I beg to differ. I like the Cruze. I'd buy one. But it's far too costly for what you get. You can get much more car for less money. THAT's the problem. And THAT's why I won't be buying one when it comes time to trade in this Spring..

when i got my balt, i had to take it to the dealer on the 4th, 8th, 12th, and 16th day of ownership. The last one was my fault for a bent rim. The sales guy was getting pissed that my car had so many problems. Blown window motor and 10*F outside fml

I think they should've kept running the sunfire/cavalier. Great car IMO. I've had the old 2200 from my dad and it pulled 2 seadoos w/trailer around town i was getting looks from everyone.

Afer I purchased my own 02 sunfire with the 2.2 ecotec in it. Great engine. I boosted w/ gm supercharger @ 120k now it has 245k. Never had an engine problem yet, feed the ecotec good oil and it'll treat you good, im planning on going 300k+ with the car. And remember 2002 the ecotec was put in the sunfire/cav half way thru the year, 1st year motor and it's still givin it. I don't baby the car either. Picture a 21 year old with his 1st bought standard car that's boosted :p Damn 170kph limiter screwed me many times in races :p

I always dream of the cobalt LNF motor in a 2605lb sunfire.

For the same price as an LT or eco Cruze, I can get a new Malibu and only lose 3mpg.

And the 'Bu is alot bigger.

bigger, louder, lower quality interior, less air bags, less safety features, worse rear visibility, not as comfortable seats, worse handling, older design.

There is more than a 3mpg loss, IMO.

lol- it's a beautiful car that's a given. Even compared the a 'balts base engine it's slow as hell though. It's this big, expensive, cushy thing.

I'm new here so I'm gonna assume you used to own a 'balt.
