  3. As I see the new Lexus (help me out on the model number), the Maxima/Altima and now the 2010 LaCrosse, I think the short stubby rear deck lid is, for the most part, hideous. They are sedans, not fastbacks. Not only that, it makes most of the trunk hidden, whereas with a "normally" proportioned rear trunk lid, you can actually look down at things from eye level and move them in, out or around. Maybe, in a rare instance, they might be ok, but mostly they are not ok in my book. Your thoughts/vote?
  4. For me, the answer is: absolutely I can't even fathom Palin and her family in Washington, let alone running the country if that should ever come to pass... I vote Republican about 1/2 the time, Dem the other 1/2....I was set to vote for McCain, but was waiting to see how he would round out his ticket...NOT.

  16. True, some people want the polarizing design. Look at the early PT Cruiser buyers and all the "dudes" in Dakota/Ram trucks. However, the quality issue cannot be discounted. When they gave me a Sebring convertible 4-cyl as a rental when they ran out of the economy cars and I saw what that cost versus my new LaCrosse, I thought "NFW" - no 'effin way. It was a $ 25,000 lawn mower with piss-poor build quality. GM = Great Machines

  21. that's hilarious You mean Puerto Rican??? The NE primarily has Puerto Ricans and the SW primarily has Mexicans. They are nationalities...not dirty words.
  22. The Buick Special was a poor man's Regal. You could only get a V6, there were hardly any options available...in fact, there was vinyl flooring, no lighter, and black seat belts. It was the entry model. Yes, as with the 76-77 Cutlasses, the sides were "slabbier" and, therefore, better, IMO. The proof is that sales shot up. My favorite, just because it was the first car I really noticed, will always be the 75 Olds Cutlass Salon coupe with the smaller V8 in Persimmon (rust) / white landau / tan cloth buckets and the color-keyed rallye wheels. I'd give my left nut for one of those....well, maybe not...
  23. Well PCS, I guess I'll never understand the Mediterranean male's fascination with Nordic women when the most beautiful women are right in their own back yards. ZL, o que e que voce va fazer pelo suo aniversario?
  24. My Dad bought the Cutlass Supreme new and then added an ultra-low mileage Regal of the same year that a British lady in L.A. was selling just because "it was there." The Cutlass was Olds 350 V8 powered and the Regal had the odd-firing 3.8 V6. The amount of room under the hood was absurd, but it was severely underpowered. Now, did you have the opera-windowed coupe or the fastback coupe with more triangular rear quarter window? V6 or V8? That Century with the opera window and the lean-back triple-slat grille was interesting. You didn't see many then and you don't see many now. Every now and then, I will actually see a 76 or 77 Regal coupe.
