Review: I just bought my 2005 Aveo LT 5 days ago and I love it so far. I bought the Aveo because I needed a economical car and so far the gas mileage is good. I did test drive a Echo and I did not like the ride as much as my Aveo. When I went car hunting my...

Pros: Excellent gas mileage. Able to park in tight spaces. Quick and agile.

Cons: No power locks, windows or cruise control.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this car to someone who makes long commutes and wants to ride in style, comfort and save money.

Cons: Unsteady in strong winds. Poor hold button positioning.

The Bottom Line: Good value for the money. Good quality. Quiet. Roomy. Fairly economical. Will haul big items. Look at the Aveo before spending the extra money on a Toyota Echo.

Pros: Great gas mileage, versatility of a hatchback, roomier than it looks, peppy, can park anywhere!

Cons: The ride can be a bit bumpy and there's a small blind spot.

The Bottom Line: I would definitely recommend the Aveo for those who want a lot of car for little money. Be forewarned, though: the extras can jack up the price.

Review: We did online research and found this exact car at a local dealership so we knew up front what was available. We owe a lot to the dealership for getting us in a car--our credit ain't the best. But they probably wanted to get rid of the vehicle: it's...
