have you seen how much body roll an Aveo has? I can understand parts of his 'point' but such generalizations are uncalled for. For example, you take and aveo and a fit and while the fit may look better doing it, they both have cornering speeds within a few MPH. I have driven 7 different cars at Willow Springs and all of them take turn two between 80-83... well faster going in or exiting, but the sustained speed is about 81-83, this is my old 93 Subaru, 3 other subarus varying from stock 09WRX, 04 WRX Wagon, and an 02 Bugeye, a Mazdaspeed Protege, my daewoo lanos even.

That said on turn 8 it's a high speed, 120 in the Mazda, 95 in the aveo as it simply would not accelerate anymore. When doing passing drills, the guy in the other car told me the entire rear was just moving back and forth... not the body, but the rear torsion beam was moving side to side.. guess they should have installed a panhard bar.

Overall, the suspension is crap on the aveo, the body is soft and getting front struts... well, can we even do that yet? That being said, I didn't buy this car to do track events and it's a lot of fun around town.
