But wait, wouldnt it be easier to swap all the aftermarket stuff onto another Aveo with a 4 speed already in it?

It doesn't cost that much to trade a vehicle, if you play your cards right, its way less work, and it works like the factory installed it.

I mean, I can see if these cars were old and classic or something...but there a dime a dozen and plentiful in good shape.

still though, you have to try to sell the aveo, pay the transfer fees possibly, then find another aveo that is decent and pay the fees for that, swapping transmissions isnt easy either i guess

to be honest i prefer to work on the tranny sweap with my friends that to trade my car. I really fell in love with it and i like to set my car myself wth my friends =P

still i love my red aveo
and because the aveo is still new people around here dont sell them cheap

hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaha whew that was funny

the aveo is not an import, therefore it will not hold its value, apparently its not reliable....

i would buy a 95 camry with 400k miles before i would buy a new aveo for the same price
