I'd still drive one, i just wouldn't want to own it
Driving one to me felt like sitting inside of a coffin, way to tight and the A pillar design was terrible. Mack a big guy like you would really have a problem, i worked with a guy who was 6'4" and he could not sit in it with the top up and with it down the windshield header was right in his line of sight. Cool looking yes but I really was rather uncomfertable driving it and I am only 6'.

They replaced it with the Chevy cruze, Both cars look pretty nice but I did like the SS turbo. I do like the look of the 4 door cruze over the cobalt though.

AFAIK it does not.

the Aveo got replaced by Spark

the Pontiac G8 is to come over as a Chevy, the name is unknown atm but i have seen pictures of it.

it wil only be a V8, hopefully they offer an AWD option.

probably something to the effect of the caprice and they might try get the interceptor market again? i know ford uses a Modded SHO for an interceptor now. that and an explorer size suv with the same eco boosted 3.5L V6

seems to be a pretty backed up motor if you ask me, like the next 5.0 from them, that motor was used in all sorts of applications and now they just chopped off two cylinders and replaced them with turbos... seems good but ya know im not usually one to bash ford, but lets see how long they pan out for.
