Gotta disagree with you there, Rabbit. If he test drives an 08+ turbocharged model (comes with seriously upgraded FE5 suspension from the factory) he won't like the aveo afterwards.

But then again, he won't fit into his budget with the turbo cobalt, (they're $10K and up) so I wouldn't even test drive it. And yes, the LS/base models SUCK for handling.

Out of the Aveos, hatchback is a clear winner, rabbit described everything perfectly.
