The Aveo sure gets a bad rep in the interwebs; but I sure like mine. Wish I had found this forum a lot earlier. I'd welcome a gathering some time to swap stories.
I'm getting mine back from the body shop tomorrow, so ill definitely be doing a lot of driving lol. If you wanna meet up tomorrow I'd be fine with that. I don't have too many mods done, but just a few that matter lol. Window tints, lowering springs, intake and 2" straight pipe with muffler of course, and I've got it tuned. Unfortunately mine is just an automatic. I'd be interested to know everyones age, just to see how much variance we have in the aveo community. I'm 21 myself.
