There is a spot already in the front that accepts a tow hook. There is a piece of the front grille that pops out and the receptacle is there already. If you have a 1LE the tow hook is already in your trunk "spare tire" area

No car yet just doing as much r+d as I can, but planning on buying one in June.
OK, so the car *comes with a tow hook from a factory???* This is insanely good! Holy cow!!!

Yes the 1LE is one those few special things in life that you buy and as you own it you learn new things about it that surprise and impress you. GM really set a gold standard with this car at this pricepoint that I don't think any manufacturer will be able to touch in any capacity.

Yup, it's in the foam tray under the trunk carpeting, next to the tire mobility kit.

I guess I'm accustomed to my cars coming with a factory tow hook, it seems normal to me.

I just use my factory one and keep it in place. No need to spend a ton on a fancy red one.

My Honda Fit even comes with a tow hook!

If you like the look of a red hook, you could always paint the loop on your factory one.

Well said. I have a very well sorted C5 so been on a fence about the 1LE for a while now - until I test drove one. I was sold within about 5mins. Incredible steering feel and chassis. Excellent driver ergonomics. Top notch fit and finish. More glass would have been better, but frankly didn't think about visibility issues even once during my drive (somewhat surprisingly I must add). I am defo shopping for one in June!
