I was surprised to see so many color and trim choices for the interior...I like the red and the brown in particular. I noticed the comment that the manual will be available in all trim levels, I wonder if it will be available w/ all engines?

Looking forward to seeing it in person!

Going to be interesting how long until the V-series in unveiled...

Not the current one, but with the new one is the resemblance I'm seeing...the hood, the lower fascia...

Saw a large dark red w/ tan top late '30s-early '40s convertible...couldn't see the front but only the side and rear...think it might have been a Cadillac or LaSalle from around '39 or so...was going down my street and saw it drive across a cross street, a car ahead of me partially blocked my view..

that is weird, it's not even on the trunklid. Ah, yeah..top of the bumper, looks like

Very interesting how the chrome deck trim is below the license plate pocket instead of above it as they normally are...

Interesting..that's what this is...reminds me also of the lighting on the Ciel..

The head-on photo in silver reminds me of the '13 Malibu as far as the front fascia...similar.. but still, distinctly Cadillac.

GM seems to be using a similar vertical center vent design on many recent models..SRX, Regal, Verano, current CTS, etc...

Sweet..

Been listening to M83 quite a bit lately on the daily grind..the 'Saturdays=Youth' and 'Hurry Up, We're Dreaming' albums....not guilty, though..I've enjoyed atmospheric French electronica/pop for quite a while...also, Adele, Fitz and The Tantrums, and RPA & The United Nations of Sound (Richard Ashcroft's post-Verve band).

Well, Reg, unlike the Kizashi, it will probably actually sell..

Those front fenders are certainly unusual...and the left one looks different from the right one.

Very tempting..something to think about.. I want to check out the Luxury Edition 300 also when it hits the dealers..

Clean and modern. Not as overstyled as the Focus or Elantra, not as bland as the Civic, Corolla, etc.

That's pretty cool...would make an interesting snow cat type thingy...

I like the front..has a strong family resemblance to the Equinox and Traverse...I like how the front bumper is well integrated.

Hmmm...the small FWD concept could be the Chevy version of the Encore. Or a new bodystyle for the Sonic or Cruze. Or something else...

That's pretty cool...

Sweet...

Yes, 5 model years w/ no styling changes is a bit much (the only changes I can think of were the GM emblems and fender lights going away).

I wonder what the Chevy concept on Monday will be.. A Camaro Z-28 variation? A Cruze variation (coupe?), Sonic CUV (Chevy's Encore equivalent) ? I'd love to see a civilian version of the Caprice shown..or the much rumored Chevy 'SS'...
