You actually find this car appealing? Yuk! It's uglier than the new Vitz.

I certainly wouldn't buy one, but I wouldn't say it's ugly. This and the new Yaris are both very good looking. The best looking car in the segment though is the Fiesta.

Just saying that you gotta appreciate how big of an improvement this car is over the Aveo, the worst car of the last 10 years.

Why the emphasis?

I see what you're saying... It does look pretty similar to what they are selling right now... Doesn't seem too radical of a change on the exterior.

+1. I swear the Aveo and this new Sonic are so hideous. I mean, what's up with the front end on this thing?

No aspect of either car is appealing to me. No, wait there is one good thing about them; they make the Yaris look sooo much better in comparison!

Why do I keep seeing pictures of the interior of the sonic with a 6 speed manual when it will not be available with such?

Where did you hear it wouldn't be available with a six-speed?

The information in the OP.

Shifting duties are handled by either a five-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic gearbox.

I bet fuel economy would suck as Aveo (32 at best).

sorry, have you been keeping an eye on the impreza for the last decade?
