Its a case of Sunfire/Cavy syndrome.
Its meant to battle the Toyota Echo etc, ugly as it may be...its nicer then that new Echo hatchback.

As people climb out of Wave, various cars drive past. I'm sure the last car to drive by is a 96-99 bonnie
Anyone else seen this?

The most interesting car-sibling-relationship IMO are the nearly-identical Chevrolet Trailblazer and Isuzu Ascender. :?:

Funny how GM shares the Envoy with the Isuzu Ascender, and Honda shared the Isuzu Rodeo through their Honda Passport - each pair is practically identical with minimal changes, like badges or grilles. Man, does the Rodeo/Passport'* 3.2L V6 haul *** though, it'* WAY better on the butt dyno than me LN3.
And Saturn'* Vue borrows from the Acura MDX/Honda Pilot with the 3.5L 250hp V6. Not a bad thing, the Vue seriously hauls *** over the 3.0L unit that was previously in there.

*COUGH* Don't tell me you're just now noticing that GM does body sharing! They've done it since. . . .since. . . forever.
Firbird/Trans Am-Camaro
Grand Am-Aurora
Bonneville-Impala-Regal-Park Avenue
Asstech-Rendezvois
Oh yeah, and it'll probly be another 1-2 years before we see that in America. (YEESSSSS!)
Does make you wonder though. . . what if GM hadn't killed Geo. 2005 Geo Metro? 2005 Geo Aveo?
Personally, Aveo looks like a blatent attack on the Focus. They made an even cuter, even cheaper, even girlier compact so they can **** on Ford'* parade IMO.
