tomslik....pay your way to montana? interesting idea.

Look at the Scion, let me know what you think

gonna, i'd feel better with a toyota than a daewoo...
did drive a aveo, not a bad little car but it needs about 300 more horses;)

looking at a scion xa,prolly next weekend and got a pm into carps,too.

============= dont use the words daewoo & toyota in the same sentence with Carps

Here in Canada we have the 3 imports the Optra,Aveo and Epica.
We were told by GM that the Aveo was only released in the US because of concerns about the UAW and job protection.
That said the Aveo is the best car by far of the 3.
The Epica is a complete disaster. The aveo has been on the road in South Korea for several years so I think they've pretty much got it sorted out.
We have sold around 10 Aveos with no real problems other than the dash clocks reset themselves to 12 over night.
But the fix is done for that.
I'd get the manual trans one just for the fuel economy.
One of our older Techs bought one for his wife and they really like it.
I know it is the one I'd buy if I was looking for a compact at a reasonable price.

What's wrong with the Epica? It's built by Suzuki and I think the others are too?

No they're all built by Daewoo who GM bought out.
The Epica has been plagued with Engine failures and Electrical faults.
Several that i know of have been bought back by GM due to all the porblems and a severe lack of spare parts

Daewoo must have something to do with Suzuki who makes the Verona which is the same car as the Epica. Who knows now adays. :?

I looked it up on the net.... I thought all Scion's were the same boxy vehicle.

wow , a 1496cc engine. Is that enough to power the vehicle at your altitude ?

I have never heard of " Variable Valve Timing with intelligence " .  Sounds interesting

yeah, it runs pretty good and it's an automatic too.
needs cruise control though....

THAT you'll have to ask Carps about.
it's prilly the ONLY thing here that has any intelligence;)
