Never say never...these are interesting times...who knows what will happen to the Vette.

That's surprising...I would think they would want to keep them to keep the volume up at BG. Without Pontiac, BG dealers will have only 2 cars, a couple truck lines, 3 CUVs and a couple SUVs.

Those would require money to develop...in the short term, they will probably just rebadge the G3, G5, G6 and Vibe as Buicks. G3- Skyhawk, G5-Skylark (or use the Astra as the basis), and G6-Regal.

Could be a fun car if it weighed a bit less w/ the 3.6 DI engine...

Maybe Chevy can offer the Vette w/ the turbo 4 from Solstice or the Volt drivetrain.

Will have to watch it tonite at home. Looking forward to this, Star Trek & Terminator Salvation.

Ya..I was just listening to a podcast about the problem of counterfeit cell phones in China, including 'iClones'..i.e. iPhone rip offs. Since many of these phones (legit versions) are mfgrd in China, it's pretty easy for the mfgrs there to clone them quite cheaply.

Or the end of the current Cerebus phase and beginning of a new phase...

Geek Pride! As the saying goes, 'the geeks will inherit the earth'. Even w/ outsourcing and layoffs, I'd still rather be in the tech industry than not.

Cool..at one time, I had 5 machines on my home network, all with '60s GM names ending in 'A'.... Impala, Catalina, Ventura, Invicta, Electra.

Of course, I wonder if 90% of the posts are from a couple dozen or so regular posters... now the % of clicks on individual topics by those posters is another stat..

Or unspellable... I have a hard time speeling Touareg. And what about Routan, Tiguan, Touran, Sharan...

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..
