Man, she looks real nice. The sides of the vehicle give me memories of the Linea. The interiors are top class too. Enjoy the rocket!

Congratulations. Take it easy during the running in. Meanwhile, any specific running-in period recommended by the manufacturer?

Cheers,

Jay

Congrats mate!

A very wise decision not to go for Laura. Its wonderful how this forum is helping people to make right decisions

If i was in market for this car this is exactly the color i would had bought. Red looks awesome on Cruze(not to take anything away from white but if white is classy red is completely Exotic)

Am sure you cant wait enough to drive this car all day as its a rocket and yes 120 comes so easy you dont even realise it(as happened to me in td) so can't blame you or your bro for revving it
