    Grammar is a big pet peeve of mine when posting to the internet.

    Disc brakes also increase unsprung mass and are more susceptible to corrosion-related failures. True, get all those silly east coast states to stop destroying the planet with their freakin salt and salt based solutions on the roads. I have never seen such terrible roads till I traveled on the east coast and upper mid west. Disc brakes also increase unsprung mass and are more susceptible to corrosion-related failures. Both are non factors as failures are rare and weight differences are small since they are using much lighter parts today. I am unaware of any street car that suffers any handling ills because of a disc brake. Besides drums are no more trouble free. If anything I see more leakin wheel cylinders and frozen adjusers than any other brake issue. Almost all HHR's with rear drums has adjuster issues. GM has since solves their rear disc adjustment issues of the 80's and early 90's. Totally agree here, I would take any auto with all Disc's over drums any day. They work so much better on road and off road as proven by my fleet of GM SUV's.

    So much potential as long as the price does not go through the roof.

    IGNITION COILS, Yup Bing it or Google it, but I have found on nurmerous forums that people with Astra's having the same issues and everyone says to scan for codes as some do show up and there have been times nothing showed up. But always good troubleshooting to do. Then test the Ignition coils as multiple people have stated they failed or were flaky and once replaced the auto ran better than new. Seems to be an issue with the 2007-2008 astras. I agree with others, much cheaper to repair this car and drive it than to dump it, take a loss and look for a beater that will have multiple hidden issues.

    While I can understand not wanting to get rid of a cherished item like your guitar, Keep in mind, Your investing in your Future. Going without the Guitar while you educate yourself, fix your ride so it is dependable, will allow you to get even more or better guitars down the road. Sacrifice now for a better future. Instant gratification does not secure a job, retirement or your future.

    DOOH, I knew I was doing something wrong in trying to get all my work done so I can enjoy vacation next week. Cab over Engine. What a concept, I actually zoned on the COE thing. Chicks on Engines does play a major theme in my mind especially when it comes to old awesome trucks! Hugs to all!

    I am so sick and tired of all the Political BS on the TV, News, Radio, etc. If anyone of these people really wanted to stand out and get a public vote, then stand up and tell us you will not be in office for more than 18 years and sign a legal document to that affect. Do not play party, play the job to accomplish all the illes we need fixed in this country. Cut in half our 1081 Military bases over seas and spend that money on rebuilding America. Stop giving billions in cash to counteries that are not really our friends. Just work hard and do your job and stop B@$ching about life. You get out of it what you put into it and nothing more. You are not owed anything. End of Political rant. Sorry everyone, I am just sick of all the Political BS.

    I agree that GMC should be an upscale only line and not have base stripped models. Leave that to Chevy.

    I wonder if the AWD system of the CTS regular could be beefed up enough to handle the power from the CTS-V or even this monster. I would think it would be freakin awesome if this was AWD.

    Very interesting info on assessing power/torque. But what do you think of this Hennessey production car? The look, your impression/feeling? We know you think it is over powered based on your formula, but what about their interruption of this Cadillac and their top performance version?

    G. David Felt Staff Writer Alternative Energy - CheersandGears.com We all love GM and how Cadillac has been on a roll lately. Yet even then we know that GM will never give you everything you have wanted or fullfill the niche area of ultimate performance. Now with Hennessey stepping up, it looks like Cadillac will truly have a monster that will put everyone in it's place, even Bugatti. Review the story and sound off on what you think of this Hennessey Built Monster! John Hennessey's tuning shop in Texas operates on a simple principle that denies the existence of "too much horsepower." Here's his latest offering to the angry gods of speed -- a dozen Hennessey V1200 Cadillac CTS-V coupes, all of which offer more than double the power of their everyday lookalikes with a Bugatti-challenging 1,226 hp and a top speed of 242 mph. http://autos.yahoo.c...-190832135.html View full article

    This guy and all the rest of the morons in the boat got what they deserved. You do not go that fast and think you can just relax. They should all have been in seats with life vests and due diligence for the high speed run.

    Second paragraph. Need to correct to to two. According to Reuters, Alfa Romeo showed to new models to dealers.

    Does the N/A represent v6 or diesel engines up to the supercharged V8?
