In fact, we welcome it. So when Chevy called us and proposed we build its latest Sonic hatchback for the ’13 SEMA Show, we responded emphatically with, “Let’s effin’ do it!” A couple months later we were on our way to the dealership to pick up our Sonic RS. On paper, our hot little hatch sounded decent with a slightly sportier styling compared to the standard model, plus rear disc brakes, a 1.4-liter turbo and six-speed manual. But after spending a month behind the wheel of the car, plus hours on the computer researching the Sonic’s aftermarket support (or lack thereof), we had our work cut out for us.
