If he does, I'm going to drive by in a LaCrosse shouting, "Three Buicks for under $29,000!"

Azera sales figures make me laugh, too, especially since a Buick-like percentage of them end up in fleets. Avalons, too.

Crap.

How many people who buy a Mazda3 or Lancer get a navigation system? Seriously? Furthermore, how many use one? But if you want the option, fine, as long as non-navigation models aren't left with a pointless LCD display like the Murano.

The original Charger???? Again, this is why I'm sick of this car already. Every Camaro nut should just simply be happy they have a car to whine about in the first place. Where the hell were they for the past decade when GM was desperately trying to move Camaros and Firebirds? And a better question - how many of you who complain so virulently are putting your money where your mouth is and buying one when they come out? And how many of you are just going to put another 12,000 miles on your Cobalt and say "eh...maybe in a few years when there's a rebate?" You can blame our lack of spectacular automobiles across all GM lines on that latter group of window shoppers who bitch and moan about "Why can't GM make a car with a big V8, 50mpg, and a Hooters waitress?!" and then turn around and bitch and moan about "no Buick is worth more than $30,000!" There's a big difference between hypotheticals and reality and I bet GM realizes that a pillard Camaro will still sell out.

This hasn't bothered anyone for the thirty-two years that the Camaro didn't even have rear sideglass and instead had rather thick C-pillars.

Awesomeness.

Difference between Olds and Plymouth - people miss Olds.

Sixty8 is right... Now, its a hideous pile of crap. You know, this is exactly the kind of irrelevent minutia I said years ago that people would be bitching about come this time. Buick and Pontiac are starved for product, Cadillac's momentum is slowing, GM can't afford for Saturn to properly advertise all its great new cars, and we're worried about a facet of the Camaro that wouldn't have made it through to production anyway. I'm getting sick of the Camaro already and its thanks to the multitudes of people who bitch and pigeonhole the goddamn thing before it even rolls off the line. I bet not twenty-four hours go by after production photos are released that I'll read inane whining about how the toggle switches are too thick or the gauge font isn't sporty or the rocker panels being too thick or the eggcrating in the grille being too wide. What's even more annoying is those that PMS the loudest about the most inconsequential things CANNOT AFFORD OR WILL NEVER BUY THE f@#kING CAR IN THE FIRST PLACE. In a few short years, I want to be able to buy a brand-new Buick. This isn't a 'maybe kind sorta beginning to possibly consider pondering whether I should think about it'; I intend to. Will there be a truly great one there for me? Or will I have to relegate myself to buying used because I, for one, will not buy a Chevrolet. Why? Because its a Chevrolet and there is always something better than a Chevrolet. Don't blame me for that attitude; blame GM. They sold innumerable people on that concept, including me, and now I feel like I'm holding a bill of goods that doesn't exist. Where are the focus groups on my car? Where are the proof-of-concepts of my car? Where's the enthusiasm for my car? Where's the support from GM for my car? I really feel that there is none. Now, I don't hate the Camaro; if it sells well, great. But if all this focus and earmarked budget is intended solely for a lowish-volume coupe for a bottom-rung division, then I'm going to be extremely disappointed. So, to those bitching about idiotic things from the concept that you knew in your heart you'd never see in the real car, just be thankful you have a real car. The closest thing to my dream car is in China.

That was a very vacuous article.

What idiots keep buying QX56s?

That's the Misubishi Way! The Amanti is continued garbage and that makes me laugh.

...'cause this would be different if the car were RWD?

No. No one cares. One production car of any significant volume is of a hardtop style and that's the Mercedes CLK. Price one.

Welcome to the site! Assuming you have a GM truck, a flashing SES lamp typically indicates a problem with the emissions control system; this could be anything from an open gas cap to a misfire etc. What's the year/make/model?

OMG?!?!?! WTF?!?!?!?!??! RU4REAL?!?!??!?! ROTFLMAO?!?!???!?! TTYL?!?!??!?!??! BFF?!?!??!?!??! AT&T?!?!??!?!??! This completely ruins any street cred the Camaro could ever hope to achieve and eliminates it from ever being a respectable muscle car. Furthermore, it tarnishes the history of every single Camaro ever produced ever and by extension, the history of the Firebird, too. Might as well slap a Solara badge on it and call it a day.

Better yet... Don't 'baby Maxima' me on this; remove the stacked headlamps, and you have zero resemblance to the Maxima.

Saturn L-Series sales up 116%!!!!

The local Mitsubishi dealership doublewide just became the Saturn of Clearwater Pre-Owned Car doublewide. One Mitsu lot near my office in Tampa was razed to build a Hooters. One down in north St. Pete is becoming a Buick-Pontiac-GMC expansion lot.

You're mean.

Please try again, guys.

So, this brings the Durango's EPA rating up to 8mpg.

Remember also that the lower-volume RWD Impala will be sold alongside a FWD EpII Malibu that will be roughly the same size, cheaper, and offer smaller engines. Remember also that the last Caprice was a huge car...very huge and honestly woefully-equipped in terms of creature comforts. I think the Lumina could be outfitted more luxuriously and I certainly know cars like the Park Avenue and Seville/DeVille were far more advanced than thier B-body stablemates. Having a G-body-sized RWD lineup over higher-volume FWD cars gives a little something for everyone and those who are typically willing to pay a little extra for more performance or luxury tend to go RWD. However, as said, the car must be well-executed. Did front-wheel drive play a role in the DeVille/DTS' outrageous success over the past two decades? Sure. But the fact that it was simply a far better car than the rival Town Car was the key factor. Everyone knocks the DTS, but reviews are still positive because of its refined chassis and fun gadgets; no one even reviews the Town Car anymore. Why bother?

Tchuss. Macht spass!
