How can you be disappointed by the Aveo? It's like being disappointed that a truck stop hooker gave you herpes. Yeah, it's a drag, but it's not like you couldn't see it coming.
I hate to say it, but the new Camaro is up there for me. As is the new Dodge Challenger. Both had been dead for a while, an extremely long while for the Dodge, and both had tons of hype leading up to their release. And when they finally hit the dealers, neither was all that great, to be honest. Both were being boasted as having big V8's and IRS, but they both weigh as much as a small apartment building, neither have particularly good handling or steering. The good old Ford Mustang with its good old solid axle was just as good in terms of handling and had much better steering. It really wasn't the sort of epic come back that most people were expecting. And now both parent companies are in the toilet.
^This. I'm tired of hearing about the goshdarn retro-throwback-muscle-car-blah-blah-blah-omg-yay and they're all still...relatively new. Even the most tolerable of the three--the Mustang--is kinda bloated-looking nowadays. (Seriously. Give the Fords some Gas-X.) Give me something new and interesting to gawk at, for pete's sake. And this time, please, I don't care if you have to bring Colin Chapman back from the dead as a weight-eating zombie--don't make the new and interesting shiny things weigh as much as a city block.I hate to say it, but the new Camaro is up there for me.
