The Aveo or any other car as a value edition comes with a radio standard.

I think the Aveo5 is a nice looking car,but radio or not,it's not worth $2,000 more than a stripped Versa.
 
I suspect this is an example of GM "old think"...since gas had shot up,raise the price of the gas sippers.....Meanwhile, Nissan finds a way to lower a Versa by $3,000....No matter how stripped this $10,000 Versa may be,it still is a great value...

GM is alot like Microsoft, they can't turn on a dime - in a few model years we'll see GM's answer to the 10K Versa (201x ?)

They used to have a value model priced at $9,900 or something like that. The Hyundai is the least expensive now.

Well I bought one, 2007, and drove many many miles in the two years--70K
 
You have to change timing belt only 60,000--$400 from dealer cost me $40 for Gates belt & 2 hr work. If you don't no motor warranty on belt break and it's an interference motor.
 
Cooling fan shroud wears through radiator you need to add washers and padding if you don't $600 dealer fix after it fails and it will ! I got after market radiator for $124
 
Went through 2 front wheel bearings--100,000 warranty covered both.
 
If you air bag light comes on its the side air bag plugs under the seat wiggling loose. Push them together light will clear it self no need for scanner to clear codes.
 
The dealers put GM power steering fluid in and it will leak and make noise some day. They were supposed to use Dextron VI--works much better. You can't mix them.
 
Seats are made for 100 pounders will rip if your 200 plus.
 
Stock tires mega suck, you wont believe how much quieter and smoother it drives on $500 worth of tires
 
It drives as nice as it did when new and I don't think it's all that bad, realizing it's not a VW Golf but dose not cost $16,000 ether. A little buzzy high speeds 75+
 
I got 36+ mpg on hwy 65-70
 
Use KN oil filters with the 1 inch wrench thing on the end. They are easy to change from top. Run 5-30 Mobile one synthetic. Starts great -20 F
 
There is a cabin filter that filters the air coming out the heater blower motor under the glove box which just pops off--change it. Google for one $46 from GM.
 
Car is very easy to work on all kinds of room under the hood other areas.
 
Hopefully I'll get another 70K out of it with little trouble.

It's hard to say. There are three versions of this car with one being SUV like. I believe this is a smaller car in the micro car size.

That car (the Spark) looks small, like a 4-door Smart car, with no trunk space. I like my roomy Aveo hatchback with adaquate trunk space.
 
The Versa hatchback loaded, costs more than the Aveo hatchback, and the Aveo has a moonroof.

The Spark is supposedly a hatchback, so yes no trunk space (grin) - the Aveo has a (OEM or aftermarket) moonroof (big grin) ?
