Avalon shows dent in Toyota quality
Didn't know that CR's auto reviews is run by a Chinese. More proof that (most) Chinese people are just blind about Toyota. I'm embarrased and hopeless.

Uncovered: The next VUE/Opel Antara!
That gray bumper needs to go. What is this? '92 Cavalier? Chinese =/= Korean.

LN2 Vortec? That was the one in my Cavalier. It is an OK engine, but rather bad on gas.

Calling all Cobalts
Well, not sure if this is related, but a radio problem actually happened to my G6. I turned on the ignition on, and the radio was completely off. I had to turn off, open the door to kill the power, then turn it on again.

Kappa II: Making a business case
But that platform is a midsize, much like Sigma. We're talking a tiny compact chassis, unless it's as flexible as we hope it is.

Little features you love
G6: - Fully automatic door locks, engages when out of gear, unlocks when park. - Express open windows and sunroof, too bad there's no express close. - DIC. Fuel consumption and OLS. - Fold down seat release is in the trunk. It would be nice though if it can be released on the inside of the car as well. Loved it when I forgot something in the trunk in the Cavalier, I just tug the seats down and grab it. - Electric power steering. Yes, it's numb and non-performance related, but I love how light the steering is. Good thing I have it now, because 2007 it's gone for V6. So my car is special

Kappa II: Making a business case
I'm thinking if there is such a platform, keep it more biased to Pontiac. Suits Pontiac's image. The Aveo should be enough for low end Chevy, maybe a Matiz or Tigra as well. Buicks should be bigger, no less than Epsilon. Kappa probably won't fit. Cadillac, well, as I mentioned before, an SLK fighter. Sedans can get Sigma II. Saturn can get an updated Sky, which will underpin the Opel/Vauxhall GT as well. Oh, and right hand drive models. But that's it. Astra should cover the compact slot well. As for Pontiac, can't get enough of it. Updated Solstice, and a compact sedan/coupe/hatchback.

Free Ride in a Police Car...?
I was working late with my dad once, and he cut his hand from a saw. He was sent to the hospital via ambulance, and I was later taken to the hospital via a police van. This was back in Hong Kong.

ACURA KILLS RSX COUPE
Can't doubt the RSX is a good car, that's probably why they still make them in Japan. Right up to the moment you need to sit in the back. I'm biased against coupes, so...

Calling someone to shut up on an open discussion isn't exactly mature, I suppose.I'm just responding to what I see as well.

And now we're back to the same old topic on how the competitor's engine is better than GM's pushrod... Sad how this topic never goes away and those import fanboys just bring it up over and over again...
