Chevy 8 Page ad in Autoweek

[laborsmith]

The new Autoweek (09/19/2011) has a nice presentation of the Sonic in an extended ad from Chevrolet.

Also, Autoweek has a nice writeup of a production Sonic.

By the way, notice the curb weights at the end of the article.

So others don't have to load the page if they just want the weight:

Curb Weight: 2,721 lb sedan; 2,684 lb hatchback

Also it seems this just uses the 1.8L for the economy as it lists 25/35mpg.

since it appears Mark Vaughn copy and pasted chunks of that "article" verbatim, im doubting those are correct, especially since the weight has already been determined to be higher than that from the information directly from the door jam of purchased sonics.

overall a sloppy effort. he states the turbo is the model to get then (as you stated) lists the fe numbers from the 1.8.

Yeah, I thought it came off a little strange. Also when Laborsmith wrote that there was an 8-page ad, that was for the physical magazine, correct? This just seemed like an excerpt.
