Not unintentionally accelerating since 2009!!!!
^^^^^ Please explain your enthousiasment.
Great Mileage, better build quality, new engines, awesome interiors.
Honestly it could be the first small car GM has gotten right all around in forever.
I'm never enthusiastic about these things because every time a new model comes out everyone says it "Raises the bar of what can be done" or that it's the "Best car *insert manufacturers name* ever built" or some other BS that years down the road will seem ridiculous in hindsight.
It was said about every small GM car ever built including the J-body. They said it about the Saturns, said it about the Ford Tempo, said it about the K-Car, they said it about the AMC Eagle 4x4. They said it about
everything.
Hell, they even said that about the Eagle Premier. How it would have saved AMC if only it'd been released earlier. This car:
Really? A car so ugly and generic that they should have simply called it the Eagle Sedan. It was expensive, cheap looking, and just wrong in every way. Yet, they still praised it. Even as they struggled to sell more than 50 cars a year (All sold to die hard AMC buyers who wanted the last of the breed).
In fact, using memory, I find it hard to remember of any car that wasn't called a "Thriumph" upon it's release apart from obvious junk like the Ford Probe or the Diesel GM cars of the early 80's or the Cadillac 8-6-4. Cars that were so bad that anyone praising it would have been laughed out of journalism school.
So is this gonna be good? Well... It's ugly and it's a Sedan. So it's not off to a good start. If I wanted to buy something that looks like a taxicab in Bruje or a car poor people buy to shuttle kids to school, I would be a car enthusiast. I'd be a lame-O. The engine choices are much better than current and it does have a nice interior, but I like sexy sporty cars, not cars that librarians and schoolteachers drive.
Show me a coupe with RWD that's completely impractical and then maybe I'll get more of a stiffy.
Well the Alpha platform is still on. Think of it as Kappa but longer
I like the 4x4 stance it's got going on. Way to stay with tradition GM.
I remember the hyped over the Saturn Ion.. How GM worked for years on the car, etc. I regretfully bought into it and bought one. It turned out to be the biggest POS I've ever drove. I had a hard time keeping the interior panels from falling onto the floor, it was that bad.

If it looks anything like the Malibu, I'll end up getting one...
Its light years better than the current cobalt 4 door, and it has a pretty cool engine, a 1.4 Turbo ecotec making 140hp, crazy fuel mileage
1989 Turbo Trans Am #82, 2007 Cobalt SS G85
i cant wait for this car to get here. i just wish they did something with the front grill something dont look right. my friends thinking of geting one when they come out.
UGLY 2/10... I'll give it two becuase the harbor background looks nice haha.
Looks like a "CHEAP", Gm "COOKIE CUTTER" platform, that will be "REBADGED", then "Whored", then "DISCONTINUED" in a few years.
As Gm's rich heritgae shows... thats if people choose to even by there cars anymore. (Massive load of GM cars on import lots being traded for import's themselves).
Don't even have to bring up resale value anymore it;s so bad haha.
" Aint nothin' but a Peanut!"
i like the first pic better, lol.

The J was a GREAT platform when it launched. THE only problem was GM KEPT IT FOR nearly 25 years !!!!!!!!!!!. GREAT for its time, but by 1991, GM still kept whoring it threw production.
PS 80 % of GM's car market are people looking for boring, practical vehicles to drive. IT is a huge reason the Impala is still in the top 5 sellers.
My Cav
I give up...
i'm buying a VW those people love trees, so they should love eachother too... "Andy"
