Chevy Aveo named Most Economical New Car
Anyway, maybe I'm being a bit hard on the Aveo. It's certainly not the ugliest or worst car out there, but it could be a lot better.

Happy Birthday Moltar!
Happy Birthday!

Gauntlet thrown: Corvette ZR1 laps the 'Ring in 7:26.4
I think they may have held back. The GTR Spec-V coming nd will try to beat this time, but if it's slower than the Vette can really do they may be just setting a trap for Nissan to just beat it, and then beat Nissan with a new, lower time.

Chevy Aveo named Most Economical New Car
Indeed I do, however it at least looks modern and not like a bland eco-box. Plus I'd hope with this new supposed commitment to product quality and such that they would make it, you know, not suck. Unless they would like to take a backseat to Ford.

Chevy Aveo named Most Economical New Car
The Aveo is a piece of crap, and it's a penalty box. I think we'll have to wait for the Verve before we have any good alternatives to the Mini (which is excellent but expensive) and the Astra, which is good but has some shortcomings. And because I know there are some diehard fans who will take offense to it, just remember it is Korean, just like the Rio and Accent. You get what you pay for. I hope it's replacement is the Beat, because that looks pretty damn cool. I'm with the others about getting a bike. You keep the car you have and get a bike top supplement it. So if you have a big car or truck that you actually use every now and then have a very thirsty bike that you can use most of the year.

Speculation: Chrysler to Declare Bankruptcy
I heard speculation that cat barf will be worth it's weight in gold within the next few months. A friend of a friend's mother's sister's aunt's uncles, nephew's father 6 times removed swears he heard about it on a radio station that was very staticy and in Russian.

Some late '08 changes for Malibu...4-cyl LTZ package, some wheels
I like those dacsia spoke wheels. I'm not a huge fan of crhome per say, but they look much better than cheesy hub caps. i wonder how much they are and if they would fit on my car? I personally like silver painted or ploished wheels, and hyper bkac...but I don't really like black wheels.

Spied! Subaru's new RWD coupe
That's what I was about to say. Or shall we make fun of the Volt spyshots because it looks like a piece of crap, ugly last-gen Malibu that was assembled by blid monkeys?

Opel Insignia
We drove through a big thunderstorm with heavy rain on my commute home a couple days ago. I really wished for a rear wiper because the slope of my rear window causes water to flow more slowly down it. It was difficult to see anything out back.

C&G Buick Census
1. 0 2. I love the Invicta, but I doubt I could take it over the RWD cars I love more.
-
C&G GMC Truck Census
1.0 2. I do like the Sierra Denali, but if I were to buy a truck the Ram is more appealing to me.
-
C&G Cadillac Census
1.0 2. I love the CTS, and the CT-V, although if I bought one I would probbaly go for the V6 DI.
-
C&G Saab Census
1. 0 2. When I test drove a 9-3 I fell in love withe quirkiness of the car...however currently I would only consider used, as nothing the make or have in the pipeline (all of one CUV that we've actually seen spyshots of) excites me the way a RWD muscle car or sports sedan does.

C&G Saturn Census
1.0 2. Not in two tyears, but I have always loved the Sky. If I had the spare cash for a weekend warrior I'd get one. However it would have to wait in lne behind the Camaro, Challenger, and G8.

C&G Hummer Census
1. 0 2. Never

C&G Pontiac census
Also notice which models are getting the attention...but conversely two members just bought G6's...

Take the census
I wonder if this would be, what would you, if any consider purachsing in 2 years? Since most of us probably can't actually buy more than 1 car at a time, but it would be good to see what brand was the most likely to be purchased.
-
C&G Pontiac census
1.) 0 2.) I want the Camaro and a Challenger first, but a G8 is most certainly on my list. It's just ashame I'd have to get a manual unless I paid extra for a GXP.

GMI: 2010 model Saturn Aura "On Hold"
That sums it up in a nutshell. I would also like to point out that despite fuel prices, Honda is developing an RWD RL and a rumered V8 along with a V10 for their NSX.

Caddy Lambda confirmed
Tell that to all the assholes who speak Spanish and refuse to learn English, so now, more and more we are seeing labels with Spanish and English...sometimes the Spanish is actually above the English. That's sickening. Another rant for another day. Meqantime, like I said earlier, Cadillac appears to be spiraling the drain again with product plans like this. You don't biuld a respectible lexury marque by using platforms you'll find on Chevies.
