  1. That is a little bit pricey for a LS2. A brand new one can be about 7.5k
  2. Flasher
  3. Z-06

    Which one?

    Nothing beats this. Awesome Graphics! Pioneering Speed! Variety of Games! Class Leading everything.
  4. Ahh chance for the golf carts to beat an internal combustion engine car.
  5. He probably needs new life.
  6. True. Well GM is trying to keep the brands "seperate". I the HHR turbo was already released in the heritage motor show, that is why I do not think it is a new announcement, unless it is said to be new for tuner folks.
  7. Chevy will make a couple of sport compact production announcements on Monday, Oct. 29, that will surely please the tuner crowd. G5 is not a Chevy
  8. More Pictures Please.
  9. Better than the RDX or the X3.
  10. Wait till Fly posts his findings.
  11. Well if that is the theory then Honda, Toyota will be the first to discontinue the navigation system, because they are the ones who follow Keizen, and when they see Diminishing returns they will axe all their navigation models if they think they will be on point of diminishing returns. Considering, a. All platforms of GM are/ will be worldwide, there will be always need for some ammenity/ equipment in one market compared to the other. Let us say for example 6-speed manual in a Epsilon. This is certainly going to be a possibility in European bound sedans. So the development money is going to be put forth, what is needed is minor retooling while manufacturing for USDA. b. Take a look at Honda, they have one 6-speed manual transmission which they put in every darn car they have. I am sure if GM does that, it will at the most need two good 6-speeds. One for low performance vehicles, other for higher performance. As a matter of fact they can just make the Hi-po transmission "heavy duty". How much will that be for development and design, considering the expertise they have to simulate the real world conditions in modeling, I do not foresee any serious development dollars going in the manual transmissions. Or heck, give it to Tremec, Aisin or Getrag and ask them to meet the specs and let there be a "healthy competition". c. Again Navigation. They put Navigation in the TrailBlazer..... I am sure Trailblazer was not tooled for that considering it has the 1990s corporate radio system. They cannot do that in the Malibu? Wonder how many of those navigation Trailblazer did they sell. I am seeing more and more cars with navigation systems. And many prefer in dash compared to the Garmins or Tom Toms. I am sure they can sell more Malibus equipped with navigation than the Trailblazers.
  12. Good Futuristic Concept Mr DM. Please remove the brushlines and make interior less hazy and more defining and work on the lines of the side view.
  13. The Crapolla is due for the Halloween Horror release in less than a week.
  14. Backwaters
  15. The Sport Compacts, Hmmm Chevy Cobalt 2.0DI Turbo which is one of the worst kept secret. Other may be Aveo SS.
  16. Z-06

    Sheesh

    What is the big deal, they both look same.
  17. Good one. I have always argued with that GM psychology of only 5% buyers buy stick or only 5% buyers buy Nav, or only 2% buyers buy bigger engine in Single Cab configuration, or 0.5% buy car with Chapsticks. The fact is that if you start adding those small numbers it accounts for 100,000-200,000 customers. The worst thing is people go to other car companies because they give them that ammenity. Only Toyota offers 6 speed with a V-6 on its Tacoma, heck GM does not even offer a 5-speed on its 5 cylinders GMT 360s. No 6 speed on the Kappas. No manual transmission on the Malibu. The devil is in the details, if GM ignores these details then they are losing some amount of marketshare in those. And at the end of the day it is the customer who should get what he wants. Telling him you are dumb for buying the navigation system or manual transmission car and we are smart to not provide it will only drive him away. Those people who buy navigation system might be dumb, but they still would have been GM customers and we are losing them.
  18. And Good Golf courses if you play golf.
  19. That is a nice place. Good Luck and Good Choice!
  20. ZL-1, welcome back! To me it is still UGLY
  21. Bullet Rain
  22. Firepower, MEIV12 were very good concepts. I hope they can now build them, since the German Dungeon Mistresses are not ruling them.
  23. Nice wheels. And they did with no visible spoiler. WOW!
  24. This one is good too. Clickity
