    The China market Cavalier is available in Mexico where it replaced the Sonic..don't know if they are shipping it from China or not. From what I've read, it's a rebodied 1st gen Cruze. It's now Chevy's largest sedan in Mexico (they used to sell the Cruze, Malibu and Impala there but not now apparently). https://www.chevrolet.com.mx/autos/cavalier-auto-familiar

    I like the GLS styling..evolutionary, not revolutionary. Clean, uncluttered. Nice interior. They have G-class for those that want a bling wagen.

    A sports coupe based on the Stinger and a luxury sports coupe version of the G70 for Genesis would be really cool, but I don't see it happening.

    That would be a different car, different architecture...I doubt if GM would be investing in two different Corvette architectures at once. It sounds like they are going all-in on mid-rear. It's a risky move. I'm sure they will lose a lot of long time customers that don't like mid-rear cars...but gain new customers. I can imagine a lot of the old farts griping that it looks like a 'fancy furrin' car''..

    Strong Nissan vibe to the C-pillar in that angle. I like this color.

    One recent article I saw said that the C7 production would end by June and the last one will be auctioned off, so the C7 and C8 will not likely be sold concurrently as rumored. Supposedly the base trim C8 will have a 500hp V8 and dual clutch transmission according to another article. https://www.topspeed.com/cars/car-news/with-the-mid-engined-2020-c8-corvette-set-to-debut-chevy-will-auction-off-the-very-last-c7-corvette-ar185178.html We will have to wait and see what pans out, definitely seems like the biggest change in the Corvette's long history. The C8 will likely attract a different buyer than the C7, will be interesting to see how it does..will be one of the cheapest mid engine sports cars on the market.

    The profile reminds of the Ferrari 360 and 430, but with some squared off elements..going to be interesting to see how it looks in person.

    It was a great show. He didn’t do either of those songs, but focused on songs from his solo career. Very loud, high energy blues rock. I had a 5th row seat. Hard to believe he’s 74, ferocious on a Fender Stratocaster.

    Are the bed outer panels steel or some sort of composite on these?

    Since seeing Don Felder in concert a couple weeks ago, I've been listening to a lot of Eagles..always liked their '70s LA country-rock sound...

    Recent streaming 'binge' shows-- Modus--decent Swedish crime drama, though the lead actress is rather annoying 2 seasons The Truth Will Out--solid Swedish crime drama, one season. Jack Irish--season 2, offbeat Australian crime drama w/ Guy Pearce

    Speaking of 60s pop/rock, going to see Robin Trower in concert tonight. He was the guitarist/vocalist of Procol Harum. Should be fun.

    Looks like Uncle Buck's ride, but in better shape.

    Interesting that it's badged 100, IIRC the mid 80s ones like that were still badged as 5000 in the US. Haven't seen an Avant in decades probably.. Edit--looks like they switched to 100 badging in the US in 1989.

    Promaster Hellcat would help Amazon deliver faster..

    Which is also strange and fake, IMO. Credits are just artificial nonsense in lieu of building cleaner products.

    I like the J6 and Scrambler concepts..

    Jeeps are mostly diesels in Europe also...that is probably the big issue. Anyway, this seems like a very strange approach to meeting emissions standards.

    Hmm...gas tank in the cab, '72 I think. '72 was the first year for that generation, and in '73 (or '74) I think they moved the gas tank to under the bed. Not sure if the Power Wagon trim was available then, the decals may have been added later.

    Saw a few interesting cars when out and about yesterday...a clean dark blue w dark blue top '84-85ish Olds 88 Royale 4dr w/ a for sale sign, a bright red '04-06 GTO with random primer gray panels, a shiny '11-14 Dodge Charger in black w/ white roof, white doors and black wheels...must be a retired police car..had a temporary plate and a great rumbly exhaust note. Saw bright red w/ white stripes '13-14 Shelby GT500 convertible rolling top down on I-90 heading back towards the Cleveland area yesterday evening..Spring has sprung.

    This rendering seems to match up pretty well to the disguised spy photo. I wonder if the Venue will be related to the existing ix25/Creta which is related to the Kia Soul.

    IIRC, the west coast of Michigan on Lake Michigan has some nice sandy beaches and dunes...but I haven't been over there in 20+ years. I've been to beaches on Lake Michigan, Lake Huron and Lake Erie, never been to Lake Superior or Lake Ontario.

    Beach time this sunny afternoon

    This reminds me of something I saw a while back..trying to apply the 3 window coupe styling to a more modern product...a PT Cruiser 3 window coupe. It's not completely successful, IMO..the roof is too high and they used stock door window frames that don't flow w/ the shape, but it is an interesting effort. https://www.hotrodplans.com/product/21st-century-hot-rod-build-3-window-coupe/

    Saw a clean red 67 Impala 2dr at a gas station today. Had goofy fender skirts but otherwise looked stock.
