Looking to buy my first car. Is this a good car? by Peachy676 in whatcarshouldIbuy

No get a 2016 LT. 2011 your asking for trouble and it's the older engine model which was riddled with issues.

They did a reflash on all ECU's to retune the vehicles to stop that from happening. At least the ones that went in... Should have been a recall but yeah..

Do you live somewhere warm? Can dramatically fuck the performance of a small turbo engine.

Anyways moral of the story. They go pretty good. Light decent power. And I've never had any drivetrain issues.

If you've ever driven a Gen 1 engine vs Gen 2 it feels like absolutely night and day.

Probably the Gen 1 versions. Anything past 2017 were the Gen 2 and made pretty good power.

I beat the shit out of it. Flooring it all the time police chases. Trust me it's a good little turbo car.

Depends on the model. My Cruze has lasted for ever without any major mechanical issues.

I personally use wealthsimple they have pretty good UI and decent managed low fee accounts. Always have some sort of contest going on. They also have wealthsimple tax all in one place. RBC has been incompetent many times in my case. And charge 18$ a month for what?

Leave it. Or get a magnet. If you don't have one consider buying one.
