Hey GM, have you just completely given up? What is this CRAP?!

 

::sigh:: Looks like there going for the ricer market...

Oh well, at least they're domestic

 

The first looks like the car for some midget ricer, and the second, to me, looks a lot like the subaru wrx

 

The second looks like barbies car when she cant take the convertible.

 

tsk tsk tsk, unbelievable what GM has done to Chevrolet, the name on the classic camaro, nova, chevelle, and corvette

 

Is it just me, or does Paul Walker come into everyone's head when they see things like this ....

 

Sadly I know at least two guys who would buy one. One of them riced out two Sunfires. UGLY! He even spray painted his rusty tailpipe silver instead of getting a new fart car. GM : :notnice:

 

Terrible..

I think chaos would ensue if Ford offered a RiceStang

 

HAHAHA I meant fart can.

 

Galaxie: I'm sure the Eleanor body kit will come eventually.

 

The interior is great, and the Malibu's exterior is well-executed, but they really needed to show it in a different color. The Aveo looks like an even more compact xA or something.

 

That Aveo reminds me of the Renault Clio V6 they have in Europe, its got a rear engine and is pretty wicked(its based of a Golf-like car normally with a 4-banger and front wheel drive)...but I doubt that it will fly in the States

 

i think the top one is supossed to be able to parallel park between all the SUVs.

and yeah, they do look like they're made to be ricers*

*brad, think you could add that to the list of words that your language filter removes? j/k

 

Man, one more scoop on that Aveo and it might not have enough metal and plastic connected to hold itself together. Also, the colors of those two... I have barfed both of those before, I think. Why are so many new cars using the "Alfalfa" antena? Makes it look kinda like a big RC car.

Another spoiler and 5-6 stickers, and the 2005 Mustang might have some serious competition here guys. 7-8 stickers and the 2004 Cobra is done for too.

 

On the front that sort of antennae looks weird, yes, but on the current VW Golf. Omg.. anything but. The current Golf is ssssoooo sexy.

 

Why does a 103-hp Aveo have racing seats?

 

Maybe the Auto-Trans has a nasty 1-2 shift kick!

 

Here's the press release:

<center>CHEVROLET AVEO XTREME CONCEPT IS A HEAD-TURNER</center>
The Aveo XTREME brings big attitude to a small car, with fun and practicality in an eye-catching, head-turning package. It is a tuner concept for the all-new 2004 Chevrolet Aveo, which itself brings style, roominess and a fun-to-drive quality to the entry-level segment. The Aveo XTREME, along with the other XTREME concepts, are showcases for Chevrolet to develop and evaluate a wide range of parts and body kits that allow customers to personalize and customize their vehicle to their individual lifestyles.

If Aveo XTREME customers are looking to be inconspicuous, then this is NOT the vehicle for them. The crisp, clean lines of the production model are accentuated by a custom ground effects package or body kit that adds new front fascia, wide rear fascia with integrated rear fender flares, new rocker panels and a roof-mounted rear wing. Other Aveo XTREME styling elements include clear-lens LED taillamps and a Sparco locking gas cap finished in brushed aluminum. All Aveo XTREME badging is finished in "Fritz-the-Katt Lime Green" exterior color. The result is a small car with a big attitude.

Inside, Aveo XTREME is a youth enthusiast's dream, especially for those who like to entertain their friends. In-vehicle entertainment begins with a Pioneer AVHP 6500 AM/FM stereo that also includes CD, DVD and MP3 playback, along with XM Satellite Radio and a 7-inch touch screen. Still more entertainment is provided by the PlayStation 2 game system that is integrated into the center console. It features wireless headphones and can be enjoyed on the video screens mounted on the belt bar, allowing Aveo Tuner passengers to play PS 2 games or enjoy a movie, while the driver enjoys pleasurable driving.

But Aveo XTREME isn't just fun and games; it has a serious side, as well, evidenced by the number of interior features that exude comfort and performance. The ultra suede Sparco EVO model competition front and rear seats feature a lime green "Aveo" script. The Aveo XTREME's interior is accentuated by the Sparco Mugello steering wheel and cast-aluminum foot pedals.

Further accentuating the performance aspect of the Aveo XTREME Concept is a suspension that has been lowered 2 inches, 12-inch front and rear brakes with dual pistons up front and 18-inch wheels and tires.

Aveo XTREME's interior is finished in optically enhanced Ebony paint.

Chevrolet showcases its XTREME vehicle concepts targeted at the "tuners" or youth enthusiasts. These XTREME concepts are showcases for GM to develop and evaluate a wide range of parts and body kits that allow customers to personalize and customize their vehicles to their individual lifestyles. These factory designed appearance packages feature unique attachments to fit specific models. Included in XTREME packages are such features as body kits or ground effects, revised rocker panels, distinctive lighting, rear wings and larger wheels and tires. Chevrolet and GM Service and Parts Operations are considering offering some of the XTREME appearance packages. Also included in Chevy's XTREME concept vehicle lineup is a greater focus on in-vehicle entertainment, with Pioneer systems that feature DVD, CD and MP3 players, in addition to XM Satellite Radio. The XTREME concept vehicles build on the success of the S-10 XTREME model offering.

Chevrolet continues to expand its line of performance models with SS, Z71 and XTREME.
