  1. OMG! A Corsa ten HP better than a Pontiac Torrent? Ten HP short of a Cadillac CTS '07? I'm getting numb. Let me start counting ma pennies... lol
  2. I feel you. The front end does need some work. In my opinion, the Dodge grille always needs to be done BIG! And the rear is OK, but the best on a CX (crossver) is on the Edge. And you guys should've waited out for the Hornet... lol j/k...(chinese piece of crap for another thread) What is that supposed to mean Mr.? Are you clowning Kia's Sorento? From what I understand, it's a fine alternative SUV! Two of my younger friends own Sorentos... Sorentoes... Sorentii w/e?
  3. You know what, I'm just stating my opinion. I'm sure your wife is a totally fine person, but underneath its 'bold' styling, there are few actually redeeming qualities about the Nitro. People who buy the Nitro aren't really jerks persay, but are gullable by styling. For all that, I'd rather get an Kia Sorento, or better yet a C-RV (I know... no 6).Just not the best choice. Poor visability, weak power, and gas milage. You don't have to like my opinion, frankly.
  4. If they make a convertible, or a competitive RL version, Americans would go for it. I wonder how long it will take for VW to get some of their smaller offerings over... hmm
  5. Nitro is disgusting, only something a jerk could like. I like the Sebring. I wouldn't say it's ugly, just beautifully-challenged. It's smooth enough, but it could have problems as it ages. The interior does look cheap and good at the same time, and those seats are SOLID! SOLID AS A ROCK!
  6. WTF? GM fanboys just h8 to admit that toyota can make something OK. The XB and XD are OK. There are problems, but they're OK. If GM made the groove like this with as good quality, I still wouldn't like it. Why? B/c it'd be too much like XA or XD. It's not that Toyota can do no wrong, It's that GM consistently finds themselves either behind the ball or dropping it completely. They're gonna be 4 years behind Mustang with Camaro. They were 15 years behind Miata with the Kappas, 15 years behind Civic and Corolla growing up with a competent Cobalt. And even with Aveo/HHR, GM is going to come unfashionably late with a competiitve car to the XA and XD's party.
  7. My friends just got one. The XB's interior is good. The rear seat is a lil flat for long rides, and the high beltline and seatbacks makes it feel cramped, but look larger. But the interior is well packaged and I was never upset about legroom. There are storage areas UNDER the seats and the cupholders on the door sills are handy. And the door handles are the coolest I've ever seen on a car (I'm not very cultured). I was ready to write it off cuz of the outside, but the interior is great, kinda like the Edge(don't kill me)!
  8. o GOD! let me start countin my pennies. I've gotta get one of these. 3-d mapping? Crazy. I wonder if they could get a contract w/ google earth (best stuff in the world). I'm just scared of the premium this technology will come at. Plus, if I can get a hard-drive on a dodge, it makes since for a cadillac... I'm just surprised Caddy didn't have this 1st!
  9. This rumor borders on stupidity. Saturn does not need a RWD car other than the Sky. That's what makes it stand out as Saturn's halo! Next, there'll be a Zeta Saturn, and Saab and Buick'll be dead, and Chevy will be pissed! What with the BLS coming, it's high time GM sells SAAB to BMW cuz they've killed their own market. I am genuinely excited about Alpha, but when lines blur, it's hard for GM to do good business. I think it would be smart for this to happen w/ the CARS... 4get the trucks: Saturn:All FWD except Sky and shooting break derivative Chevy: FWD: Aveo, Cobalt, HHR, Malibu RWD:Cobalt SS (smart idea on alpha!) Nomad, Camaro, Impala, 'Vette Pontiac:All RWD. Kill G5... Replace w/Alpha G4, EWB Alpha G6, Solstice and coupe derivative, GTO, G8 Cadillac: All RWD/AWD. Alpha BLS, One Day Sigma replacement CTS and derivatives, Zeta STS-DTS merge, EWB Zeta ULS and XLR Buick, Hummer, and SAAB can all be absorbed/killed by this structure, no? Keep GMC to keep BPG dealers alive. But trim the crap! This allows Chevy to bridge the gap between value, fuel minded Saturns and rip roaring RWD Pontiacs. This also allows Pontiac to bridge the price gap between Cheap and Luxurious, and Pontiac can actually inject some luxury and sport into their cars w/o Buick in the way, somewhat like a bargain BMW. Sorry for the tangent/rant, but this got me stirred up!
  10. Well at least we know that when BLS does come to America, there will at least two variants! And when they say C- segment Chev, do they mean the 'Bu?
  11. Well the styling is near obvious b/c of recent Ford styling trends (Super Chief concept) and they are evident on the car. But did sales lag? No. People are going to buy Ford b/c it's an F150. THey have always been good. My grandfather had one from 1966 he drove until he died in '97! Nissan? You're $h!ting me! That's not even a true competitor and the refresh is only marginally better. And they were already GIVING away Tundras by March And when was this little patent registered? And at least Ford is going to get it out there first!
  12. Those other brands can build trucks... sure. But desirability really matters for most people who buy these trucks for non-commercial use and the other two in the Big 3 look like crap inside and out, I mean the Silverado's interior is OK, but it's still not great... Now, by no means I'm no Ford guy (The Super Duty's interior is a shame) But Ford does the job and keeps cost down compared to others... And this ram is going to be a disappointment at Dodge. And the Dakota aint no peach either.
  13. Because Ford made this segment greater. It's going to be greater because it's going to be different. Six doors? Nobody's done that before. From what i saw the F-150's styling looks good and crisp. It's going to be better cuz thats the only way Ford knows how to do Pickups-- Better.
  14. Yea. That was ugly, but the new Silverado looks like a smiling old man with dentures. The grille is way too wide! The Rampage looks better than the Tundra, but I don't like the Avenger-style Dodge grille on a truck. It's too small looking. The new F-150 will blow all of these away!
  15. So how will the shape of the next gen G6s rear end evolve? Cuz this is exactly what I thought it would look like(as far as the taillights) and the rest of the profile looks like altima! also ist that a wing or an upper-bangle? cuz it kinda looks like a wing, and that would be REALLY HOT!
  16. Like th old saying goes, "you cant fix ugly"
  17. THat is a work of art! I hope I never see one of those covered in mud! It makes that Volvo behind it look positively $h!TY!
  18. And this is what GM was supposed to have with Saturn. If a brand like this comes in, everyone but Hyundai/Kia and maybe Scion would be totally and completely un-prepared... Anyway, they really dont need that monstrosity!
  19. Zulehan's shading + BV's lines + MDM's imagination = One beautiful picture!
  20. I kinda like the style, but if this thing gets more than 15 mpg, I'll $h! my pants! THat isnt what chrysler needs... THey need cheap Plymouths
  21. Why do they need this? X6 X5 V5... or whatever the MPV will be called All competing for eachother... That front 3/4 looks like a hunkered down MDX and the profile SCREAMS Q7! BMW needs to ditch this! I am not a fan of Bangle 2.0 in this app. What's wrong with the headlights? That hofmeister is making me sick here! GOD!
  22. How on earth would they update the pentastar? In commecials they could computerize it or whatever, but on the cars its basically gonna be the same thng... a friggin pentagon with a bunch of lines *retards*! I just dont think it should be on any Chryslers. If anything, they need to put it instead of the Dodge logo... I mean, when i think ram, a think " oooh a mammal that chews cud" not " Damn! That's a tight whip!" Maybe on the trucks, but bighorn sheep dont stir emotion! Maybe the pentastar would work. They do have gun like names, and I always think of a targeting reticle when i see the pentastar... They would probably make it an ornament if they took that approach...
  23. THanks for correcting me on that one... I just get so excited when i see car stuff, i dont really soak in the commercial's message...mybad!
  24. Looking at this car makes me notice how ugly and bricklike the current Aura's styling is! It is still the best that the 2002-2007 cycle had to offer, but with this new Altima and the 'Bu on the way, it is very hideous! And what's up with the Bangle-bashing? As long as it's rounded out to look good, this design is more appropriate than the Camry's , Altima's RL's or 7's rears. It increases vertical space, so there's less overhang, and more luggage! Another good sign... NO FENDER VENTS! Yeah! So happy that won't come to Saturn... Also, funny how there are complaints this is "too Japanese"... The Japanese take the German's styling, and Saturn is basically German now, so... no
  25. MINI and SMART are fostering that "speedo and tach everywhere" look that is so popular on subcompacts. Toyota put them on the Yaris and now GM's doing it. That would make for a quirky lil saturn, tho. Also, is anybody else getting tired of looking @ that same old steering wheel? It's really ugly!
