  • Festiva/Aspire versus the Aveo

    I had a fart-can flyby by one of these things the other day on the highway. I wonder these things run in the 1/4? I'm pretty sure the festiva would hand out a whoopin.. the aspire depending on it's mood. It looked good though with tinted windows green in color and good looking wheels.. but that fart-can killed it. Anybody take on one yet?

    I drove an auto 4 door rental to Florida and back. It seemed powerful enough for what it was. I would think it would run neck and neck with a comparable B3 Festiva. Take your back seat out and you might beat one. I think they have about 110 hp and weigh in at around 2300 pounds.

            A guy I play hockey with has an '05 four door, 5 speed, overall a pretty zippy little guy.

              A partial verdict is in Aspire vs (I think) auto Aveo.. the Aveo got a good whoopin. After driving the festiva a day or two then going back to the aspire.. the aspire's take off scares the bejesus out of ya if your not expecting it. I think I need to work on the stiva.
