I get between 29 and 32 in town , thats not that bad.

Yeah but for an entry level econobox it should do more like 40. My 90 Camry got better gas mileage than your car, by 2-3 mpgs. http://****************.com/smile/emthdown.gif

The new sedan, which was developed in Korea by GM Daewoo Auto & Technology (GM Daewoo) with assistance from the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC) in Shanghai, will be rolled out in more than 120 countries and territories.

That probably includes the US.

*yeay*
Hyundai/Kia may be making HUGE strides in quality, etc, but Daewoo is still in the 80s/90s Korean "Americans wouldn't know quality if it ran right over them, so we'll just sell 'em crap" mode, funded by "we've been selling 'em crap for 100 years" GM...
I would not buy a Daewoo, or any non-Corvette Gm product from the US or Korea if my life depended on it...and it just might.

Well, yeah, that's a definite possibility, but my confusion is that we already get the Korean-built Aveo. China already got a better-looking Buick Century than we did, so it wouldn't surprise me if we got stuck with the non-facelifted Aveo too.

That would suck, this Aveo is much better looking than the one we get. Maybe we'll get it in an upcoming mid-cycle refresh.

I doubt they will make much of a difference globally. Besides, the article doesn´t say that all Aveos will be made in China, only that the Chinese ones will be made by Shanghai-GM. The majority of the export Aveos might still come from Korea.

now the press release saying how Chevy would be creating a "brand image" makes sense...I like the direction.
