Okay, I'm going to be a bit defensive here.  You can't just say "Geo"
when you are dissing cars.  I'm assuming you mean the Metro with it's
little 3 cylinder sewing machine engine.

The Prizm is a GREAT little car, because it IS a Toyota Corolla but with
the sticker of a Chevy.  I've got a '93 Prizm that's running like a champ
at 108,000 miles and shows no sign of stopping.

I'm betting this is why Chevy retired the Geo branding...
