers and scare away some who are more concerned with fuel economy than beating the CamCord in the next lane or being different than everyone else, so the 6 cylinder is standard idea may or may not work. | |
