I'm just curious... what would my 94 Century be rated? I happen to know its actual rating (I did a few tests with it recently), despite its issues.

Okay... at first I thought, "NO NO NO NO NO!" But I guess it could be cool if done right. I do like the idea of Ferrari and Lamborghini staying solely exotic sportscars, but if they can make an SUV that drops the world's jaw (in a good way), then I'm all for it. It's just another thing I can boast to my students about Italy

Yes yes on both accounts... and I think AWD optional will really give it an edge over competition. If the benchmark is the ES350, then AWD is an option the ES doesn't have. I'm going to say this, and I haven't said it in a long time: I want real wood. I know, I know, don't hold my breath since the Lucerne, Enclave, and even some Cadillacs don't have real wood.

That's so funny--I just read the title of this thread today: "Jesus, it's your birthday." Thought this thread was going to be about Christmas. :AH-HA_wink: Oh well. Happy Birthday XP!

I still don't understand how this is the car that was delayed--delayed to be so vastly improved to compete with the revolutionary new Civic.

They have my attention. I'm waiting patiently.

When are we getting solid info and pictures on this?

I assume the new Buick LaCrosse will have it-- all Cadillacs. Maybe the Malibu. Glad to hear they're doing this...

I'm so excited! Viva la C&G! I just sent a donation--never did that before via PayPal so I hope it gets to you!

What are all of those buttons on the console behind the gear shift?

What a load of crap. I swear... I should be a meteorologist. We had like a half inch of sleet, then some light rain. What happened to 1-2" of rain and 25-35mph winds gusting up to 50?

Well, I'm surprised... I honestly thought I was going to hate it--I really don't, although I'm still not a fan of the tail of the car.

Is this a facelift for the US? That "before" interior isn't exactly US... I don't think you can get NAV here.

Typical Noreaster for Long Island: Snow. Then rain. Then snow. Then sleet. Then it all freezes. All with very high winds. (I actually love this type of weather--love snow, love storms) I predict a 2-hour delayed start on school Monday. :AH-HA_wink:

I will.

Why does it redline at 4500 rpms?

It's SO funny this is here... on my way home from work today, this exact color/year is pulling into the parking lot of a Burger King... ... it's a slightly steep ramp, I know when I've gone into it before I have to take it slow or I'll scrape the bottom. But here they spent all this money on an SUV of this size, and they were going SO slow up this entry ramp... I'd love to see it go off-roading.

Nope.

Both excellent guesses... Square Pegs, dear God no. My So-Called Life is on DVD and it was from the 90's. Growing Pains... no. Here's a hint... the theme song was a rework of Bing Crosby's, Swinging on a Star.

Nope. Wasn't as popular. And The Facts of Life is on DVD.

I highly doubt anyone would guess it. :AH-HA_wink:

Happy Birthday! Here's your present.... ... oh no wait... that's mine.

Nope. :AH-HA_wink:

You wouldn't believe me if I told you what I've dreamed about TWICE in the past week... ... a cheesy tv show from the late 80's (I refuse to say the name)... being released on DVD.

Happy Birthday!!
