  1. "it's not product" "the right product makes the difference" ?
  2. yet, I am very.............................. DRAWN TO HER I wonder what her favorite liqeur is...........
  3. UGH! that Carol Cain is NASTY! A definite TWO BAGGER!
  4. "without directly answering your questions with specifics"..........
  5. chevy needs a kick ass camry killer and a whole new line of crossovers. they need a competitive minivan and a camaro. they need a large RWD based car like a new impala. they will soon need to redo the cobalt. they need new vans to battle the sprinter in the commerical market. the trailblazer could stand an interior update. chevy needs a cheap convertible. i think a large but simple hatchback called the chevette with hybrid and diesel options is needed. they need a new monte. pontiac. they need a camry sized car that has serious performance and i would keep it FWD based. they could also use a serious RWD based sedan that is about the same size or larger. i would have one crossover akin to the new CX-5, but with a real motor and without the pu$$-y styling. I would take the Grand Am/G6 down to a size between the last GA and current G6. A GTO like coupe is needed with RWD. A smaller TT sized RWD based coupe is needed, i.e. a 2+2. I am ok with a G5 type car as long as it has a better performance option than cobalt. I would consider a kick ass vibe replacement if they could make it look bitchen. rest later.
  6. the hp ratings are good, which to me suggests maybe the same thing that occured with hyundais 4 cylinders from a few years ago.....underpowered/overrated the compass is a vue competitor and a way for jeep to use the cache of their name to peddle cute utes as well. i love the caliber, but hate the scrunched roof. it looks cool, but the windshield is a mailslot. i can see now with the raised roof on the compass how the interior would seem more spacious and less claustrophobic. i'm not fond of the looks, but a stick and AWD has merit for me. Still, I'd rather do the SRT Caliber. The Caliber is meant for the tuner/hot hatch crowd. The jeep makeover makes the same car more into an SUV. DCX can serve 2 markets then with essentially the same car. nice job.

    Spied??

    i think the interior is pretty decent. not edgy but very nice.

    damn. on autoweek CC someone had a link for some dead clear interior pics of the new Elantra. let me search for those
  9. I love beef jerky. The saltier the better. And sometimes you gotta keep rolling it around in your mouth to get in the right place to gnaw on it a little before you can swallow the whole piece of meat. When you're done your whole jaw hurts but for some reason its wholly satisfying nonetheless. I've taken in a whole bag of beef jerky before. Its like I can't stop. L/M meats, Grand forks ND makes tremendous real beef jerky. i think you can even get it on the web. in fact, one night i spent like 2 hours shopping on the internet for beef jerky, but wussed out on buying osme because its too expensive.
  10. "would you like some nuts with your tubesteak"?
  11. i wanna know what some of the previous posters are smoking, likenewbie and carbiz, because if what you say is true then GM would be selling cars at full MSRP they would have 50% market share and none of the GM's sh1t hits the fan business would be happening.
  12. KIA AMANTI!!!! this thing has all the style of a KIA AMANTI!!!!! i knew it, it was on the tip of my tongue for like 3 days!~!!!!!
  13. at some point you'd hope GM would stop selling VHS and try to figure out what DVD even is.
  14. you need both fantastic cars and fantastic marketing. again, like I said before, its the cars. Buickman, its pointless to whine about the marketing when its the cars that are suffering. Go tell your head buddies at GM to spend a little effort and money and stop putting cheap ass plastic all over the insides of their cars and tell them to stop pawning off antiquated pushrod motors in 3/4 of the car lineup. Look at the Equinox, worst auto interior available. Chinese pushrod motor. Or tell GM to make a new platform. That LaCrosse you sell could stand a new platform that doesn't require them to design the whole car around hard points that make for a horribly packaged solution. tell your GM buddies to give you all new models every 4 years instead of the LeSabre which was the same from about 92 until just recently. its not worth whining about the marketing. The cars are in need of attention. It would be a better use of your time to shift your enegergies into getting GM to UPGRADE THE DAMN CARS!!!!!
  15. I like solar panels on the house, I just hear its a bit costly for the mainstream yet. my grandma had em on her house back in the early 80's and got a grant from the county to have them put on her house.
  16. rug munchers, yech.
  17. some folks (purdueguy) don't get that if we all used electricity for our cars, the demand would probably triple or something and that would simply jack up the price huge. its current 'non-volatility' would instantly be gone.
  18. how bout searching the house to find all those naughty pics and videos your parents have......mom modeling for dad, etc. great blackmail stuff.
  19. wow, the article said NOTHING. do they always keep things this simplistic in the japan press? if this were the US press and writing about say, Rick Wagoner, they would be blistering pieces with all sorts of speculation and damnation.
  20. maybe toyota knows even more about about its soon to be discovered future f8k ups then any of us care to wax rhetoric about. or, his daughter is out of college now and he wanted more free time to retire and do things with her
  21. TECHNOTRONIC - this beat is technotronic
  22. yeah, those mercedes taxis and A2's. ....are so premium.......
  23. i SO dig the fender proportions of the front CTS fenders and also the really small overhang. I love that look. the 'wheels to the edge'. about perfect. Not extreme like a MINI. And so different for GM, all GM's FWD cars have MASSIVE draconian era overhangs. SIGH. well, when the new cts comes out, why not rebadge the current one with a pontiac badge and front and rear ends and sell it? LOL......
  24. as nice as those wheels are (imagine nice wheels on a GM car....) I would think it would look much better with the same simple 5/6 spoke deals like on the Volvo S60R..... and i love the body color grille.....for awhile I began to like chrome againand now after having too much chrome again i want no chrome.....just like that CtS SPORT!
  25. track list please
