Who thinks the Chevy Spark would be a cool little car to own?

A pizza delivery boy around here has a red one with two black racing stripes running down the the car. It looks really cool actually. Seems like it'd be the perfect car for the job.

One of these with a manual transmission would be an awesome city car. And I actually fit in this car comfortably, something I can't say about some other small cars (Fiat 500) One of these with a 1.4T from a Sonic could be an Abarth fighter.

No joke, my friend who owns an FR-S has said with a straight face that he's thinking of selling his FR-S and buying a spark in two years or so.

Personally, I could never own one simply because once I'm in a comfortable driving position and i look to my left.....all I see is pillar.

It'd be awesome, because you can thrash it constantly and never break any laws!

That's how it is in almost any car I drive, So I'm used to it.

I don't really see why you'd want one over a Sonic. They aren't THAT much cheaper.

I think it is an awesome little car. A fantastic way to give extravagant style to the masses. Here in Mexico it has become so popular and loved they have a Spark Club which they tour around the country. All the modified Sparks you want. Sparkclub.com.mx . I really hope to drive one, just for the giggles. Here is a mexican commercial, really weird.

That was how my old 1997 monte carlo used to be. I lost the exhaust after rust + railroad tracks meant it decided to just stay where it was at one day and I had a much more open system put on it. I then put on an intake. It was badass. Stomp the throttle and do 0-60 in like 9 seconds but sound like an LT-1 camaro while doing it.

The frontend on the Spark the sell down there looks really strange. Why'd they shorten the grille?

I'd just love to thrash one at 10/10ths because I'd never break a law.

Hahah It is so weird it works. I also love the idea of slow car fast, and It is pretty much the same sensation in Oliver. 2 point slow FTW haha, the fastest I've been is 90MPH

Yeah, but they're smaller and probably a little more fun to drive slow and whip through the corners in the city.

I've got double the engine size you do and make only 195 horsepower moving about two tons. I've only been able to hit 75-80 before it just stops accelerating.

The gauge goes to 100, I WANNA GO TO 100 DAMMIT.

That like my mom's Vue where the gauge goes to 140 but the car is electronically limited to 101. It's like, no you advertise a top speed of 140, I wanna go 140.

My dad's truck goes to 125 but the gauge stops at 120, this is how it should be for every car.

Or like the Ford Mustang gauge at the time they put the 85 Limit. Yeah, it goes as its indicated Officer, as you can clearly see, It shows the limit and no more! Are you saying I am a liar?

I'd rather have an Abarth. Which I actually fit inside, the Spark feels kind of. Well, cheap on the inside. But it isn't and expensive car. So.
