  1. I like what I see so far, I wonder if they will have an AWD version like the Caliber had in RT trim or and SRT version?
  2. I like what I see so far, excited to see the new models next week. Guess their 1.4 turbo charge will be the new SRT model or just an RT with a 4 engine marked as the SRT model? Anyone else have any better info on this?
  3. This truck is but ugly and the only GOOD point is it is a small Diesel.
  4. Who's There?
  5. 67impss, running or just overseaing chryCo's is differant than what the FIAT division is doing. Chry is in far better touch with America today than Fiat. I stand by my comment that they are out of touch with what America wants in regards to their Fiat division. History of auto magazines have clearly stated what they feel should be brought to America and Fiat sends what most people are not interested in. Stopping by the Kirkland Fiat dealership, it was amazing to see the sales people actually ask me if I wanted to test drive a Jeep, Chrysler or Dodge product even though they came out of the Fiat show room. At least here in the Pacific NW home of the green tree huggers, FIAT does not go over very well with the buyers.
  6. With the cost of maintenance on BMW and Mercedes, I will stick with Cadillac. Far better in my book.
  7. Another auto built for the 5'8" crowd only. Any thing bigger and you will not fit in. Yea handling will really justify spending 90K. I think I will stick with the CTS V coupe.
  8. Impressed I am not with Stage 1 for both auto's. Stage2 sound like a true start on Perfomance. Stage 3 is awesome, gotta find a way to get it street legal.
  9. FIAT = Failure In America Twice!!! Fiat had garbage product the first time, they continue to think they can offer the same crap in Europe here. People who have bought the 500 have unloaded them as they do not hold up and the dealership in Kirkland WA has a ton of auto's both new and used 500 on the lot. Fiat has no Idea what americans want and they clearly have not seemed to do any market research.
  10. Red Light Green Light
  11. Too funny and the mercedes emblem on the back. Guess he thinks his car has balls or something. Maybe he just likes his woman with a little booty!
  12. Ugly car still, front facia reminds me of a sucking sea serpent. Maybe the sushi has gone to their head.
  13. Have to give BIG KUDO's to GM for releasing that they will honor all warranties on the vehicles made up till Feb 2010. At least they are willing to back those buyers and could regain some back into the GM fold. Sad for SAAB buyers, but this car company should have been killed off a couple years ago. Just not enough room for this many auto companies. Also this will add to the European Depression.
  14. Answered my own question, it is based on the Cadillac SRX. Nice version in the Aero XWD. Based on my ten cents on the dollar that would make this $50,000 vehicle a bargain at $5000. I might be willing to go as high as $15,000
  15. For ten cents on the dollar I would be willing to buy a SAAB 9-4x AWD SUV. This way I can handle any component failures since there is no warranty. If memory serves me right was the 9-4x based on the old trailblazer or another GM SUV?
  16. Ugly, I do not care for the style at all, looks like something an animal left behind.
  17. Since my new job now blocks facebook which I never used anyway. Is there any more of the image that can be posted here to be seen? If not then a new block will be shown next week, then the 3rd the week after with the final block shown on the 4th week?
  18. Interesting, but the link goes to a whitehouse web site petition on grey market auto's and does not seem to have anything with getting Chevy / GM to have a car based Ute here.
  19. Sweet Ride, would love to have one to drive around here in Seattle and just piss off all the tree huggers
  20. Nope that works for me. A single place to go to get info on the cars.
  21. Just found this in the media center of GM. The 2.8-liter turbo diesel yields 180 hp and a very impressive 346 lb-ft of torque. For reference, that's just 20 horsepower shy of the base 4.8-liter V8 in the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, but it's also 41 more lb-ft of torque. GM hasn't released any fuel economy estimates on either diesel engine, but both can be mated to either a five-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. Four-wheel drive versions of the Colorado make use of a two-speed, electronically actuated transfer case. Thought this is pretty amazing for such a small engine to be so powerful, just hope it truly can last like a v8. Wish they would confirm the towing capabilities.
  22. Everyone loves THAT Ghibli...I was talking about this one... I have to say that while the gold car is nice, I actually like this muscular boxy look of the silver car. Sweet ride.
  23. Very nice looking Ride. Congrats
  24. Considering that it has 3-rows of seats, I doubt a longer-wheel base 5-door model will ever show up. Now going the other way - shortening it to a 3-door - would be much appreciated. Land Rover is planning to offer a 3-door Defender (as per the concepts shown already), and GM was known for years to offer a 3-door Blazer, so it would be logical that a sportier, back to its roots 3-door would be at least in the planning stage at this point. I really did not think they would offer the LWB as it was a mess the last time. I just wish they would make the third row an option as I know few people who ever use them. I would rather see the price drop and the cargo space improve. The third row may be great for those who don't use birth control or travel to Mecca but for most people it is just in the way. As an option it is there for those who really want it if needed. Hyperv6 I have to totally disagree with you over the 3rd row seat. The reason my daughter, son and wife love the 99 Durango we have is that when you need space for cargo, you have it, but then when you need a few extra seats for carring people, you can pull them up and have them also. This trailblazer allows you to squeeze in a few more kids or a couple of adults for short trips and that give a ton of value in my opinion.
