Good buy for the money.

Vehicle handled well and was reliable. Nice style and features. Excellent gas mileage. Found that car was somewhat too small for my needs. Sold it, but resale value was poor.

Great car

Just bought it....but so far, it meets my expectations. Drives really well, and the interior is also well suited to my needs. The drivability seems just as good also.

Better than I could have dreamt.

This car has become my baby. Meets all of my needs in style, condition, reliability, features. More than worth the money I'm putting in to it.

In love!

First time sitting in this vehicle for a test drive, I knew right then and there I had to have it! This car is compact, yet spacious inside! Sleek and luxurious interior. Has great gas mileage, making it perfect for a daily driver! The seats are comfortable and the dash is easy to read and understand. Not to mention, all the conveniences this car has! Such as OnStar, Rear view camera, LiveLink, WiFi hot spot, Heated seats & more! I felt comfortable instantly and I look forward to driving it every chance I get! I would recommend the Chevrolet Sonic LTZ to anyone!

OK car for good price

Chevrolet SONIC LT meets all your car needs. Lacks engine power. A 2 liter option will make it a great car. It is not a luxury car but has most of the basics with a back camera, touch screen. No navigation.

Perfect in all ways

This car has been wonderful. It's small size makes it easy to park anywhere, but still feels spacious on the inside. I purchased the basic model and it still feels luxurious! Would recommend this car to almost anyone.

2016 Sonic LTZ WOW!

Well I drove a 2001 Chevy Impala until recently and moved to this little jewel! Got a used Sonic LTZ with the 1.4 L Turbo engine and all the nice amenities. It is comfortable, love, love, love the gas mileage and design. It is fun to drive and cruises or accelerated great when I need it. And when I get home I am thrilled to see the MPG trip reading well in the 30s with a combination of highway and city driving. I made a good choice!!!!

Great car for a college student!

This is a great vehicle. It's too small for our family of three, but it was great as a college vehicle.
