    Aren't they the ones from the Aveo?

    Their explanation: Szakaly said buyers should also be mindful that a car's sales affect the number of manufacturing jobs it creates — and therefore play a key role in determining a car's domestic impact. "If one car is out there with 90 percent parts (from the U.S. or Canada) and they're selling five of them, we don't care," he said.

    Yep... it's a brilliant truck regardless of where it's built.
  5. http://www.ktrv.com/Global/story.asp?S=5100193 I saw something on this while watching Faux News (Cavuto) a few nights ago. They said that according to the US government, the Mustang and Suburban, two distinctly American-looking vehicles (original pony car and full-size SUV), are actually not American (65% and 68%, respectively; 75% and up qualifies as "American"), while the Toyota Camry, something traditionally viewed as an import, is (80%). Of course, they had to mention that the Prius, "something very popular in California", has zero American content.
  6. Sounds good... I'm totally for big, comfy, plush luxury, just in a sophisticated and modern way. I guess the question is whether current DTS loyalists will pony up for S-class/7-series/A8 prices.
  7. Well, lame-duck CTSes are unbelievably cheap right now...

  8. RS4 starts at $66K... should be interesting how much the CLK63 is.
  9. ROTFLMAO! That's pretty bad...
  10. What if you're not white?
  11. Perhaps they're denying it to keep competitors off-guard...
  12. Maybe with a downpayment of $7500 and mileage of 10K/yr...
  13. I saw a new one today, with a well-groomed, yoga-doing (probably) guy waiting in line carrying a package of tofu, next to some other guy piling red meat onto a supermarket conveyor belt. Red meat guy walks out into his POS econobox, while tofu guy climbs into his H2, followed by "restore your manhood."
  14. This gives the upcoming CTS Coupe some breathing room in regards to price..... 164832[/snapback] Considering that the new 328i Coupe offers better performance than the 330Ci, one could say that it's $2300 cheaper than before.

    Weeeee, it's the car salesman superiority complex again...
  16. Lincoln LS?
  17. The ads almost compensate for the generalization that most Hummer owners are red-meat-eating, gun-toting, male chauvinists... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EN0WJUcUicc...rch=hummer%20ad Sadly, this sort of local advertising kinda kills it... Also, the Happy Jack ad (with music from The Who) was brilliant!
  18. Yeah, I've always wondered why HUMMER was branded so uniquely compared to the rest of the GM brands. All the HUMMER ads I've seen so far are great, and I love how their website doesn't share the same layout with Chevy, Buick, Pontiac, Saab, GMC, etc. (Ew, platform sharing.)
  19. If styled properly, this can be the next TT phenomenon.
  20. Their current articulated dual-wiper set-up is about the same... it's just that the driver side gets its own.
  21. I'm glad I'm not the only one amused by good wiper designs. I love the ones in our 5-series, which articulate to reach the very edges of the glass, stay glued to the glass even at high speed, and make a gentle thunk-thunk sound, nice on rainy days. Most Japanese cars I've been in have crappy, underengineered wipers. The ones in our Odyssey are flimsy and don't push hard enough against the glass to be streak-free.
  22. WOOOOOOO! That was awesome!
