And the winner is....... The Aveo 5. The guy kept trying to ride up my butt. So at the stop light I got on it. He couldn't even catch up. I pulled like 5 cars on him. Then I get on the highway and he rides my butt. So I'm in the right lane, he gets in the left lane. staying nose to nose. I would slow down he would, I would slowly accel. he would. So I'm comming up on a slow car doing like 15 under the speed limit. So I said screw it. dropped it to 3rd and went. He dropped gear. No match I was able to pull up and in front of him. I let off at about 95 of course here he comes riding up my butt again. Then he does the ricer fly by in the left lane, and jumps off the next exit. So I pull ahead as he's getting off. I made sure to honk and give him the L to the forehead. Funny thing is I have my new muffler on, which took alot of power from my car. Had to to keep it quiet. I have a cut out on the way from jegs. So I can just run a glass pack off the header. Then cap it when I'm in the neighborhood

Ya i think the new kia rio5 are nice. I would figure they would beat the aveo, since they have 110hp

both of thouse cars have their torque high up in the rpm range, unlike us, so this is why they are slower.
