  1. REPORT: GM's RWD architecture will downsize and survive Autoblog is reporting that GM's superb RWD Zeta architecture may yet live on, however it will be downsized to increase efficiency. This is of course, great news for RWD fans, but it would also make sense to actually utilize one of the best platforms they have and spent millions of dollars to develope. Could GM actually do something so logical? We'll have to wait and see. http://www.cheersandgears.com/index.php?sh...c=29524&hl=

  3. Fit wait for the Fiesta
  4. Because that is easy, effective, and makes logical sense. You know GM doesn't work that way.
  5. That's both funny and sad.
  6. As far as your sig goes. Certainly should try for something more positive. After all, being pessimistic all the time doesn't do anyone any good (I'm just saying in general, not directed at you). So find something you like and have a sig made of it.
  7. You may just get your wish after all.
  8. That's what friends are for!
  9. No it doesn't come off as an April Fool's joke. If you've read Autoblog throughout the day they've been posting actual news. Plus, there is always a giveaway to a fake...something is always amiss. This doesn't come off that way.
  10. General Motors may be lacking the cash to develop any new rear-drive platforms, but reports out of Australia suggest that the existing Zeta platform that underpins such models as the Holden Commodore and new Chevrolet Camaro will carry on for at least another decade. GM's Australian subsidiary only finished development of the current Zeta platform a few years ago, and it's not about to flush that down the toilet. However the next Commodore, currently sold in the North American market as the Pontiac G8, is likely to downsize for the next generation, anticipated to debut in 2013 and carry on through 2020. Along with the reduced size and heft, the General could use smaller, more efficient, though still powerful engines, employing direct injection and/or turbocharging like the Cadillac and Saab variants of the V6 already used by Holden. As we've discovered with vehicles like the Pontiac G8, GTO and the new Camaro, what's good for the Australian market is, in General Motor's eyes, good for North America, so fans of rear-drive American muscle have some hope to hold onto yet, mate.

  11. K guys, I'm giving a verbal warning: keep the mud slinging out, save it for the Politics section.
  12. Yes.
  13. So has anyone followed the ump yet?
  14. I can dig it!
  15. 173k However it spent it's life being serviced at a Chrysler dealership, and they said no major engine work or transmission work was done. Also there's that 215,000 Shadow, and we;eve had that since it was blow 100k However, if you buy a 90's minivan you will need like 5 new transmissions every 6 miles.
  16. Mine outlasted the 195.000 engine, so there.
  17. Mopar or No Car Chrysler LLC to buy out General Motors It seems inevitable that GM is spiraling down the drain, and the automotive landscape as we know it is about t change. Where does that leave a GM enthusiast website? Simple: since Chrysler LLC is in much better shape, and has actually been making record profits, it has been announced that Chrysler will buy out GM. Sources familiar with the matter (but who wish to remain anonymous) have confirmed through unwritten material that Chrysler will buy out GM, kill Opel, Buick, Vauxhall, Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, Buick, and Saturn. They will leave Cadillac as the luxury brand, and Chrysler will slot where Buick does now. Pontiac will be combined with Dodge, and no one gives a crap about Hummer. With this breaking development that has been undoubtedly confirmed by unnamed sources, we have decided to change our website name to reflect the new company: Cheers and Mopars. We will be affiliating with new site Cheers and Rondels, so depending on the skin you have chosen you will see a different name and banner. And thus begins Chrysler plan for world domination (and controlling the food supply). Follow the Jump for full details on this breaking news. News Brief on the buyout of GM by Chrysler
  18. Anytime someone want s performance car, or something RWD.
  19. OH T3H NOES!!!! How will we turn left without it?!
  20. If that's the case, try the Challenger. It's tuned differently than it's LX mates. You know me, I have to throw suggestions for Chrysler products in where applicable.
  21. That sucks dude, but keep in mind: You have a job you have a house you have a family So you can't have screwed up that bad.
  22. :rotflmao:
  23. I could always experiment with the couple door panels I have in the garage. I just don't want it to start coming off in like a year.
