2011 Mazda 2 vs. 2012 Chevrolet Sonic (Turbo) Comparison Test....

.
Here's a comparison test by Inside Line which features the 2011 Mazda 2 vs. 2012 Chevrolet Sonic Turbo... yeah that's right, a Sonic Turbo. Which kinda makes the comparison unfair to the Mazda 2. What do you guys think?

Unfair? Meh, I could put a $1000 into springs/wheels/tires on the 2 and thoroughly ravage a Sonic on the track/back roads.

But stock vs stock im sure the Sonic is the fast car....

...well that is until the fact that the Sonic being a Chevy comes to play and everything on the car starts breaking and it turns out to be a big POS like the Aveo is. Just saying.

I'm not even sure that the $1000 in springs/tires would be necessary.

I meant that the comparison might be unfair as one car has a turbo and the other does not. As they preferred the Sonic partly because it has a turbocharger. Know what i mean?

No, I don't think that part is unfair. They are all the same segment/price range vehicles. One company decided to turbo theirs, one didn't. Its all preference really. Plus... its... a... Chevy...
