Aveo = GM = Followers not leaders

I would NEVER buy an American-made car, (too junky!) and I suspect most people reading this would not either....

I assume by American-made you mean made by one of the American car companies since the Aveo is made in Korea and the Matrix is made in the US....

And if you do mean made by an American car company well then I would LOVE to buy more than a few American-made cars

Not to be a pedantic pain the butt, but the Matrix/Vibe is partially made in the US. The subcomponents are all Toyota and are mostly "globally sourced".

I know this because my employer offers a discount for cars made by their customers. The Unified Plant in Fremont happens to be one of the few places in the US where my employer does not supply subcomponents and hence I would not get a discount.

I guess I should clarify: I only want to buy cars that are made/designed in Japan. I only want to buy cars made by Toyota, Honda, Lexus (in my dreams!)

The fact that GM feels comfortable to put their badge on the Aveo, (complete piece of junk, reminds me of a modern-day Chevette) makes me want to RUN from ever buying anything from GM. Why would they want the Chevy name on such a junky car??

BUY JAPANESE! BUY JAPANESE! BUY JAPANESE!
