i test drove an aerio a few months back, and was VERY unimpressed. i did scare the poor sales kid i had tagging along with me though. he kept going on and on about the ABS, so i said 'mind if i try them out'? so from about 50mph, i put it to the floor. i guess he wasn't expecting to stop as fast as we did because his head almost hit the windshield even with the seatbelt on. after that, he said it was a good idea if we went back to the store

I have never seen a car as ugly as the Aerio hatch! Those wheels look puny compared to the profile of the car. I just wanna looking at it. I hope I never see one on the road, might have a siezure or something.

there's nothing sport or compact about that car. it's heavy and soft in the power and handling dept. granted, that's coming from someone driving a car that's almost unstreetable because of all the mods, but it know what i like. that isn't it.

Ya those things are pretty ugly. Wheels look too small for the size of the car. It's like a dwarfed minivan. It should've never made the production line. Whoever engineered that should've been executed at the factory parking lot.

To top off the Aerio bashing...
They produce it in this pale banana yellow color that just does NOT look good on a car...
I would classify it right up there with the lime green Neons of the 90s (ewwww! Remeber those?).
Oh yeah, one more thing. What is up with those TV commercials? "It's True" that they are pretty stupid.
