this car has everything, even in the lowest max model, apart from the music system.  the power is crazy, it would even make an accord shy, thanx to the turbo. the car is slightly shy of a rocket and has the same acceleration as the bmw 320d. only tht this car is a lot more cheaper give better mileage leave apart the class of bmw and its comfort. 0 -100 in 9 secs. company claims 9.8 but i did it in nine, probably because the engine was tuned in that manner. top speed is easily 200 wrongly claimed as 180 by the company. very comfy, now for the bad aspects, octavia give a better mileage but apart from tht this car rules every aspect, i fail to understand y it hasnt made a boom, probably becasue of slightly older technology engine, but tht matters negligiably. mileage is around 14 if properly driven and can even go to 15 the problem is tht with such a monster u cannot help but indulge in the sheer pleasure. the another con is the wierd steering, it is huge, would have love it if it was somewhat similar to the civic.
realy amazinf car and good value for money, the salesmen at chevy are not very well informed about the car hence probably unable to convince and attract customers but this car is an excellent buy.

    I agree vid u Asad... the steering is too old fashioned... and the below average audio system is a real shame on such a premium car...

    I agree to these comments both the steering & music system dosent suit the vehicle of such a price .It really needs to be improved.
