GM and Daewoo sell quite a few of these in developing nations. I've read the suspension is well suited for deeply rutted roads or lack of roads. In real life the darker colured ones look like cockroaches on wheels.

I'd like to see a pic that doesn't look like it's been taken with a fish eye lens and of a car that isn 't that awful green color.

Every Matiz, I have ever seen in a developing country is painted some shade of a loud 80's flourescent color, except the black ones.

Sadly enough, I'm referring to the mens section, how many times are they going to try and sell us on the idea that "real" men can wear these bright colors??

Even more sad, all it'll take is a popular rapper to be bold enough to wear those things in one of his video's to start a trend.

Proof?

Do you know me? Its known that my current sneaker/timberland collection totals over $1200. I dont do the shoe lace thing though. Too much extra to pay for em.

I have three pairs of shoes and that is it.

I have a pair of Tennis shoes I wear just about every day. I have a pair of Timberland boots to wear when going out and a pair of old tennis shoes for Paintball, Mechanicing or anywhere else that involve getting dirty.

This one's a Daewoo.

This one's almost as ugly.

I miss the Metro. I miss the 3 cylindar engine.

I guess GM rebrands the ones pictured and sells them as the Chevy Aveo/Pontiac wave up here.

Yeah, it's an Aveo here, too. That's why I used that example. You'll notice the ones in that picture actually have a bowtie and not that ugly daewoo...thing.

We don't get the wave.I'm impressed. The grille is simply different plastic. I was expecting the signature massive bulging Pontiac grille somehow worked into that car's lower bumper. Still uglier than the Aveo though.

Se, I don't get it. If I wanted a POS Korean car, I'd go to a Kia dealership.As I said, I miss the Metro. Bulletproof, gutless, tiny, but great milage, a car you didn't worry about much, you just got in and drove.Somehow the Aveo missed that mark completely.Korean cars have not yet redeemed themselves to me. They're like...diet cars. Equivalent to Saturn at their beginnings. While they are now fairly reliable, they still aren't everything that even budget Japanese cars like Suzuki are (though I'd never consider a Suzuki either).
