sduford Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I rented one of these while on a business trip last week. I was suprised by the build quality and the interior design. Not world class, but much better then what I've come to expect from Chevy. It is also nice and quiet. However, that car had one glaring flaw: the power steering is grossly overboosted. The steering is so devoid of feel that you can't even tell if it is connected to the front wheels or not. The suspension is also quite soft. The combination of the two factors made the car extremely boring to drive, and in my book, almost dangerous to drive at all but the most sedate pace.
