In need of a new car
I dunno about those little cars... I guess if you need one now, then you need one now. Ever consider Dodge Intrepid's or 1998-on Chrysler Concorde's? I think they are some of Chrysler's nicest cars within the past 15-20 years.

Chevrolet Captiva Coming To Canada
Maybe, but those dead buttons and that "storage" box scream "cheap" Vehicles should have good looking interiors without the NAV screen, anyway.

My God... that's one hideous center stack...

New GM Key Fob
I don't care much for key fobs. Maybe it might be lost on you older dudes, but there's something awesome about sticking the key into the column, cranking the engine, and feeling the rush of a V8 diesel through your hands. Oh well...

GM Responds to Roadster Complaints
Well I know up here in Canada, the ads for the Solstice show it driving down a road and all of a sudden transforming into a giant flock of birds flying free... Aaaaand.... if you right click on the image, you will see it's from GM Canada. There's no hint of the Firebird whatsoever. Sorry guys. Looks like Canada broke your guys' balls again.

For all those who say the weak Yen doesn't matter
Keep in mind that Microsoft introduced an OS that the lay person could use. And Apple kinda chose the path they took by making their own computers, and components. People vote with their dollar. But when it comes to Toyota, well, a monopoly is impossible. Way too much competition. That Bush Tundra is pretty damn funny. . Who the hell would buy that?!

Edmunds Evaluation: 2007 Acura MDX
I saw one at work yesterday, and that grille is still obnoxious.

GM Responds to Roadster Complaints
... They're even addressing the transmission?! Wow... I've pinched myself, hit myself, and hit my head against the table... and I'm still not dreaming! Is this the new GM we have been waiting for?

BRITNEY GOT HER SPERM
This proves that Britney is pretty damn stupid. Child Services should have the balls to go and save these kids, and give them to a family who doesn't think their lives are worth a smutty sex tape. I feel really, REALLY, bad for those kids...

RWD G6 rumor?
I'd like to see more RWD vehicles in Pontiac's lineup, but something like the G6 should be FWD with optional AWD if possible. You CAN make fun to drive, impressive FWD vehicles. Give it great design, and real flair, and I'll discount the lack of RWD.

Thank God for kids, eh?

Cadillac's new 'world beater' SRX will appeal to n
This won't raise sales, unfortunately, but it should give SRX drivers a smug feeling when passing the RX330. GM and Cadillac earned this. And I look forward to reading similar reviews of other GM vehicles in the not TOO distant future.

Pontiac Fiero $800
I wonder if the Getrag would hook up to it? Now that'd be fun!

Pontiac Fiero $800
And when you get a little more cash... dropping in a V8 or supercharged V6 wouldn;t hurt either :AH-HA_wink:.

PS3/Wii: Anyone getting one or know someone who is
I want a Wii, but I'll likely not get one because I think I'm getting a little old for video games, plus I'm content playing my oldies. Plus, I happen to hate Sony, because they have pulled bull$h! on me twice. They installed that CD "root-kit" on my family's computer, and I had problems with my PS2 that they said could only be solved if I voided its warranty. This pretty much sums up the Wii vs PS3 argument in my opinion. Reg may like this video too http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2964751562925463883

Another HUMMER in 2009
Uh... if it's a smaller HUMMER and has a little less weight than the H3, then I think the I-5 should be a good call... really!

Lambda mini for Chevy and GMC!!
Yeah... this better not be a GMC... the Lambda is one thing, but a microvan is another... Make it a Saturn or Chevrolet and I'll be way happier.

MT: Camry SE V6 vs 06 Altima SE-R
I would have agreed with you Bizz, and I likely would have said something similar to what you and avant1963 said. Why? Because SS used to actually mean you got extra chrome and bucket seats... However, buyers in this day and age regard SS as performance, and must have a great powertrain and muscle. So one hand, GM succeeded. The Malibu SS has extra chrome, and a few other bonuses that differentiate it from the pack. On the other hand, GM failed by sticking in the 3.9 and not having a manual option or 5-6 speed auto...

2008 Chevrolet Malibu - Name
I don't see it happening. What I do see happening is if the upcoming Malibu flops or keeps the stodgy image, the following car may lose the name. Think Cavalier -> Cobalt...

Vintage GM Videos
Amazing that people could sit through a commercial that long and "boring" (aka, no explosions, boobs, etc) back then? Better times?... Very interesting to watch. I love these old commercials.
