2 G.M. Brands, a Similar Car, but Very Different Results
sciguy_0504 replied to buyacargetacheck's topic in General Motors
I find myself agreeing with the article. The SKY is the more successful vehicle because, in my opinion, it is the nicer vehicle, better looking vehicle, and was the first vehicle that really starting making people notice Saturn. Saturn is slowly but surely bettering itself and is definitely making desireable products. -
Motortrend - 2008 Accord vs 2007 Camry Comparison Test
sciguy_0504 replied to frogger's topic in Honda
Toyota best update the Camry's interior for the MCE. -
The sedan's exterior is horrible. It looks Korean, like it's trying too hard, and rips-off too many other designs. Both interiors (base and up-level) seem nice...better than Camry. I prefer the Camry and Malibu exterior design. The coupe is hot, though, and should be a big seller. Aggressive, sporty and luxurious. I still hate the floating hood, though. I'd take an Altima coupe over it.
-
I hate the hood but I do agree with FOG...the Caliber SRT4 looks more intergrated and less ricey than the HHR SS. Plus, that power is hot. I hope Chrysler has put a damper on torque steer, though. That must be some major pull.
-
Pricing looks very attractive. These should fly off lots.
-
Good review. Handsome exterior, fantastic interior, good dynamics. It's a shame about the manual tranny, though.
-
The Aura launch didn't go as well as hoped (or planned). I hope what GM has in store for the Malibu is better. $100 million should be spent wisely...only on good marketing. Otherwise, it's a waste. I don't think the new 'Bu will beat the Camry or Accord, though. You can't do it in such a short period of time. The car may be better than those models but the market doesn't see it that way.
-
Looks kind of ricey and the A-pillar gauge is laughable but I can't wait to see how this thing performs. I like the normal HHR...an all-around good vehicle...and this should appeal to people who want some more fun.
-
I have a soft spot for the last-gen M, too. There's something cool about it. Very exclusive...because it sold like crap.
-
The exterior looks good, maybe a little too droopy, but it's good enough. The interior looks very luxurious. I think Infiniti finally got the memo on how to build interiors good enough to put in luxury cars. The best thing? 290HP.
-
I hated how ricey this looked in the promo photos so I'm glad to see it doesn't look as bad in the flesh. However, it could still be a little better. I'll go against the grain and say I like the exhaust. I'll also add that I think the design of the IS is great...stylish and sporty with a dash of luxury. The new C-class doesn't hold a candle to it, IMO, especially with the way too Chrysler interior.
-
So it's not a sports car...then again, what midsize crossover is? The 6-speed auto should be standard. I'm guessing there's a capacity issue. I'm 5'7 and was comfortable in the third row in the current Highlander. I was there for about 1.5 hours, mostly highway driving and someone was sitting next to me.
-
The interior looks bland and cheap. Very little bright work or accents to make it look higher-end, just a bunch of grey plastic. It's unfortunate, really. I LOVE the gauges, though. It's a shame Dodge spent so much money on them in relation to the rest of the dashboard.
-
I like it. The wheels and color are sexay.

How is our economy in the crapper?

July 2007 Sales: Mitsubishi Motors North America
sciguy_0504 replied to VenSeattle's topic in 2007 Sales Archive
We almost got an Outlander but decided on the Murano. However, the salesman at Mitubishi said they were outselling the combined PBG dealer that the same company owns. -
July 2007 Sales: Toyota Motor Corporation
sciguy_0504 replied to mustang84's topic in 2007 Sales Archive
Not a bad month, I'd say. -
The video looks cheap.
-
I'm interested in seeing what Acura comes up with the for the new TL. The current TL is competitive. More dramatic styling would be a plus. Will Acura stick with FWD?
-
Needs more power but it would fit well into Scion's line-up.
-
The artist's rendition is interesting. Not what I expected.
-
Just wait a few years and get a great used one.
-
I agree. Even though I think it looks amazing, it could be a little bit wider and/or shorter. I think the new WRX has a lot to fear from this car.
-
Besides the hefty-looking rear 3/4 area, I think it looks damn good, especially from the front end.
-
It looks good but it brings nothing new to the table. The wood (is it real?) looks like it was taken from a CLS, the nav/hvac/radio controls out of a few Infinitis, the fake metal looks cheap compared to the rest of the interior and the grey dashboard doesn't match.
