Those "H.O." turbodiesel models must be great cash generators - Just tell the computer to turn up the boost, and you can add another grand to the price tag. Volvo did the same thing with their NA gasoline mills in the euro S60 = 140 and 170 hp versions, only difference is the price tag and some ones and zeroes in the computer.
Chevrolet reveals the pricing for the British Cruze. Over 15,000 pounds for an economy car?! Talk about model bloat! That's heavy!
In all reality, at about $21,000 for the top of the line diesel, this car seems to be priced pretty darn reasonably.
The big news is the Cruze will be Chevy's preferred platform for Chevy's WTCC entry. Could there be a hi-po version of the Cruze? Probably not since GM no longer has a performance shop.
I like how only the top of the line LT gets electric front and rear windows. Power rear windows don't get used very much save for in hot areas when you want to cool down the whole car quickly.
@HIDGolf: That's pretty damn cheap, if you ask me. You can't even get a Civic WITHOUT power windows anymore? If Chevy makes you get the top model just to get power rear windows, fuck them.
Also, fuck GM for making us wait another year for this car.

nine model variants and three different engine choices
Sounds like every car in the UK/Europe.
But consider that the US pricing will be somewhere between the direct pounds conversion (high) and just putting a $ in place of the £. I'm guessing $14,900 base price in the US with the 1.8L.
I hate this new look with the grill/intake at the leading edge of the hood that GM is using on all their cars. It may give a unique look, but I doubt it's a real inlet, because of aerodynamics, but it will still catch a lot of air and and cause excessive drag, hurting MPG's. (This area is the highest aerodynamic pressure area on any car, and should be as smooth as possible.) ... *continues mumbling to self; "if I had just worked a little harder in school and become a GM designer..."*
WTCC? I know that BTCC stands for British Touring Car Championship, but what's this? The Welsh Touring Car Championship? Western Sahara? Neither of those is even a real country.
If that thing has true GM parts they're doomed. It will never finish a race. Got to admit, it's going to be fun watching them get thrashed by the other makes.
@jduffy13: If my Cavalier is anything to go on, the fan will stop working, and there'll be rattles everywhere, but it'll keep on going. Unless I got one with fake GM parts.

BMW and Honda stand as runners-up, and the Sebring has a league of its own.

But then again, that's not a real Chevy either.
