New Member 2010 Aveo Sedan in Minnesota

[Brian]

Hi All.
I just bought a 2010 Aveo Sedan for my daily driver due to an awesome deal on model close outs. I was looking for a good commuter as I was offered a new job and would travel about 140 round trip everyday. It is the Auto but I have good reasons for that. I personally love a stick myself but my wife can not drive a manual with leg braces and we need to be able to switch on occasion.

Good news is now that I have the Aveo I can save up to continue modding my '98 Talon TSI AWD. It was hard to risk major mods when the Talon was a daily driver.

I do hope to find some good mods for the Aveo including suspension, intake, tint and wheels most likely.
I am from MN so I hope this will be able to handle the harsh winters here.
I used to tinker with muscle cars and moved onto forced induction and tuning.

Pics to follow.

The other badge is still missing so while I wait for international customer service to come through I ordered wheels and tires! I can't wait to get something decent.
The stock tires were so bad in the cold and snow. I started driving with RWD and bald tires and no ABS so I didn't think a new car could have such crappy tires from the factory. I am relying a little too heavily on my skills. One shouldn't have to pray that much on one commute lol. Thank goodness warm weather finally hit Minnesota.
