      New Guy

      Just picked this thing up uber cheap. I work at a chevy dealership and someone traded it in with a snapped timing belt and bent valves. I bought it, fixed it, now its my DD. I'll be honest, I have no intentions of putting any money into it other than to keep it running. All the mods so far were free just from paint I found laying around the shop. If you couldnt tell by my username my ultimate goal is to buy an STi whenever the next redesign comes around.

      nice Aveo. Welcome. The only thing I'd use an Sti for is parts. for a 1963 VW Beetle project car. Other than that, STi's are of no use or appeal to me.
      - 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Z34 - LQ1 3.4L DOHC 24 valve semi-hemi V6, 210 HP, 215 ft-lbs of torque, 4T60e 4 speed automatic with O/D.... 123,000+ miles. Slowly resto-modding it.
      - looking for a first gen Aveo for a daily driver :D

      looks good, how did you paint your emblem on the back?

      STI's arent too bad, except for the fact that they cost a pretty penny, and anyone who owns one soon turns into an ass for the most part

      I took it off, masking taped the chrome part and painted it flat back. Then put it back on with some emblem adhesive.

      i hear ya about the STi owner thing. There are a lot of Dbags out there but there are plenty of good people that own them as well. If they ever came out with an STi Legacy Id be all over it.
