Chevy Sonic Registered Owners Official Thread

Since I have posted in the ordered thread and in the black wheel thread I figured I would post up here in this thread.

Inferno Orange Metallic LTZ hatchback with 1.4 liter, standard, black wheels and the lighter colored interior.

Bought it in Vestal, NY at Matthew's Chevrolet (and all things GM). They have done me very well as a first time customer and Chevy owner in general.

I have a LT 1.4 liter turbo, automatic hatch in Inferno Orange Metallic with the cruise plus connectivity package. I got it at Williams Chevrolet in Traverse City, MI. Well technically I don't have it yet. It was in their online inventory, but it's actually on a hauler somewhere. It's running late, it was supposed to be here last week. Nobody knows where's it at

2012 LTZ, 1.4L, 6spd manual, Crystal Red Metallic Tintcoat, build date 03/2012, purchased 05/21/2012; Knoxville, TN. Two weeks ago I installed the air deflector/underbody cover (GM Part number 95016301) that was discontinued on the 1.4L turbo Sonic in 01/2012 due to engine fire recall involving the Cruze and a similar part. Seems that oil change techs were changing the oil without removing this part and causing customer complaints about oil leaks/smell, and even a fire caused by spilled brake fluid that wasn't wiped up. So, instead of redesigning the part, or just doing their job properly, GM discontinued this part on the Cruze AND the Sonic. With this part installed, my Sonic is much quieter at speed and at idle, handles better on the highway, much less buffeting by cross winds or when being passed/passing large vehicles. Also, the A/C runs a measured 4 to 6 degrees cooler above 20 mph! I figure, if the flow through the radiator and A/C must be better since the car was designed with this part in place, and so air flow must be better through the intercooler, too! Best $72 I've ever spent!
Will next install a cold air intake to increase mpg.

I bought a 2012 Sonic 2LT Sedan Silver Ice Metallic. Picked it up from W.S Healey Chevy in Goshen, N.Y.. Had the best car buying experience ever! It has the 1.8L auto with the connectivity plus, cruise package, and 16¨ wheel and fog lamp package! I also bought the factory spoiler and the bug deflector! I always get compliments on the looks of the car. I have already put a high-end stereo in it and it ROCKS! Oh, I got the car on 4/28/12

I think every sonic looks hot when it has good Bug Shield for ventshades They make it look massive. Like you own the road or something.

2012 Blue Topaz Metallic Sonic LTZ 1.4 Turbo with Automatic. Pretty much every option it comes with, although I don't think it had the door sills.
