Sorry, the LG Motion is CDMA only so it wont work on the new GSM MetroPCS network.

By being like the Motion, what do you mean? Do you mean user available memory? Maybe LTE, or CPU?
If you're looking for another LG, go with the L70. You can get it for $49 at Metro, right now. Also there's the Samsung Galaxy Light for the same price. The Samsung has LTE, so you'd be getting the faster speeds. I think it'd also have the comparable internal space available.
The Samsung Light has a few other small improvements over the Motion, and IMO is a good GSM replacement, especially for the price. I'm trying to convince my wife to swap hers now before she has to and doesn't know what might be available then.
Many of us got the F3 as the nearest GSM equivalent to the Motion, with the unfortunate exception of not as much internal storage. I've had mine over a year and I'm still happy with it. Unfortunately it's not available through Metro any more although they may be had elsewhere. There is the F6, which is similar to the F3 but a bit bigger and with a smaller battery (big battery/great battery life is one of the best things about the F3).
The Galaxy Light doesn't look bad and isn't expensive, but the one thing that stands out is the battery. Only 1800mah so battery life on this phone isn't going to be very good.
