      As long as it has an American badge, he doesn't care. I come from a "buy American" family.

      NYChevoo,
      Huge thanks for the plug and wire info. The deal on the mint 2009 Aveo5 LT is still pending. I made an offer, but the dealer, as of today, has not accepted it. I also noticed that the 2009 with 16.534K miles is no longer on AT, but the Aveo is still listed in the inventory. Dealer is asking $11k.I would have to fly to Cincinati, rent a car and drive to Whitewater Mtrs in west Harrison, IN. Take a look, if you have time, and tell me what you think. Don't buy it!!! Driving that beauty back to KC, then later to AZ would be a pleasure, Be well!

      Depending on your purchase n ur goals forgo the K&N. Build ur own intake- a 90°good bend, a 6" tube ,cone filter,and some couplers and u have a professional looking intake and will love the added throttle response,hp, and cool sound.
