    The Next Barina.. (more Daewoo crap!)

    Well here's a preview of the next model Barina in Chevrolet guise. Still as ugly as a hat full of arseholes I think...

    It will sell. The price is what decides if its going to sell. The Barina now sits in a price driven market.Something the GM Europe Sourced Barina could never do. But you never know . Holden could go back to the GM Soruced Barina . But the cost wont be 13k. It will be about 15-16k for the entry level.

    I have a feeling we could see a Corsa VXR though at the sydney motorshow this year on the HSV Stand.

    Yes, it'll sell.. but its still a second rate, badly built, uncrashworthy pile of poo. The TK has been responsible for a sharp decline in XC resale values and now some people are confusing the two. Oh well... Rant over!

    I don't care if GM owns Daewoo or not. As far as I'm concerned, it's still an ugly, poorly assembled Korean piece of shit, and it makes the Ford Focus look better value than ever.

    What is it with GM anyway? First the Vectra, and now the Corsa. Are we still going to be able to buy any decent European-sourced vehicles from GM or not?

    Thumbs down all the same.

    it looks like the current TK sold here with a facelift,

    ie, new nose a la Audi & headlights a la Epica!!!

    still same poor chasis & drivetrain I'll bet.

    shame the proper new Corsa didn't get shipped over here.

    I'm looking at getting a new daily driver in November & it's what I'd like to buy, but now will check out the new Mazda2, the Yaris, swift & xr4...

    GMH has missed out on 1 sale !!!

    I know you're only joking, but that's pretty much spot on for the target market of the Barina.

    hahaClick here to enlarge I was partly joking but it does make sense...what do you want more from a $13k brand new car? I reckon it looks alright, goes alright and hopefully will last for a while like daihatsu charades!

    More specifically, what's with GM Holden? - GM Europe (Saab/Opel) are still making cars

    At the moment, just the Astra variants and the Saab range. So far we've lost the Barina (Corsa), Calibra, Combo, Tigra, Vectra, Zafira. Although we have gained the Captiva MaXX (Opel Antara).

    isnt the captiva a korean car anyways?

    GM holden caught the korean bird flu! cheaper and easier to service as technology is crap in those koren cars....
