Why not put different suspention in g3, bigger breaks, maybe 1.4l turbo engine so that it could be fun to drive. This way G3 would be way better then aveo and you can charge people more for it. Not just another crap like aveo that is just pure junk.

The G3 is based upon the brand new Aveo model that isn't actually available for sale yet, correct? How are you so certain GM has not done any handling tweaks whatsoever? We all realize this car is a stopgap rebadge that wasn't planned from the ground up. How much can you really expect from a roughly $10,000 econobox? I'd NEVER own a car in this class no matter how "well" it handles. Sorry, Fit does not equal "fun" in my vocabulary.
