That's rude, maybe the tech working on the car is on vacation. Or maybe he quit or got fired (not particularly over your car, I'm just saying). All sorts of things can happen behind the scenes at a bodyshop, believe me. Still, they could have called you back. No excuses here, but I have forgotten to call back a customer or two over my (soon to be) 14 year bodyshop career, if the day gets crazy and fires have to be extinguished. "Keeping the customer informed" is, time and time again, one of the most important aspects in customer satisfaction for us. I totally understand that "not knowing" is nerve wracking. Hang in there, I'm sure they don't want to keep your car from you, as they most likely won't get paid until the end of the job.

Thanks for puttin' me in there, Vipes. Nice thread, bud.

Bleh, sigh... it's only been 3 weeks as of yesterday. I'm thinking of camping out at the GMC dealership.

Hey Vipes, why don't you ask your grandpa very nicely if he'll just give you his '00 so he can get a new '07?

For everyone lamenting the lower grille, take notice in the closeup picture of the red car that half of the bottom half of the main grille is blanked off with part of the bumper, see how the bottom half is closed off? The bottom, separate grille is there for airflow into the engine. Lots of other vehicles with big, lowflying grilles are this way.

(pssst... Camino... you forgot to move your pickup truck before you took the pic, did you notice that?) :AH-HA_wink:

Nice vehicles, Camino. EDIT: and Mr. Jacket, too!

Yeah, I think cars like this were used as airport courtesy cars. I am sure there are lots of pics of many different brands of cars done like this. Cool pic!

I think it's beautifully done all around. I cannot wait to see one in person. The interior color choices (are they fo realz?) are fantastic, a nice wide variety, like the good ol' days. The drivetrain choices are top-notch, imo. I would love to see Chevrolet produce this car as a coupe, with an elegant, yet sporty roofline. With G6 hopefully going RWD in its next iteration, I have no fear of going against GM's newest edict against overlap. This is the best looking Malibu since the '78, imo, which was a very handsome car at the time (and still is).

Well now I'm insulted, Mr. Shift. How could you forget what we did?

It sort of reminds me of the new Santa Fe from the side, which is nothing to aspire to. I agree with those that like the interior, however.

Maybe I need to look at a current 300 again, but I swear I don't see a difference in those taillights. It already has a round upper element, striped backup lamp, etc., can someone point out the changes?

Good God, that Nassau is hideous. Love the Trailhawk though. Any solid-axle Jeep is welcome, as far as I'm concerned.

Welcome abored, blackviper8891! Oh, I guess I'm a little late on that.

Mr. Fly: :AH-HA_wink: As far as the Dak goes, lose the rollbar, that's kind of cheesy, otherwise you have my blessing, if it's in good mechanical shape. Boys love trucks, grrrrr....

Uh, no. Don't be scared, Matt. Yota doesn't have the capacity, or the product, for that.
