Wow I love this post and i have to agree with everything said in it. When GM took away their sporty compact car entry and had nothing to replace it with i was shocked but i guess that is what bankruptcy does to a company that was overseen by the Govt at that time so sporty wasn't in the forefront. But still now Gm is doing great and still nothing sporty and cheap to compete with Ford or Mazda or Frs/Brz twins. Heck ford has two small sporty compacts ST focus and ST fiesta. I needed a small sporty car a few months ago and i did test drive the Sonic Rs and it was fine but it didn't give me the right feel or vibe, So i went and test drove a Fiat 500 abarth and it was amazing to drive and quite fine i was smiling the whole time during the test drive it was the car i was looking for and the Fiesta ST wasn't out yet to test drive so i bought the abarth and don't regret it at all. But i do think if the sonic RS had a lil more power and more edginess/rawness to it i might have gotten it. But anyways i hope that GM does come out with something soon even if late to the game it has to be the right price and performance to match.
