New Member 2010 Aveo Sedan in Minnesota

Hi All.
I just bought a 2010 Aveo Sedan for my daily driver due to an awesome deal on model close outs. I was looking for a good commuter as I was offered a new job and would travel about 140 round trip everyday. It is the Auto but I have good reasons for that. I personally love a stick myself but my wife can not drive a manual with leg braces and we need to be able to switch on occasion.

Good news is now that I have the Aveo I can save up to continue modding my '98 Talon TSI AWD. It was hard to risk major mods when the Talon was a daily driver.

I do hope to find some good mods for the Aveo including suspension, intake, tint and wheels most likely.
I am from MN so I hope this will be able to handle the harsh winters here.
I used to tinker with muscle cars and moved onto forced induction and tuning.

Pics to follow.

Here it is bone stock. Hopefully not for too long though:

The Talon has been nothing but reliable. But I love a good DSM story. It's part of the charm.

My wife and I are on that same dividing line. She has the Hatchback while I drive the Sedan.

so you like a little junk in the trunk, while she does not.

Talons are a bitch and most require alot of maintenance, especially when being modded. But damn are they quick! Id love to have my talon back, even if it was in pieces again, just to build it with as much new parts and cleanup to be done as possible, just so I can drive it for an hour and do it all over again :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: jk

Welcome to the board, lets see the talon while we are on the subject :D

Here's a couple over the years.

the holden badge is a nice touch, i opted to have a daewoo badge paint matched

The other badge is still missing so while I wait for international customer service to come through I ordered wheels and tires! I can't wait to get something decent.
The stock tires were so bad in the cold and snow. I started driving with RWD and bald tires and no ABS so I didn't think a new car could have such crappy tires from the factory. I am relying a little too heavily on my skills. One shouldn't have to pray that much on one commute lol. Thank goodness warm weather finally hit Minnesota.
