      Giugiaro Disowns Redesigned Aveo

      Any of our European members see this blurb in the latest issue of Auto Motor & Sport magazine? Renowned designer Giorgetto Giugiaro bashed the latest facelift GM performed on the North American Chevrolet Aveo and Korean Daewoo Gentra X.

      whether he likes it or not, i wouldn't have bought the Aveo if it wasn't for the redesign. I'm just happy i got in one before the year's price hike.

      Re: Giugiaro Disowns Redesigned Aveo

      Europeans generally consider the Lacetti to be Giugiaro's most attractive design for Daewoo. Unlike the Kalos, Daewoo actually allowed him to have final say on all design changes made for the production version.



      I understand Ford is also giving Giugiaro and Italdesign final say on the new '09 Mustang, which will be based on his concept below.

      Silence is golden. Duct tape is silver!!
      04 Aveo (mine gone but never forgotten)
      07 Aveo 5 (wifes car gone but never forgotten)

      12 Cruze Eco 6MT
      (46mpg daily? Holy crap!)
      12 Sonic 2LT (Wifeys new wheels)

      Same here!!! I cant stand the new design. It's like a cross between an Aveo and an Uplander. Too yawning and ugly...
