Chevrolet Pimps the Aveo5 for the Middle East

[serega12]

The review is pretty negative of the program, but I think the idea itself is not that bad. The customization by the dealer, as has been adopted widely here in U.S. by Toyota with their Scion line-up. Even though I have to agree with them, I'm not sure who would like the souping up job they did on the car in the pictures. IMO they should have ditched the flames and painted the interior yellow to match the outside or black to match the outside roof/hood, not red to match the flames that look... umm... autozone-ish...

But maybe that's directed specifically for the way they mod their cars there and it's considered "hot" locally or something. Anyways, without further due:

Apparently the Aveo5 can look worse, much worse as GM unshamefully proves. The American automaker has launched a new customization program for the small Chevy that is available across the Middle East. Mods can range anywhere from the simple fitting of alloy wheels and applying stick on decals moving on to more complicated fittings of front bumper kits, side skirts, rear wings, spoilers, hood and roof scoops or even a customized paint job. "We understand some people might want to build on that wonderful package, and there are several options for them to choose from while doing so," commented Karen Toor, Marketing Manager of Chevrolet in the Middle East. And if any of you think that the demonstration Aveo5 pictured above looks decent, we're pretty sure you'll have a change of heart after seeing the car's interior by following the jump below.

Just change the color... and the diamond shaped stitches in the seats and door trim...

i didnt post it because it was ugly, i seen so many aveos on facebook alone, it would take me forever to put up pics but ive seen some pretty amazing stuff in south america and asia

you would think GM would adopt some sort of program over here like this, but then again, they are not marketing to younger people who would opt to use it in the first place

[serega12]

They should be though... I thought it was a neat idea with the Scions when they first announced it: hey, we can mod the car for you and all the mods will be covered under our warranty! Sure our mods will be more expensive than the aftermarket, but they're covered.

[thehunterooo]

thats why 3 out of 4 of the most ticket cars are 3 of the scion models, 98% of owners are 25 and under i would guess

it would be cool to see a program like it though, but how many aveo owners would get an option, a good amount of people who buy an aveo is just looking for cheap transportation, rather people who buy honda and toyota are looking for racecars and JDM stuff YO

I want that program here. It'd just be something to shove in Scion Owner's faces that they're not the only ones who can get a completely tuned car with a factory warranty.

Vw, Nissan, Audi, porsche, ford, and chevy all have some kind of factory or dealer backed tuning already.
