Keep in mind, the Aztek is made by GM, which failed miserably at marketing the Nova in Mexico and South America. Ah... that explains part of it ... GM origin...-gggg I just noticed that the spelling is with a "k" and not with a "c" (not that may have anything with the bad design....) I have no idea what this car looks like I suppose I could do a search, then again... why waste the time.... it has already formed an image in my mind of the Pinto... (but that was ford's claim to the crap-car) then it has to be the "Vega" which was GM's version of the crap-car.... just like the Yugo... and that Russian turd.... hmmm i forgot the name of the Russian one.... Check your Spanish/English phrasebook for the definition of No Va LOL I know what no va means... What I have no idea for is this desire by car companies to come up with these absurd names that just because they sound "foreign" (to whom, I ask) they automatically assume they are "cool names" examples: a Touareg ? (what the hell is it ? Apparently, it is from the Beduins... but what is it ?) a Centieme ? (is that a French cent?) a Fetish >>>>> LOL ! (yeah right... I have a red Fetish with extra wide tires.... roflol) and the list goes on.... Festiva... Spectron.... Charade (lol) Pajero (LOLOL... I know what this means in Argentina, and it is NOT about cars) -- for which... there is a Jr. and a Mini... lol and so on.... Edit.... I finally look at the Aztek... it is UGLY !
