Thanks Drew for adding shots from the floor. This is still a very ugly car to me. The Front on shot makes those lower chrome areas stand out like zits on this ugly face. -
Exterior Comparison

Interesting comparison of the dashes.
-
Very Cool, Happy B-Day to where ever you are!
-
Since most of us wondered why GM did not offer this sooner for Chevy as a notch below the Encore. I wonder if it is because they wanted to maximize sales of the encore knowing that if they brought out the chevy, there would be people who would ignore Buick for Chevy due to old age stigma?
-
Like the Dodge, the other two are Mehhh!
-
Yup Ford it hitting the same water issue at VW and has a patch they apply to deal with the issue also.
-
Not a GM product for Momma but a Kia!
-
Always ugly before the light comes through. They should use this time to purge old GM thinking. Time for new fresh blood to fully turn GM into the World Class company it is capable of.
-
I actually love the look, very SUV. Impressed with the technology, hope it is reliable. Question, where is the engine specific's? Nothing about the power train?
-
Initial impression is a nice looking CUV with what is becoming a trend of Mean, Pissed off Headlamps. Over all will be a hit for Nissan. Rear is my least favorite part, the whole coupe pinched butt look with reduction in headroom and cargo room is just so old school and tired IMHO. Interior I like very much as a clean but flowing dash and interior look. Not a fan of White as it shows all dirt and is a pain to keep clean. Yet with the few items I am not thrilled by, I will say this is a hit and should sell well for them.

Saw this bad boy at the park-n-ride lot yesterday and was surprised how clean it was. Great candidate for restoring.
-
1yr lease is a great way to get people into their auto's and move them up into a new one after only 12 months. Smart Marketing.
-
So they will add your so called water fix at the point of building it then?
-
Initial reaction to the TDI is cool, but then you see the MPG and it is just mehhh especially when you see the boring non inspiring body language inside and especially out. This will be seen and forgotten by the time people walk 5 feet away from the auto at the show.
-
I have to agree that for a power wagon which is not a mass produced product, they should have a better power plant under the hood. I would venture to guess that they went after a MPG thing here.
-
Have to agree with DF that this is the best looking Mini-Van in the segment. They have a very pleasing external body design with plenty of positives inside. Honda and Toyota need to dial back the weird external body design of their vans and Chrysler needs to step up the quality factor as the Town & Country Mini-Van I saw over the weekend looked very cheap inside and plasticky. This I foresee making conquest sales from the established 3 that are out there.
-
I do not foresee this car gaining market share, they made a terrible mistake much like Honda did with the civic and they will be forced to refresh this by the end of the year!
-
FT-86 sits too low for us tall guys to get into comfortably, cabin too small and gutless. Not sure how DF defines it feels fast at any speed, but that car is a slug.
-
I agree it sounds awesome, only you have the quality issues of VW and their poor so called fix of the water issue with their turbo diesels would make me hold off recomending it to others.
-
WTF! They took a good looking car and made it ugly! What idiots in mgmt approved this and then making the taillights look like all over asian cars is not good.
-
Very cool, I love the new frame and the capabilities. Makes you wonder how soon before they bring this technology to other lines that can use a lighter stiffer frame for a better handling auto. I wonder if this means they could use the frame to make a 4 door Convertible that does not weight 3-4 tons?
-
You want to melt all that pretty plastic stick on's? I do have to say that Ram and Dodge have gone a little nuts with plastic stickers on the car, Kinda like you expect a toddler to do to their parents window.
-
I didn't see that report.. Interesting though. Here was one of the stories that USA Today covered about this. Delphi told investigators that the switches were not up to spec. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2014/03/30/gm-ignition-switches-recall-congressional-report/7085919/ Here is another story covering it in the Detroit Free Press http://www.freep.com/article/20140330/BUSINESS0101/303300138/GM-ignition-recall Pretty clear Delphi did not build the right part to begin with, but then OLD GM MGMT accepted it anyway. Not sure why but they did.

Justice served if the people who actually approved the short cut are still at the new GM that they be let go. Still think the Executives should be pulled back in from that time and grilled along with forcing them to pay back their ill gotten gains.
