Took my Cruze to the dealership for service today. Thought I cruise the lot while there. Got a big shock. There sat a 2017 hatchback RS with, here comes the shocker, a six speed manual. This dealership doesn't order manual cars except for the odd Corvette. The SS Camaro didn't have a manual.

Pics or it didn't happen.

I may be able to make that happen.

Saw a '17 hatchback at my dealer this morning too, a black LT auto, looks nice.

Did you happen to notice if the hatch had the push button start? Also do the manuals have the start|stop technology? If it doesn't have those two items and it has the z-link rear end you may of just seen my next new car. lol

push button and start stop are auto only features. Z link is premier only.

Abrons-

Welcome to the forums. What's the True North Edition? Is there a special cold weather package for the hatch? It looks like you can get heated steering wheels and seats, just curious if this is similar to what Ford was doing with their trucks a few years ago. The Northland Edition is what they called it.

Sharp Car Color, since I can't seem to configure them yet on Chevy.com not a lot of info seems like it's out there. Specifically interior dimensions and drivers head height.

I'm not sure about the color but they do look good

True North Edition :

You can build and configure them on gm.ca . At least you can get a rough idea what options and prices are available. I measured the driver's head height...sitting in the seat with the seat in the lowest position and the backrest at 90 degrees the distance from your lower back to the roof liner is 39 inches. Of coarse tilting the backrest will give you more headroom.

Where was it assembled?
17" or 18" tires ?

I believe all hatchbacks are built in Mexico...Also 18" tires on mine.

I decided to splurge and went all out.

How big of a difference does the Z-Link make? I'm trying hard not to regret getting a premier instead of my LT-RS

Thanks...Was thinking about getting the Orange Burst Metallic but it would have been a 3-4 month wait.
