Default New Chevrolet Cruze



The LT versions come with a 1.4L turbo getting nearly 40mpg and looks pretty cool. Standard with a manual 6-speed, Z link rear suspension set-up. I think this could be a hit...I just wonder if its fwd or rwd(more than likely fwd)

the loaded one they tested I read somewhere was like $22K. So thats not bad. The commercial about it I saw was tight. Had the cruze sneaking around everywhere and then it would show a civic si....at the end it said yea were civic hunting!


edit: they START at $16,995


and dont know if this is smoke from a reveal or rear tire smoke....(bc i figured with chevy it would be fwd)

I think the front resembles a mix between BMW and Maxima. The volt looks damn near identical to the Acura TL. Both cars look nice.
