    pushing traction control off and then holding until stabilitrack turns off make the spark a little more exciting.

    Home Charging Stations, What Do You Guys Have??

    I have the one bosch sells its not the voltec but the one that is a few bucks cheaper just has a shorter cord. Came out to around $450 without shipping or tax. I installed it the other weekend and works great.

    GM Voltec/SPX charge controller install

    NO good right up shows people how to do it without having to run a entire new circuit.

    Bosch home charging station

    Correct I only get a one year warranty with it I used to be an electrician so no way i am going to pay someone to do it for me. Plus the installation price would be over $500 if i had someone do it. So even if i went through two chargers it would still be cheaper.

    GM Voltec/SPX charge controller install

    you mean two 110v legs. Two 110s make 220v. Not one leg at 220v and another at 220v combined they are 110v. Not possible to have a singe hot at 220v. Voltec charger looks nice.

    120V Charger cord length

    Not off hand but i would say 20 foot maybe. I know the manual says not to use an extension cord but coming from an electrical background as long as you use a 20 amp 12 gauge cord and try to keep it under 50 feet I see no reason that you shouldnt be able to run off an extension cord. Also...

    Good point. My thing is why use the brake when i can just use the motor. I fast traffic i love being able to just a little bit off the accelerator to slow down in L. I have gotten really good a judging distance and when to and how much to let off to keep the distance from the car in front...

    Flipping the rear cargo mat over.

    Well not really a BIG mod or anything but thought i would at least share. I pride myself on taking the best care of anything i have invested money into. Im sure like many the rear cargo area will be used to cary stuff, some being cleaner than other.s What i did was take the rear cargo rug and...

    What's the range like?

    Yea I agree. The mileage is pretty spot on. I drive about 35 miles total in my commute. In the morning its traffic but moving around 45 miles per hour. My mileage really didnt move for the first couple days. Meaning it would say 85 miles to empty when i left fully charged from home and when...

    Test drive

    Yea I agree the blue accent is the thing i diss-like the most. Its to CUTE. At least with tinted window you dont see it from the outside.

    actually from what i have noticed the brake lights only come on when you fully let off the accelerator. Which only happens to me when i actually would be braking anyways so there wouldnt be any difference. When I am in traffic is am just release a certian percentage of the gas pedal which...

    Test drive

    I guess i am different I didnt want 1lt. I hate cloth due to ease of stains and hardness to clean. I also really like the way the steering wheel feels. Plus the baby blue is ugly enough blue cloth would just make it worse in my opinion.

    Bosch home charging station

    from bosch direct. Its their charger. They also sell the voltec one for about $590 but the only difference was a longer cord which i didnt feel i needed so i went with the cheaper one.

    Rear seats: do they fold completely flat?

    eh not necessarily. My drivers side seat is pretty far back I am 6 foot so it probably farther back than maybe normal and i didnt adjust the seat to lay the back seat down.

    Chevy Spark crash test

    I dont think thats the same spark. Deff. know its not a ev but it also doesnt have 10 airbags like the evs at least do.

    Keyless Entry and Push Button Start

    Yea thats just the way it is. I guess the had to cut cost some where. I wish it had a built in garage door opener myself but o well.

    Rear seats: do they fold completely flat?

    WRONG the rear seats do fold flat. When you fold the seats down pull the head rest out a little bit to miss the bottom seat cushion. They will fold flat. See

    Bosch home charging station

    Yea I ordered a bosch 240v charger last week. It was only around $450 plus tax and shipping so it only cost me $12 i think. Cant wait to get it and install it. I will post up when i have it all done.

    Hi, Well I picked up my spark on June 20, 2013 on just a spur the moment decision. I saw the great review on yahoos homepage and decided to go give it a test drive. The dealer only had the one and long story short i drove it home that night. Its a pearl black with 2lt interior. When I got...
