The sun roof. I was sure that I didn't want one. Now that I have it, I love it!

Instead of dreaming up new gas guzzling muscle cars, someone had enougj forsight to try a more econimical approach. The amount of horsepower they can crank out of these Ecotec engines, with minor mods is incredible. Now just a little more improvement on the automatic transmissions used with the 4's , and we'll be set for the future.
LOL, yeah...the instant mpg is great for those that like 36mpg along with 260hp. Lets all be serious here...260hp is noting to be bragging about. But 260hp and 36mpg on long flat highway runs is ^&$%# impressive.
So my vote is for the instant mpg

- being the only one (on the street, in any given parking lot, at work, etc.)
- the good sized sunroof
- the instant mileage counter
- the comfy leather seats (the leather feels upgraded for this segment)
- watching older gents go ga-ga (if only they were 25 and female!)

Do you drive on 271? Do you watch out for that 24/7 cop at Wilson Mills?


Oh and yeah, Does this car really exist? It's a Chevy? Must be a sign of the apocalypse!

Talking

i bought mine without knowledge of the remote start until, when i went to pick it up. I was smokin' a stoggie with the dealer, and then the car started up. My mouth dropped, and i began to look for someone in the car but the dealer had the fob in his pocket. I had no idea! It made the deal 100% better, even though the deal had already been completed. lol

OK, so I'm weird. For me, it's the two hidden storage bins behind the rear seat. Love having a place to keep owners manual, locking lug nut key and other items that need to stay in the car, but that I don't need on a regular basis. Frees up the space in the glove box for important things (gum, sunglasses, registration and insurance cards).

Since I didn't know this until after I purchased, mine would be the front passenger seat back laying flat down and presto you have a tray or table.
