"Chevy Sonic" to replace Aveo name? "Chevrolet Sonic" trademark applied for by GM

[Z34guy]

either you liked the geo, or pedicures and shopping.. i went with geo.

Volkswagen tired bringing back the rabbit name for the mk5.. the mk6 is a golf again.

I liked the new rabbit.... one of the few VW's I like.

i was still called golf everywhere else.. the name "rabbit" started in north america only in the first place.

So, predictions for Aveo -> Sonic -> Aveo ?

I realize this, but I never liked the Golf name... or the car's looks, engines or dynamics. That changed when the MK 5 came out and I loved it. Then they ruined it with the MK6. The ONLY MK5 engine I don't like is the 2.0L Turbo from the GTi.

the cobalt ss 2.0 turbo is almost a copy of the vw 2.0t

my prediction (hope more than prediction) is the aveo name stays. but it will probably be changed..

why dont the bring back the spectrum name? thinking about it briefly. is the chevette the last american built small chevy? or am i missing one? maybe bring back the name of whatever the last american built small car was.

sonics an ok name. too bad it wont be fast like him

but it does work well for nemys w/ turbo!!~

i think we should change the picture on the top of the forum because that car is now known as the sonic :P...... we need a nice first or second gen aveo up there

Shush. It's still going to be called the Aveo in other countries... I think.

And one day in the near future, we'll have the rotating image of members' rides back up there. I'm still waiting for the theme designer to fix something for us.

+1 for this! aveo will not die... people in other countries wont have sonic, they will have aveo and then the people who buy sonic here will be a very small crowd and then they will want to rebadge to aveo :P

Exactly. I like to call it Honda Type R syndrome. XD

Took these pictures with Ari. Saw it once when I was donating blood. I wanted to wait and smack the owner for being a moron.
