Gm's got a long history of collaboration with Daewoo - I had a 1988 Passport Optima (Pontiac Lemans) that was built by Daewoo. It was actually a Daewoo-built Opel Kadette renamed for the Canadian market (with stickers featuring Daewoo's logo and "Manufactured using the worldwide resources of General Motors" on the side windows). This, of course, was before GM bought the bankrupt Daewoo outright in the early 2000's...

We're not getting that. You're looking at a photo of the current Spark sold elsewhere. We'll be getting the new Spark that was designed for North America, and unveiled as the Beat in New York in '07. It'll be competing with the Fiesta.

The Fiesta is definitely the best looking of the two. It might be the best looking car in that segment.
