New Sonic Dusk Owner Here!

[Mithion]

Just got a brand new 2014 Dusk with the automatic, sunroof and advanced safety system. Traded in a 2007 Mazda 3 S Touring for it. Pick it up Monday, pics will follow!

Any other Dusk owners here?

Any advice, knowledge, tips etc is welcome.

 

[Mithion]

I know the Dusk is pretty new but I can't be the only one who got one lol

 

[NewZJ]

You might be

 

[Mithion]

Well I guess thats pretty cool if I am the first. When I pick it up on Monday I will post plenty of pictures and post about my first impressions, my drive home etc.

Do it as smug as possible, I would

Haha, I will make sure to throw in some boastful remarks.

I can say for sure that they are selling, the salesman at my dealer didn't have any and had to contact 4 other dealers before he found one that was not being looked at the same time I was there. I'm in southern MD, the one I am getting is in PA. He looked as far as Virginia Beach. First 3 literally had people at the dealers sitting down for them. Luckily for me the fourth one had the most options and they still hooked me up with am amazing apr and monthly payments.

Thanks!

For sure, I've never been so excited about a Monday before lol. It's like waiting for Christmas morning as a kid. That drive to the dealer is going to be awesome and the home will be epic!

 

[Mithion]

Soooo nice, can't wait till Monday to pick it up.

Just found my car on the dealers website in PA, they still have it up for sale. Sucks for anyone in that area who goes to that dealer, it's the only one and it is MINE lol

OK, I'll bite - what's so cool about a Dusk. From the pic above, it looks like a Sonic??

 

[Mithion]

It is a Sonic. Dusk is a package that includes a body kit, 18 rims, special interior etc. Look it up.

Well, Mithion, I too am a Dusk owner on the forum. I got my Dusk the end of June. It is my second Sonic, my wife has a '12 LTZ 1.4 sedan. We really like our cars, they've been everything we wanted them to be. Mine replaced my pickup that I used for my daily work commute. Reduced my gas expenses to a third, from getting $50 fillups every other day to $20 every 2-3 days. And it drives so nice. Did your car come from Sutliff Chevy in Harrisburg, PA? I drove to see that car before I ordered mine from my dealer. I am seeing more and more Sonics on the road and in parking lots all over my metropolitan area but not one other Dusk. I get many compliments from people who've never heard of the Sonic at all. They are a nice step up from the regular Sonics appearance wise, IMO. Good luck with yours.

Got my Dusk back on October 17... it was a special order the first customer didn't want after all. This thing is a baby Cadillac and people can't believe it's a Chevy!
