2008 Chevrolet Chevy C2 B 1.6 SFI from Mexico
Summary:
Excellent
Faults:
Shifting can be hard sometimes.
No rims on the package - comes with standard covers, which can be easily stolen.
Uncomfortable back seats (space issues, mostly).
Basic set of tools.
General Comments:
It's not my dream car, but it sure does pack a lot of power with that little 1.6 engine. Acceleration from 0 to 100kph is pretty smooth, and the car handles extremely well both in the city and in the highway.
Fuel consumption is excellent, I have the tank filled up every two weeks or so for daily tasks (average daily running distance is 28km, that's a 9-10km/L performance). In terms of gas consumption, the Chevy C2 is only beat by the out-of-production VW Beetle. But given that the former is bigger and more comfortable than the latter, this is a fair trade-off.
I am definitely happy with this car and with the dealership service. Should you consider buying one, do it without hesitation, because it will save you a lot of money.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
