Okay, they stopped selling it new in Canada in 2015, but still. It’s... a car? That I guess drove? I dunno, it arrived with little fanfare and left with even less.

Eh, fuck it, no one cared anyway.

EDIT: It was also available with a manual, which makes roughly three people here sad. Seven seat whatever it was with a stick.

I assure you, it most certainly was more than... eh, you could be right.

They are very popular here in Chile as the Uber car of choice because 7 seater cheap diesel wagon. I would still get a Mazda 5 over this because sliding doors.

I’m guessing in Canada it wasn’t available as a Diesel or a Manual so that makes it a pretty bad choice.

Where were these made? We got them in Europe as well, but when Chevy as a whole was discontinued here (2013?) this was discontinued with the rest of them. The US never got them. Canada is, from a volume perspective, a tiny market. So where’s the rest of its market?

I liked them because they were noticeably longer than a Rondo, allowing for more cargo carrying. They also depreciate like rocks.

Eh 2 guys in the bed of a crew cab Tacoma counts as seven seater with a manual in my mind.

I believe it’s only sold in Chile and Venezuela in South America so two tiny countries plus South Korea so not a big market. The rest of South America get the much worse Brazilian Spin:

I still don’t know why anybody bought one over the Rondo, the other manual Korean minivan.

There are plenty on Autotrader for around $10k right now with not-so-ridiculous mileage. Depending on how much insurance is, it’s not a terrible deal.

I know a lot had weird wiring issues in the back...I’ve seen a lot around here where the rear turn signals would light up whenever the driver would brake with the brake lights... O_o

I knew someone with one. A lot of utility with a low price. And it had a stash spot behind the radio for your weed. Or a cell phone...

For $10k with a stick, it doesn’t seem like the worst decision in the world if you needed a people mover.

And of course any secret compartment is going to be used for drugs.

Yes it is. I had my bum sewed up so I couldn’t smuggle drugs. Haven’t had a decent shit in years. Like custard through a strainer....

Atleast it was manual. And Cruze based.

I always wanted to modify one, Cruze coils fit. Same bolt pattern too.
