Replying to: bpizzuti (Aug 05, 2009 2:27 am) I'm not fan of the Aveo, but that's pretty brutal. Isn't the Aveo the best seller in the subcompact segment? Sales aren't everything, but surely they mean something.

Replying to: bpizzuti (Aug 05, 2009 10:01 am) That can help them sell a Malibu or Tahoe later. It's hard to quantify but there is a value for that.

Replying to: ateixeira (Aug 05, 2009 10:30 am) Besides, wouldn't it be better to make money on Aveo and Cobalt AND make money when they move up to Malibu? If they don't, at least they already made something, right? But right now they aren't. There's a reason they just went through bankruptcy you know.
