How popular do you want the Chevy Sonic to be?

[Sonic-Mike]

I know it is kind of a weird question but how popular do you really want the Chevy Sonic to be?

Do you want it to be a Chevy top seller, but risk seeing one every other corner and intersection? Or would you prefer the other extreme and be one of the rare owners of the Sonic?

I definitely want the Sonic to be popular. The ultimate would be if it became sort of what the Civic was in the 90's... meaning an extremely popular economy car that's fun to drive and has a massive aftermarket following. I certainly don't know of any cars that are so inexpensive with so much tuning potential, so it might be possible. Who wouldn't want lots of aftermarket options? Of course I'm a GM guy at heart (and a Corvette guy if you can't tell) so selling more Sonics would also mean a stronger GM, which would mean a secure future for Corvette.

Yes please. Lots of tuning help would be great!

Already looking at things to do within a couple months of purchase!

Quality #1!

You know, I really don't care as long as the reviews are very positive overall and Consumer Reports rate it as one of the Best Subcompact Cars on the market.
The other factor? NO RECALLS!! Lol!
Seriously, I'm holding my breath that this car is meticulously done (all "i's" dotted and "t's" crossed). That during its lifetime, the Sonic doesn't fall into any recall campaigns.
That would make me VERY happy!

I agree with all the above, the more popular the better the after market and I am all for that.

Even if there is a Sonic every other corner I can still make mine look rare

Its a love/hate relationship. I hate when I go to a parking lot and 4 other people have the same car as me. I like having a tight knit car group, where if I see another same type of car I can throw up a wave and have them wave back. I really don't think the Sonic will be like this but will still have a following of people that are dedicated and love their cars.

I have to say I hope this is popular enough to have a good aftermarket selection, but I don't care after that.

Exactly!!! Quoted for truth.

I hate to sound like a broken record but I am in agreement with everyone else. The more the merrier.

Popular enough it sells well but not so much its like a current G5 Pursuit! SO MANY!

Bring a mustang owner, I enjoy seeing mustangs everywhere...but I am thrilled when I see nicely kept cobras, mach1s, gts even some v6. With that said, I hope sonic is a top seller...but we will eventually only notice the nicely kept, sportier rs looking type and after market upgraded sonics. True enthusiasts will buy rs and turbo versions
