Bought a new Daewoo Winstorm SUV (Chevy Captiva)

Post by TheGreatAndPowerfulOz »

Today we got my wife a new 2012 Chevy Captiva SUV (which is the Daewoo Windstorm). It's the same burgundy dark red as my Leganza.

We are thinking about buying the Daewoo front grille and name badges from outside the US to make it says it is a Daewoo and have all the Daewoo emblems.

Best name ever!
They are very popular in Australia, and I always have a chuckle to myself about their real name :)

It takes the same key pattern as the Leganza, too, so Leganza key blanks can be cut to fit it. :D

I am trying to decide on a newer car now, too, and my options are down to the Captiva (Winstorm), Chevy Sonic and Chevy Curze (all Daewoo cars). When I get something newer, I will be able to put time and work into my Lanos to get it in like new condition again. I love that little car!
