I had sometime last week to look at the new Sonic (I didn't want to because I just bought my Aveo and was afraid I would be blown away by the new Sonic). Well I would agree with the above post, it was a nice car, and might even be better then the Aveo for looks and performance, but I like my Aveo interior. I'm a big guy, and the Aveo seems to fit me better. The Sonic added more cup holders and wider door storage, but that made the room my legs had tighter. I felt a little cramped in the drivers seat between the wider door, and the larger center counsel. The Sonic had a lot to offer, but I'm not upset with my purchase of the Aveo. Maybe when I'm looking for a new car 4-5 years from now I will relook at Sonic, but I'm not in a rush.
