I need something fun to drive - the Aveo may be a Chevy, but it was not designed for guys like me. It is a great student first car.

Sounds good, but I have to say
you should really take a look at parts availability for a '93 car and see if it's still worth it. The trans is a one year only, the PCM and wiring is one year only, the optispark is a non-vented two-year only part that's $500, etc.
I am not hating on '93s in the least. I am speaking from a similar experience: Only 14,000 or so of these cars were made, so finding some of the one year only stuff will suck and won't be available at the parts house. I feel this pain with my '68 Nova. A lot of the stuff is one year only, and even with a production run of 180,000+ and an already existing aftermarket industry guys are still paying $500 for ash trays and $200 for dash emblems. The costs outweigh the profits for reproducing one year stuff so they won't get made.
