How much $ do you have into your ride?
I bought my Aveo in 2007 with 11,000mi for 8,400 and added cc and ac (which I don't use) for 1000. Ialso bought 80k mi touring tires for 250 bucks. K&n for $50, It now has 66,000 and nothing but oil changes every 9,000mi and gas. Total= $9700 ..I knewnothing about Aveo's and probably could have gotten a new one for close to that, but not with ac and cc. Happy with it too.

i dont know what svm means. it is a stripped car, but cars are generally cheaper when you by them around certain holidays, like memorial day.
crank windows, no a/c but i can call onstar to unlock the doors!
-
Re: How much $ do you have into your ride?
i really confused my salesman when he was telling me all the benefits of onstar and i said "if it doesnt have power doors how do they unlock it?" we then asked them to unlock it from the parking lot.. they insisted they did.
-
Re: How much $ do you have into your ride?
^^ lol thats funny. can onstar shut off the car?? or turn it on??

my key can unlock and lock the door, but inside the car there is no lock or unlock button. perhaps thats what confused you.

no, but onstar can cut the power down, but its a fully functioning vehicle. they probably dont want to cause an accident. onstar can also give me gps directions, order my pizza, and suck my penis.
did i mention i still have crank windows?
-
Re: How much $ do you have into your ride?
when my car's fuel pump went and i coasted to a stop i hit the button and ask the operator if the police told her to shut me off. After a pause she asked if i was being followed by police. I replied, "how can i be followed if i am no longer moving.."
I had to press the button again after that.
oh, btw you have to pay a lot extra for those features.

so when you call onstar are they coming out to put a key in your door?
you have plungers in the tops of the doors, no power locks. they can not do it.

i know on my key, its like a VW, it has the unlock and lock buttons on it. so thus, it has power lock and unlock doors. so, yes they can.

Re: How much $ do you have into your ride?
so you have power locks, that changes things. i do not.

Re: How much $ do you have into your ride?
OnStar is a joke when it comes to a car that shuts down on it's own. My wife remote-started her HHR with one of the doors open. Then she shuts the door, presses the unlock button, opens the door, and the car freaks out probably thinking that it's being stolen and shuts everything down. Power locks don't work (you can still manually pull the knob up and get out), power windows don't work, key doesn't turn the starter over... The only thing that works is onstar to call them and find out what's up. We call them just to hear again and again, "I'm sorry, but I can't run diagnostics on your car when the engine is not running"... "I know it's not running, ma'am, it shut itself off"... well, can you start it? "No, I can't, can you guys unblock the security system?... pause "we can't diagnose what's wrong with it with the engine off... we can have it towed to the nearest Chevrolet dealer or we can just transfer you to their tech department"... so they did.
Some girl picks up.... I told her the same exact story about what just happened and at the end asked "can you guys walk me through unblocking the security system?"... "sir, what lights come on when you turn the key?" "the usual, airbag light, check engine light, ABS light, and now the security (padlock) light stays on too"... "check engine light and ABS lights are on... I think something is wrong with your brakes, sir! =D> =D> #-o "REALLY?".... "So can you walk me through unblocking the security system then????!!"
"The only thing we can do for you, sir, is have it towed to our dealership's service department"... #-o "and what will they do? can you walk me through the steps?"... "I'm sorry sir, at this point the only thing you can do is have it towed here, would you like us to call the towing company?"... "No, thanks, i will take care of it"...
Took the leads off the battery, touched them to each other... left them off for 30 minutes - and when I put them back on it worked as well as new.. just had to reset my stations and set up my equializer...
I don't see a reason to pay them for that kind of service...

Can't believe y'all have not learned that we never state this information and we never add the stuff up. Wives get pissy and girls get jealous.
-
Re: How much $ do you have into your ride?
hahahaha not jealous just mad the fact you spend all that time and money in the car when you should spend all the time and money with us.....but ive always been a car girl and like to spend all my time around cars than doing anything else. i grew up that way. so its no issue to me. if my hubby spends just as much on my own car....we can be civil.

Sometimes it's good to do for ourselves though. Puts things into a perspective. And as far as my wife, she usually doesn't go on forums. 8)

When I bought my Aveo, it started at around $15,000 for it being a 1LT, then bumped up nearly $300 for the "factory-installed" graphics, and some more money for the extended warrenty to make it total out to around $17,000. The only thing that I have bought were a set of 5 mats for $120 (which were cheaper than GM's set of 4 of $120). I also ordered a set of splash gaurds, but I ordered for the sedan set instead of the hatchback set, so that order was returned.
-
Ok let's see
2008 Aveo5 SV 6500 + old car trade in valued at 300 so $6,800
Engine Ground kit - Had laying around so free
Removed fender resonator- Free
195/60/14 Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires - $500
Third Light Overlay - $10
Detailed the car - $140 (never do that at Simoniz in Dubuque, IA again, a lot of minor damage done to my vehicle.)
Oil & filter Changes, Rotations & Balance, And Gas I don't really keep track of. I know I changed a headlight bulb that was like $10 but again that's not something I worry about.
So the total so far is roughly. . . $7,450 This is an estimate Give or Take $100
Future plans are 2.0L engine, Suspension upgrades And Rims. I Also want to do a full LED conversion and lose the badges. Debating Projector Headlight's with HID kit, If I do it I will re-route driving lights, to a decent set of Fog/Driving Lights.
