  1. Amazing..I couldn't imagine driving a subcompact with an automatic....
  2. Maybe they assume the masses will just think it's an Impala from Avis.
  3. And Fritz was right also, this is not a rebaged G8, since it's the LWB Statesman/Caprice...
  4. Jalopnik article
  5. Cool. I remember that thread. And now we know.
  6. Saw a black V6 '10 Camaro at the grocery tonight....with..... Fake portholes on the front fenders and huge cheesy chrome bling wheels!!! Tasteless.
  7. I saw a 2010 Outback parked outside my office yesterday. They look huge compared to the original Outback from the '90s. White w/ gray trim. The new face has a very strong Toyota/Lexus vibe to it.. The rear of the Legacy sedan reminds me of the Sonata.
  8. Cool... Not automotive, but I've received a free ticket to the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in January in Vegas... I think I'm going to go, supposed to be quite the event.
  9. Here's a site that sells some, but it appears they are sold out.. Blinker Fluid
  10. The time of the year when you don't need air conditioning 24/7. It's convertible season here.
  11. Don't forget to replace the blinker fluid before winter also.
  12. The thing I observed living in a very conservative Republican area (Colorado Springs) was that American trucks were very popular, yet in cars, it was Toyota and (to a lesser degree Honda and Nissan) that dominated, and SUVs (a huge market segment in Colorado) were fairly evenly split between domestics and imports.. and that was in '97-02.
  13. And as I know from 13 years in the West (Colorado and Arizona), Toyota does extremely well in parts of the West... Rob
  14. My oh my. I wonder if the Stig did a lap in the dirigible.
  15. Wierd... I have yet to see a 2nd gen CTS-v...I did see a black 1st gen CTS-v a few days ago. Saw a gorgeous 2nd gen CTS at the airport this afternoon, black w/ blackout windows, and custom mesh grilles..
  16. bitey beast My poor Bitey has had a rough couple of weeks..had to go in for surgery a week ago Monday...going in next week to get sutures removed.
  17. First '10 SRXes on the road...saw a dark blue one at the Caddy dealer a few weeks ago...saw two black ones on the freeway this afternoon..interesting looking from behind. At Target this afternoon I saw a restored '31 Ford Model A convertible, a body style I hadn't seen before---with a backseat...looked like a Tudor from the beltline down. Dark blue, ivory colored wire wheels, ivory top, separate trunk behind the body.
  18. This morning on the way to work--the first '09 ZR-1 I've seen in the wild. In blue. Looks incredible on the road. I saw the gray showcar at Barrett-Jackson in '08. Also, a very clean early 4th gen Camaro convertible, top down at 6am, a sharp custom indigo blue paint job w/ tasteful large chrome wheels...
  19. I saw a dark gray Equinox on the freeway yesterday, bringing to 2 the # I've seen since they've been out, and the first one I saw about a month and a 1/2 ago. They look good.
  20. Yeah...the hideously styled, cheap and nasty interior and wierd exterior styling didn't help the Ion. The Astra was a superior car, but too late.
  21. Or, how about in an alternate future, GM has downsized their line--the Spark is the Aveo, the NG Aveo is badged Malibu and the 2nd gen Cruze is badged Impala, all FWD, 4cyl automatics. And the Colorado has been rebadged as the Silverado... Rob
  22. Ya, old AMC engine dating back to the 60s I think. It sounds like a diesel tractor at idle..nothing exciting to hear.
  23. Don't know, don't care..I'm not a drag racer, more interested in all around performance (i.e. handling, braking, steering, etc. ) BMW's 330d seems quite performant for what it is..
  24. Wow... and isn't the HUMMER sale in trouble also?
