Hey Sonic friends, My husband and I just bought him a used 2016 Chevy Spark from a Ford dealer this past weekend. We love the little car, but the dealer only gave us one key. That's not going to work, as we both drive it and I do all of the maintenance. Being an LT1 trim, it has the same...

Hey folks, It's been a while since I've posted anything on here; since the time we bought our Sonic this past January. Despite having only 1,500 miles thus far, we love our Sonic! It's been much more trouble-free than the Honda Fit we previously had and is a much more solid, enjoyable vehicle...

Hey everyone, Has anyone done a Sonic-to-Holden Barina conversion? I'm from Australia originally and it just seemed natural to do it. It'll make me feel a little more at home too! Plus I can get the parts relatively easily through family or when I visit The rear badging seems simple enough...

Hey folks, I just bought my Sonic last weekend and it does come with the XM radio, along with three-month free trial. On the drive from the dealership, I noticed that the only station I could get was the preview station. I've received an email the days following to activate the XM Does the 90...

Hey folks, It's a crisp, clear, beautiful sunny day here in LA (no hard feelings to all of you struggling on the East Coast). I decided why not take a few shots around Downtown LA and take advantage of a day with no smog. The city served as the perfect backdrop for the Sonic, plus it gave me...

In the New Member Intro page, I introduced myself as a new Sonic owner and that I'd just purchased a new Sonic LT 1.8 with the manual this past weekend. Although it wasn't intended to be replaced for years to come, the previous car that I'm currently selling is a 2015 Honda Fit LX that has 4k...

Hey everyone, I'm not officially a new member, but I am now a Sonic owner! Back in late 2014, I was on here listening to your tales while considering a Sonic to replace my fantastic 10 year old Focus. However, the so-so reliability ratings on the Sonic turned me off, and we ended up buying a...

This past weekend for 4th July, I visited my parents up north in the High Sierra near Yosemite. One of my biggest thrills is renting cars and taking them on this 700 mile round-trip. The journey involves a variety of landscapes; LA freeway traffic, long, mind-numbing stretches of flat freeway...

I found a potential buyer for my '15 Fit, and am starting to get second thoughts. The Sonic would be my choice guaranteed after the Fit. Will it be reliable? Am I silly for forsaking Honda's enviable resale and losing out on another new car that won't hold its value as well? My biggest...

In February of last year I posted in the new member introductions that I was considering a Sonic among other cars to replace my old 2005 Focus. I was leaning toward the Sonic but wasn't sure about dependability. In October I ended up buying a brand new 2015 Honda Fit (my first new car). The...

Hey guys, I happened to stop by one of the local public auction yards here in LA over the weekend. It's a good time filler for a car enthusiast and there's some unique cars and some oldies but goodies as well. I stumbled across the only Sonic I've seen there; it was a 2012 Sonic LS (build date...

Hey Sonic owners and fans, I'm considering in the next six-seven months replacing my 2005 Ford Focus hatchback. It's been a fantastic car; stylish in bright yellow (which I love!), roomy, comfy, reliable (from a Focus!!), and drives so nicely with great handling and good power. It's just getting...
