Intrepidation

So...hardtop with a fixed triangle window in back = EPIC FAIL. This thing looks better than the sedan but that's not saying much. Once again, it looks like Daimler kept the guys in charge of styling Chrysler's interiors. I looks downright cheap. The dash doesn't even look like it has stitching on it...the freakin' Ram has stitching on it's dash!

Cool...always nice to hear good news.

I think I'll have a burger for dinner tonight.

Idiots.

The 300M was the very best Chrysler had to offer and was actually good enough to be compared with luxury brands (their entry models, but still) and not be embarrassed by them.

Welcome back Camino! We missed you. And for us computer nuts, give us the specs on your new rig.

The A5 is easily my favorite of Audi's lineup...I like it even more than the R8.

That's a nice setup as well, although a bit more expensive. You could also mix and match our two setups.

I saw 5 new Mabius today.

The RX's design inside and out is a laughable devolution of the last one. The Infiniti is nice but also quite polarizing. I think this has that Swedish "keep it clean and simple" look to it like Volvos do. Also, being a Saab, the fact that it's FWD isn't an issue since that's the brand's heritage VS Cadillac's RWD heritage. If the FWD RX can command a premium I think this can...if the interior is up to snuff.

The sad part is that the politicians care more about the CEOs, and at the end of the day the CEOs will have made a crap load of money regardless whether or not they run the company into the ground and screw millions of people. The car is just a victim.

No because I don't pull over and question every person I see driving a vehicle. You have to try to understand: in order to get a somewhat accurate statistic you need a large sample over a broad region. Not with 2 miles of where you live.

I like bring threads back to life too.

I think we've been over this before: what you see locally is often not an accurate representation of what goes on in the entire country.

Also, for a devision that seems to claim itself as being able to do no wrong, I wonder why GME/Opel/Vauxhall have been looked down upon by Europeans for years?

It wasn't really directed at you, althought it may have seemed like it since you claimed to being killing Saturn originally to bring it in line with the "corporate structure". However certainly a lot of people in charge are to blame for poorly handling the company for many years. And if you think that the corporate structure GM has is working well for it, I beg to differ.

GM had decades to get it's brands managed and in order. It had the money then to provide them with distinct product, for many years. Yet it never did, so now the lack of money, which is mostly their own fault (with decades of crap and half-assed products with only a few exceptions) is just a convenient excuse why they have to kill off brands. Sometimes it's really frustrating...because even now GM doesn't seem to know what to do. meanwhile, over at Ford...

Really it just needs to go down to Chevy, Buick, Cadillac, because that's all GM seems to be able to handle...but even then we've got FWD Caddies coming left and right...so I dunno if they can even manage 3 brands. there's no proper replacement for the STS/DTS, there wasn't even a planned one to be canceled, they just never seemed to bother. I doubt we will see Alpha. Hell I bet the new small Cadillac will be a Delta II.

Yeah because apparently you guys at GM really know how to successfully structure the corporation.

I read the title and who it was from an skipped the rest. TTAC is such a garbage website.

Funny, the Enclave has done a pretty damn good job at appealing to younger people. WHy? Because it's the first Buick in a long time that isn't styled boringly, and isn't half-assed. The new LaCrosse looks to continue this. Buick makes sense because it still has cache as being premium.

Last time I checked Intel's Quads had better motherboard support...however I'd have to investigate now that's it's been several months.

Dude, you are starting to troll the forums and find any excuse to turn something fun into "OMG RWD IS THE BESTEST EVAR AND FWD SUCKS SO MUCH!!1111" It gets annoying after a while, especially when it shows up in every other thread which has "FWD" in it. You don't like it, we get it, but you don't have to ruin it for everyone else. I'm sure it would piss you off if in every thread about classic cars some one started posting "OMG GAS GUZZLING PIECES OF $h! THAT WEIGH 4 TONS, CAN'T GO AROUND A CORNER, GET .0000000000002 MPGS!!1111 Just, please, turn it down a notch or 3.

I tried looking for it...the forum search engine sucks ass . It's there somewhere. You should ask Satty, he has a knack for bringing old threads back from the dead.

Sorry but it's just irresponsible. I hate it when the ricers do it its no different when someone in any other kind of car does it. What if a person or car pulls out unexpectedly? Takes a lot longer to stop from 70 than 30. If you wanna go as fast as possible save it for the race track...that's what it's for after all. Or at least the empty highway. Plus this isn't some desolate rural area, this is f@#king Lowell. I speed as well but not like that. I'm sure I'll get a 5 page story about why it's ok to do it but it won't change my opinion.
