Chevrolet Aveo Usados en Venta en Detroit, MI

Pros: Upon purchasing my 2008 Chevy aver ls I had great gas miles. About 35 miles to the gallon. It got my to and from work with no problems and very little gas consumption. It was reliable and I kept up well with the maintenance such as oil changes and such. Cons: the crash rating for this car is very low, if I were to get into a crash with this car. Id be toast. It is a very small car and a very uncomfortable ride. I drove out of state with 2 other passengers and it was not a comfortable ride at all. There is only one arm rest for the driver and no armrest for the passenger. 3 Years after owning this car I keep having electrical problems. The headlights and brake lights went out completely and I opened the hood and realized that the headlight connector- the female part was burned and charred. I replaced that part and 3 months later the other side did it. I replaced that, and now the brights do not work and I have a brake light that is completely broken. I'm in the middle of getting it repaired and currently the mechanic is taking the dash apart to get to the oem module to see if that is the case. I do not recommend buying this car.

I recently purchased a 2009 Chevy Aveo. It's the first newer used car I have afforded since my divorce 13 years ago, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. The Aveo has amazing turn radius. I love that I can whip it into the smallest parking spot from the oddest angel! It's so little it could fit in your pocket, and it gets me great parking almost anywhere. Even though the car appears little outside, there is plenty of room on the inside. My daughter and I took the car from Michigan to Tennessee and then to Louisiana on a road trip recently. We are both above average height, and we were gone for over a week. There was plenty of room for luggage, souvenirs, heads, and legs. My complaints are few and minor and include gas mileage which isn't as great as I would think for a car this small. It has plenty of power, so maybe that's what's bringing the mileage down, but I average 20/25. I would think it would be more. Also, the exterior body parts that are clipped in place pop out when the weather gets cold. Must be the plastic contracts in the cold. At any rate, the bumper caps front and back have a tendency to come out in places from time to time. I could live without that. The Aveo is a great little car. Positives far outweigh the negatives. I bought a 2009 for $4,000, and I was pleased with the price as well. If you're looking for an inexpensive, solid, used car, then give this one a try.
