  1. Yup thats all. Lets just hope Pontiac stays alive and kicking. Now I am going to pray.
  2. You are more than welcome! Glad you enjoyed them!
  3. Welcome back. Glad your alive.
  4. It had to have been the Ion. What an ugly little car, with a crude interior. I was worried when GM said the Cobalt will be based on the same platform as the Ion, thankfully it was a whole lot better looking. The L-Series did nothing for them either with all the troubles they had, factor in a Relay and Outlook and Sky they never belonged getting and an over-priced Astra we have a failure. Thank God Saturn went instead of Pontiac, my belief was it was going to be one of the two. If Pontiac had gone and Saturn would have stayed I prolly wouldn't be buying a new GM car again.
  5. Super Clean 1989 or 1990 Trans Am GTA in bright red with gold cross-lace wheels and tan leather interior. That car sent a chill up my leg. If only had money.
  6. I was just defending females and some of there knowledge on cars is all.
  7. I went to work on a new Camaro Wallpaper, tell me what you think of it. Enjoy as always two sizes are included 1440X900 and 1280X960. Feel free to save them as always.
  8. Couldn't agree more.
  9. Great article. I would get a T/A over a Camaro anyday. Either way my son or I will own one of the "two" cars since the 'Bird is unlikely it will be a Camaro.
  10. Roger I understand your point about not needing a truck. But wanting one. I like trucks and car equally. I had considered a month or so ago a '07 (new style) Silverado 1500 regular cab, long box, LS, with a 4.8 with only 25K on it for 9,200 it was RWD. I wouldn't need a truck but could find a use for one over the summer doing landscaping. If you want that clean 2500 get it and get them to take another thousand off the price and go for it, if thats what you want!
  11. There are four types of car ladies... -Don't know jack $h!... (Toyota buyers because everyone else has one...) -Know something about vehicles and know the difference between a L4 and a V8... Some might value performance or buying American... -Have a good knowledge of vehicles and understand hp and torque and value "performance and well styled vehicles"... -Know as much as any other gear-head or car nut. I hope Miss Docherty is one of the last two, I assume she is as well. Most ladies fall into the first section I fear. My wife would fall into the second or third. It would drive me nuts being married to a female who is clue-less when it comes to cars. I am glad to hear this but it won't mean anything until 5 year down the road until Pontiac actually has a new products and a "clear plan". I just hope she is right.
  12. I certainly hope not. I don't believe this will happen. On a side note ALOT of young people were at the Pontiac display in Milwaukee and not very many young ones were in the Scion display.
  13. Exactly my point. On a side note Scion is nearly dead that is interesting and one Pontiac RWD sports sedan nearly outsold the entire line-up. Hmmmmmmmmmm, sounds like even Toyota has a few "flops".
  14. I love white cars, but either way in any color the new Solstice Coupe is hot, but not as hot as the G8 GXP or new Camaro SS. :AH-HA_wink:
  15. Yup, exactly no Pontiac equals less sales, less profit, and lots of pissed of loyal GM owners of Pontiac and other GM vehicles.
  16. Pontiac had a great month seriously considering they were down only 40%! The G8 had great sales but also nice rebates still impressive. Honestly I feared worse so along with everyone elses big slide including Toyota I say good job.
  17. So you think it is pretty good looking eh?
  18. Nope because cars like ours with real motors and OHV's will be long gone someday. It will be worth something just you wait, because not everyone will want a Pri-Ass wanna-be.
  19. I understand your point, but what they will be building will have no desire to me. I am starting to sound like 68!
  20. FOG is right on once again. I am remaining positive until I hear Pontiac is... ummm dead.
  21. Congrats you better keep that ol' girl because Uncle Sam won't allow you to have RWD, BOF, V8 powered SUV's someday soon. Very cool!
  22. If GM files chapter 11 all I see is a stronger GM with less gov't hoops to jump through, because now that the gov't has a hold of GM they will want to make GM build more and more and more hybrid and green cars. Before we know it cars like the CTS, G8, Camaro, Corvette, Solstice will all be a thing of the past. Next will come Sierra, Yukon, Silverado, Tahoe, Suburban you just wait. They ain't even started yet. That is what I fear so enjoy these great cars like the ZR-1, Camaro SS, CTS-V and G8 GXP even Solstice GXP while we have them, if the economy didn't kill demand for products like this the government will. Along with all the "green people" of Al Gore ilk. Just what I want to have happen. The word eight or even six cylinder along with turbo or supercharger will not be in anyones vocabulary anymore. If you think the cars we have suck now, and we bitch and complain about the next DTS/STS being a DT7 and Ep. II based you just wait, because the worst part is not over yet. You wonder why my son or I will be getting a new Camaro SS before they are gone? **There won't be ANOTHER ONE!** 68 someone I thought to be crazy orginally just might be right who needs new cars? Honestly a day will come like it has for 68 for the most part that he won't even consider nor desire current cars out on dealers lots. That day could come for me sooner rather than later. Leave it to Uncle Sam to "fix" Detriot like they have so many over things. My plan file chapter 11, fire all UAW, blue collar and white collar workers, then hire them all back with reasonable pay and no Union. Sales will suck for a while but then GM would actually have a fighting chance to beat Toyota, because all this bailout is about is saving the Union's ass. I don't think one politican in Washington save for a few really give a rat-ass about the Big Three, if you think they do then your easily fooled. They care about the UNION, and that is what is a large part of GM's problems. GM let the Union have to much and GM must make it right, or sadly they will die. I am already collecting badges and parts for my SLE so it can be repainted and kept for a classic, I have no doubt I'll do the same for a Camaro. That is how bad I fear it is, my Bonneville will be considered a "gas hog" and harmful to the world. Get ready boys because sales will keep slipping in the industry and we will be in for a load of $h!, what better time for GM to file chapter 11 and loose a few more sales when sales already suck? This bad economic time gives GM a chance for that and not to piss away tons of sales. I promise a stronger and more well balanced GM if chapter 11 is filed, then slam the door on Uncle Sam, government has proved to me they can't run a buisness well and why would I want them to run or "help" GM. Might as well push them into the ground. Thats my view.
  23. Your a smart-a$$.
  24. In the show or why did I take photos of it? --Because it was an SS!
  25. I happen to agree one traditional large FWD Cadillac isn't a bad idea, provided it has a V8 of some sort and has a six speed automatic standard. I am actually happy, and you know how much I like RWD but I want a balance of the two.
