New Guy

[JBurd67]

Hi everyone,
I'm a new guy here, and a new owner of a 2013 Chevy Sonic HB LT, 6MT, 1.4L turbo. Lovin it so far.

I plan on posting pics later as I'm on mobile now (and bored in a presentation...) so I'll get those up soon!

Welcome to the family JBurd67!!

Thanks everyone! Here's the only pic I currently have available. It's black granite metallic paint with factory painted wheels. Just got to 9k miles.

That is the same combination basically I'm looking at getting, looks good. I'm thinking of getting big white stripes and callin' her "skunky"

Lol that's not very appropriate for the Sonic IMO, but funny for sure. Yeah, this combo is pretty hard to come by. It's like an RS without the special trim and upgrades. Love this combo: I definitely like the circle fog lights more, and while I'd like leather, it gets expensive. My interior has all the tech goodies too. Love it.

I am considering used LTZ, did you compare the new flatscreen radio to the older bluetooth enabled? Is it just the wiz-bang or does it actually DO a lot more? I'm not a tech geek but do have about 10 gigs tunes on my droid phone I'd use frequently. Also does it have HD radio? Looking at used you don't usually get a lot of info from those selling, takes time to read manuals... so I'm asking. Thanks!

Same car as mine except u got fog lights. Lucky dog.

Not as must as I could have. This one comes with Bluetooth streaming for Pandora and other radios. It's got an aux jack for your purposes. It also has XM satellite, USB drive music (no CD player). No navigation on the 13, buy 14 has it. Other than that, it's a very simple to use system and syncs very well with anything you him it up to. I'm not sure I'd want to even try the other one, but I'd at least try it if you're considering a different one

The 13 has bringo navigation if u have the touch screen. Not that it's any good but it is available.

Yeah, that definitely helped me. I'm not a huge fan of the fog lights on the RS, but I'm glad I got these. They really help light up the road too. A lot more than you'd think
