My Last Post on C&G
What if OC were a straight female posting pics of guys she'd "like to have naked"? OMG I'M SO OFFENDED.

Cadillac SLS from China
Wow, this is wonderful! This car makes sense in the US lineup because it is actually luxurious and large enough next to the CTS. Maybe make all the new bits in Shanghai for everyday low prices!

Good news! Edit: Damn, nevermind. This is for reliability, not road test.

What would you like to see from GM
Something that gets at least 30 MPG city.

Edmunds Long Term Test. 2005 Cobalt.
Honda, Toyota, Opel, BMW, Ford, Peugeot, Citroen, Renault, Mazda do... The Astra's 1.8T VVT Ecotec could probably fit in the Cobalt. It makes 140 bhp, which is only 5 less than the big 2.2.

Its DIY Day for my Aurora
Looks great. I know some people like to sand their calipers smooth, get it polished, and then clearcoat 'em.

Edmunds Long Term Test. 2005 Cobalt.
GM should offer an economy version of the Cobalt. A 1.8 VVT might produce similar power and offer better economy.

TCC Test: 2007 BMW X5 4.8i
This is the first 7-seat crossover that doesn't look motherly. BMW did a good job with the styling.

GO VOTE!
Heh, I took home a "NO ELECTIONEERING WITHIN 1000 FT OF POLLS" poster.

GO VOTE!
I worked at the polling station but didn't vote (still 17). Marked off names, gave out stickers, and recited directions. Oh well, worth the $105 and extra credit.

It looks great in grey!

GM Won't Abandon Electric Car
Cool. I never got hydrogen fuel cells to begin with, since it's essentially liquid electricity.

Chrysler already offers $1k back on '07 Sebring
'07 Fusion AWDs have $1,000 cash, too. Why don't they price them properly to begin with?

They're cool like that. The last family sedan review, they went on about speedometer needles and hash marks.

Another Jerry Flint Column to Outrage Everyone
I think being realistic is looking at Caddy's future direction and GM's willingness and ability to invest in the brand. There's no new product coming soon, apart from CTS No. 2 and a refreshed STS. The CTS and Escalade attract conquest buyers, but the STS, SRX, XLR, and DTS aren't up to the task. I think we all agree that Cadillac has changed significantly but still have a long way to go.

Surprisingly, the GTI gets better mileage than the Rabbit. 25/32 v. 22/30 Maybe direct injection and less displacement has something to do with it.

Acadia starts at $29,990
The CX-9 is to Ford like the XL-7 is to Chevy.

Saturn Announces Prices For All New 2007 Outlook
BTW, I'm finally appreciative of OnStar Turn-by-Turn. Saturn wants $2950 (comes with better stereo) for navigation! No thanks.

Saturn Announces Prices For All New 2007 Outlook
It's about $1500 more than a comparably equipped Pilot, and the option groups are less bizarre than the Acadia. Power driver seat is standard, not part of some $2500 package. Fully specced, however, the GMC might be cheaper after haggling. Let's hope residuals are high, or no ones going to spend $35K+ on a Saturn.

Acadia starts at $29,990
They screwed up the pricing big time. I priced my own, and to get leather, I had to spring for the $35,960 SLT. Friggin' power seats and one-touch windows are part of a $2,145 package and cannot be ordered a la carte. Moonroof costs $1,300. At that price, I think most would spring for the MDX or save $6K and get a Pilot EX-L 4WD (standard leather, power seats, one-touch windows, moonroof). GMC should seriously consider offering leather on SLE models and make power seats and one-touch windows standard. Even the Freestyle has that.

Hey flybrian, Kohl's is having a sale!
Funny. When Kohl's opened their first store here, they were giving away X5s and 3ers.
