*taps foot* I'm still waiting................. And, uh, yes, cinnamon. And, uh, yes, as I mentioned in last night's post, I have driven it. Sadly, no helicopters tho :(.

*grins* Thank you Z28, ocn & blackviper :). *pauses and turns to NOS* Bro....first you skip out on me (i.e. don't have time for me) when I'm in Michigan, then you turn around and post a pic of one of THOSE cars? *shakes head* Where the heck is "respect for your elders" these days? ;) LOL! Just kiddin', of course :). And, Sixty8 ... awesome pics, bro ... thank you for posting those :). Brightened my day..... Heh...btw, I see your sig has KITT in it. One of the guys on the MyMonte board (5th gen, 1995-99) has his car looking very similar in style to KITT (black, similar wheels, the red light in the grill area) ... and, quite frankly, it is, indeed, awesome :). Again, thank you everyone :)!

*glares at Sixty8* Dangumit, what the heck is the story on this Caddy addition for ya? Some family friends of ours have a '79 Cadillac Sedan D'Elegance (iirc) ... cinnamon brown color ... it is GORGEOUS! John let me drive it when I was visiting them in TN a year ago ... he he he Cort, "Mr MC" / "Mr Road Trip", 32swm/pig valve/pacemaker MC:family.IL.guide.future = http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/ Models.HO = http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/trainroom.html "I kept my heart hidden" ...

I'm currently 31 ... and agree with much of what has already been posted, AH-HA....

*chuckles* A friend of mine did just about this very thing a few years ago. He bought a used 2000 Chevy pick-up, which gave him a bunch of problems. He turned around a month later, sold the Tahoe to an unsuspecting young kid and purchased a used 2000 GMC pick-up. The GMC has never given him problems (still has it, in fact). Thus, he swears he will never own another Chevy ... sad part is, I had to point out to him that the trucks are virtually identical....he he heh.

*nods* I had a blast that afternoon for lunch, too, Josh. Definitely glad we were able to work our schedules out to eat lunch ... and to be near the Tech Center was a definite plus ;). Heh...can you believe it has been a MONTH ago already? Aye...time flies....

WOW! Seeing those pics kind of makes me want to hop on a plan and fly to a number of different countries...just to check out the show rooms in person ;). Interesting...very interesting....

I like that idea ... very much! Now, who is going to produce it? ;) Cort, "Mr MC" / "Mr Road Trip", 31swm/pig valve/pacemaker MC:family.IL.guide.future = http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/ Models.HO = http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/trainroom.html "There's so much I need to say to you" ...

LOL! Heh...you might be right ;).

dangumit...just my luck...he he heh.

....which would be reminiscent/preview of the Saturn "quad coupes"...or whatever they are called.... Hmmm.....

Friendly reminder in case anyone wants to join those of us meeting up in Dubuque THIS Sunday.....

Alrighty....so, anyone interested in the IL cruise? Lookin' at October 22....

*nods* Thank you, HE! I was stunned when I saw that pic for the first time.... Course, now that I've looked at it a few times, it looks less'n'less like the Sky/Solstice duo ... but, still ... kind of eerie, if you ask me....

This sounds as clear as.... ...mud. Er, or something like that.... *shakes head* Aye....all of this talk/speculation is starting to wear very thin......

Oh my goodness.... Is it just me ... or does that concept look a bit like the Saturn Sky (and it's Pontiac counterpart)...? Regardless, I like it :).

Sounds like a plan, Josh! I'll try to remember to let you know far enough ahead of time that I'm coming to Detroit so we can set something up... As for GM's mega celebration in a few years...did I miss something?

CRAP! For some reason, I was under the impression that it is not open to the public. Had I known it is open to the public, I would've taken the time to go see it when I was in Detroit, especially since Josh and I ate lunch right across the street from the Tech Center....aye :(. Ah, well ... that gives me another reason to get back to Detroit ;). No, I got your point. The difference, as others have already pointed out, is that GM owns this Museum ... Toyota does not own that place in Chicago.....

A little anecdote to "back up" those crash test ratings.... If any of you are in the Chicagoland area, then perhaps you saw the story about the volleyball coach that was rearended in her new Chevrolet Cobalt ... a semi rear ended her and crushed her car into the semi in front of her. Not only is she alive, but she dropped by the school today to visit her team.....

*chuckles and bites lip ... hard* He he he...I've no idea where you've been, HE ... but, glad to know you are "on board" with the Intimidator concept now ;).

Hmmm.... First, the Heritage Museum is owned by GM.... And, second, I coulda sworn that the GM Heritage Museum/Center isn't open to the public anyway....

...took the words right out of my mouth, er fingers. *sighs* Sure wish we'd see less talk and more action....

Heh...forgot to mention that when I was younger, I... ...had "mini" cars that I "drove" as I walked.... ...believed that all cars had a combination of the personalities of KITT, Herbie & The General Lee..... He he heh.

...and how it has been since this generation was introduced in 2000. My former 2000 mc LS had the indicator in the dash (bottom portion of the speedometer) and to the side of the gear shift lever.

*shakes head* I heard about this the other day ... I still can't believe Toyota had the nerve to rent the place to keep regular visitors out.... But, of course, no word on this on the local TV newscasts...that I know of, anyway....
