I purchased my Chevy Sonic back in July of 2013 brand new from a dealership and it has been worth every penny I paid. I was in the market for a new car with a warranty after my old vehicle left me stranded time after time, and this car fit the bill just perfectly. It has many high end features, like remote start, 16" alloy wheels, touch screen entertainment center and navigation, and it connects to my phone via Bluetooth. It really has everything I'd ever need for driving to work or taking it on a long road trip. I got the hatchback version, and it is very utilitarian as well, allowing me to move many items that I never would have been able to fit in a car. It gets decent gas mileage, not outstanding, but decent. Though if you really drive it carefully, you can get upwards of 40mpg, but that's no fun!
