It is a very nice car! Happy for my hometown (Youngstown)...they really needed a new product! They are very happy (and proud) to be given the responsibility of building such an important car for GM!!

I just don't like it.

Yes I have driven it, sat in it, poked around in it and it still has a horrible feel to me. I will post pics later when I get home but to each his own. I really didn't like the fabric on the dash. The car felt slow as molasses but I do have much faster cars to drive daily so I can forgive that considering the segment it competes in. Overall I give it a .....Meh.

When have you had a chance to drive a Cruze?

If you felt MEH, then I can only guess this segment isn't for you. Or you are comparing to different cars than I am.

It's a 1.4L Turbo making 140 HP, it isn't supposed to be a performance car.

Now criticize the styling, shapes and colors are to each his own, but this car rides and drives better than anything in it's class and that has pretty much been backed up by every article I've read.

Not everyone will like the Cruze. It's that way with most cars. And the Focus is around the corner which should be some great competitiion.

I've seen a few here in Moscow on the street. They look a lot nicer in person than in photos IMHO. Nice little car. What else can you say?

That's an overseas market Cruze. The NA model has some upgrades.
