I was looking for an econo car that would be priced right and perform like a champ I must confess I found it in my '06 Aveo LS...5sp man w/ 5doors..very roomy...very nice and quiet ride @75mph :) A lot better than the 93 Swift and 95 Honda Civic EX 2Door. I got it 1/22 and so far been shocked at what value this ride has been...in 5 years I hope to tell you more...but so far....a top notch car at a top notch price....I would recommend this car to anyone on a budget or anyone looking for a point A to point B w/o the stress of a Geo or a Suzuki on the freeway!!

I purchased my Aveo in 2013, with 63,000 miles on it, and now have had it for six years.....I live in a rural area, and 95% of my driving NOT stop and go..........I followed the maintenance schedule and have zero issues..........I now have 350,000 miles on her, and the only thing I have replaced is the brakes. I have the four door LS model with a hatchback. And, I am happy to report that she is doing just fine. Had to replace my little lady's suspension, and everything else is great.....................don't hesitate in purchasing this little auto "that could", you will easily get your moneys worth, even if it has 250,000 miles on! It will run for you up another 50,000 miles no problem..........simply follow the book as far as maintenance and you will have no problems!Now 355,000 miles and still running strong, still burns no oil, I did have to replace the crankcase cover, and that's it.............shocks are still originial, and the stick shift console is not working, great little car.....................BUY ONE YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.............averages 33 mpg, I plan to buy another one when my little white auto hits 400,000, try and find something with less mileage, say, 225,000 and start all over again:+)...........Have a great 2023 mates:+)

I've put 87,000 miles on this car in 3.5 years. I'm its only driver. I've put a 6' ladder in this car (and closed the hatch), weedwacker, furniture, a dishwasher, several loads of stone, went on a 2,500 mile road trip. I drive 2 hours a day highway. Drove 6 hours in a blizzard yesterday. I've tested this car pretty good. Roads around here ate up the factory suspension. Changed timing belt at 70,000. This is our "truck". I used it as a landscaping car this summer. Fits a big cargo load with seats down. Love the LT! I will drive it to 200k! I can whip this car around country roads fast enough to induce involuntary screams from passengers, but braking and handling always compensate
What gas mileage?

I bought my car in 2006, new off the lot. I didn't like the skimpy tires, so had new ones put on with more grip. The air conditioner flaps always shut down from day 1. Drink holder is a joke. Too small and over the ashtray and junk holder. Seats are too narrow and edges curve inward on my husband's shoulders..causes pain for him to ride in it. Gas mileage BOMBED after a few years,lost pick up and tends to jerk slightly when accelerating. Body does get small dents and scratches easily, even after the 200$ extra coating they sold me for the paint job. Clutch now seems to be not engaging smoothly or wearing out. Needs alignment often. 30k miles on it so far.
Good ,But Not GREAT.

I bought this car at the height of the high gas prices. Expected HUGE gas savings. BUT I have never gotten better than 18mpg in the city,and that is driving no 'pedal to the metal' ever. 'Fun driving' drops it even more. I got better mileage in the truck I traded in for this car. Mechanically it is solid. But trim pieces fade fast,paint is easily scratched,hatch release lever has broken 10 times! All 'fixed' under warranty. But now warranty is gone,and minor things are wearing fast. Nothing major,yet. Kind of fun to drive. Easy to add options that 99% other Aveos don't have. Like FACTORY side molding, tint,aftermarket wheel covers,and graphics kits. Easy to park,and lots of storage in the HB.
