Super Nice Car

I bought this car about a month ago and now have a little over 400 miles on it. This car has plenty of pep and is really comfy. It has alot more room inside then it looks from the outside. I have the 2LT model and it comes with power everything and remote factory start which really comes in handy with the winters we get. I love this car and very glad I made the purchase!!

Horribe Car

I basically have gone threw several cars i looked at the fiesta and the elantra but i decided to go with the sonic bc it was a great looking design and a good little car well now after just 2000 miles i had a oil leak had to bring it back to the dealer to get that fixed then the engine light came on i had to bring it back again it was the sensor soo all i can say do not buy this car is horrible in the reliability department soo i traded it in and got a fiesta now.

First New Car

This Chevy Sonic is the first new car I have ever purchased (I'm 50 years old) and I couldn't find a better value for the money. I love the look and the feel of this car more than any other I looked at. It has plenty of pickup in the 1.8Liter engine and the interior comfort is great. The best thing I like is that after 7 years of not being comfort behind the wheel of a car my wife can comfortably drive this little car.
