If the 200C goes into production and replaces the Sebring sedan, I'd love to see a convertible version also..the previous versions of the Sebring convertible has been successful, would love to see a RWD entry-lux convertible from Chrysler. Call it 200 Cordoba or something.

Good move. Seemed odd to bring the Rabbit name back. Seemed as retrograde as if they had brought back Dasher or Quantum for the latest Passat.

Yes, dynamic plans..plan-of-the-week, plan-of-the-day.... Anyway, if GM is going to be a lean and mean 21st century company instead of a bloated and obsolete 20th century company, they are going to be more dynamic.

Really..haven't seen it posted. It's a recent article that appeared on Autoextremist on Monday.

From the Seattle Weekly, via Autoextremist: Toyota. Things are not quite rosy at Shiny Happy People Headquarters it seems. The Seattle Weekly posted an interesting article last week that has numerous accounts of scary, phantom acceleration and other bad behavior on the part of the saintly Prius hybrid. Sounds like a giant bowl of Not Good to us. Go to Seattle Weekly Article on Prius problems

The gray concept looks more '90s than '80s, look at the wheel size. Kind of reminds me of some Ford Ghia concepts. The green car is probably a '70s Bertone concept for Lamborghini. Not sure which one.

The blue sedan is a Studebaker Lark, maybe from around 1962 or so. The big car at the bottom looks like a 30s Bugatti Royale. The firetruck is something old, maybe a Faegol from the '50s. No idea what the first two concepts are, the first looks like something from the '90s and the 2nd from the '70s...vaguely reminds me of a Matchbox Lamborghini Marzal from the early '70s.

Happy Birthday....I'll be back in Denver for 2 friends' birthdays this coming weekend...both turning 40...time flies, I'll be 40 in a little over a year..

Do we have a ' hug it out' icon?

An old favorite of mine, similar theme: (the Joe Cocker live version) What would you THINK if I sang out of tune, Would you stand up and walk out on me. Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song, And I'll try not to sing out of key. Oh I get by with a little help from my friends, I get high with a little help from my friends, Oh I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends. What do I do when my love is away. (Does it worry you to be alone) How do I feel by the end of the day (Are you sad because you're on your own) No, I get by with a little help from my friends, Mmm I get high with a little help from my friends, Mmm I'm gonna to try with a little help from my friends Do you need anybody? I need somebody to love. Could it be anybody? I want somebody to love. Would you believe in a love at first sight? Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time. What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you, but I know it's mine. Oh I get by with a little help from my friends, Mmm I get high with a little help from my friends, Oh I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends Do you need anybody? I just need someone to love. Could it be anybody? I want somebody to love Oh... I get by with a little help from my friends, I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends I get high with a little help from my friends Yes I get by with a little help from my friends, with a little help from my friends

Ooooh yeah... they could do an edgy little brother for the SRX based off the Vibe..call it BRX or CRX..

One thing about the Vibe I gotta say--it looks much better than the Matrix..the Matrix is hideous, IMHO.

Yeah..that was one of the funniest Dilberts I've read in a long time...made me LOL..

Cool... my team is only 5 people, but one is in Minnesota, one is in Montana, one works from home frequently, and one works from 5:30am to 2:30pm, so we don't have in-person team meetings...usually a conference call and NetMeeting.

Ya... tomorrow is another day, a new sunrise, another commute, another 8 hrs in the cube...life goes on.

N/P...I'll probably get bored of Cubical and switch back someday...

Ya...I really hope Chrysler survives and once again thrives.... and I hope the 200C and NG 300C and Charger make it to production, along w/ the 4th gen GC.

Well, if everything is as cool as the Prius and Insight, we have nothing to worry about for the future....

Got both...I wouldn't live in AZ without a pool...have a nice big one--has a diving board, is about 25x15 or so, 12 feet deep or so at the deep end.

You wouldn't like 100 in April, then? Had a couple 100 degree days here last week. And it snowed in Denver today. I'll be back in Denver for a long weekend later this week, looking forward to the cooler weather.

I've always been a general car enthusiast, owned Ford, GM, BMW, and Chrysler products. I just love cars and driving in general...there are definitely some current GMs I'd like to own at some point in time or another, including the G8. I'm saddened to see Pontiac exit, but this has been coming on for a long time... I'm not going to give up on my car enthusiasm.

Probably..they said more plant closings were coming...

Ummm...that's what is..just a Daewoo generic.

It's business..GM is doing anything they can to survive right now. Maybe they can sell off a brand or two to Toyota.

Interesting... well, they could build a reskinned Avalon as an Impala (to get rid of the W- body), or bring back the Chevy Blazer name on an FJ Cruiser variant. Or a next-gen HHR based on the Matrix or xB. Or they could introduce a new midsize pickup for Chevy and GMC based on the Tacoma, to augment the Colorado/Canyon. Lots of possibliities (if they were to go beyond the Corolla platform). More realistically, sticking to the Corolla platform, I could see an HHR replacement or a small Buick sedan..
