  1. That wouldn't surprise me....trying to do the 'everyperson' averageness that some say Bush had (with his fake Texas accent and ability to barely string a sentence together). And would someone explain to these people how to pronounce the word 'nuclear'??? I guess the folksiness is to appeal to the NASCAR/country music/God and guns crowd.
  2. A google turned this up...apparently it happened in May...I had the volume low I didn't hear all the details.. Article
  3. I saw it on TV...looked on the CNN website, couldn't find it. It was a gray previous generation Camry...basically, the driver put it reverse, floored it, went up onto the hood and got stuck on the windshield of the Crown Vic...
  4. They will just spend it on developing more boring FWD models for the mass market. Boring, but that is where the profit potential is.
  5. I don't know if it's on their website, but I just saw this video on CNN Headline News...a motorist that had been pulled over and ticketed for speeding put his Camry in reverse and backed up over the hood and into the windshield of a Crown Vic PI. All captured on video by the in-car camera in the police car...pretty funny.

  7. Given the relationship between Audi and Lamborghini and Porsche and VW, this Lambo may be on the A4/A5 platform or perhaps the same platform as the Panamera? Or maybe something completely new.
  8. Hellacool... so if they build this and Aston builds the Rapide, will Ferrari come up w/ a sedan version of the California?
  9. redlines.
  10. Yeah, a performance Volt would be cool...call it High Voltage... Something that would be cool would be a Solstice with a tweaked Volt drivetrain..sort of a budget Tesla. That would give Pontiac both green and performance credibility. Of course, GM would never do this, since they have Pontiac on the Oldsmobile path to oblivion..
  11. I wouldn't believe anything from Newsmax..isn't that right wing propaganda posing as 'news'?
  12. I can't imagine anyone singing for a boring old guy like McCain..say what you want about Obama, at least he inspires enthusiasm in people, unlike McCain who puts people to sleep with his tired schtick..
  13. PCS is mad that Pontiac didn't continue his beloved mediocre W-body Grand Prix and is now doing his part to help kill the brand from within GM
  14. Republicans.
  15. Maybe..to me, the Grand Am was just a dull rental car. Then again, I've never been a FWD believer...
  16. Alas, the GTO was the first model in a long time to have any relevance at Pontiac, which by 2003 was just another GM brand peddling mediocre FWD rental cars.
  17. I heard a radio ad for the Volt yesterday...touting the 40 mile range. But it's still over 2 years away...
  18. Yet Saturn gets GME products... so they will be the preferred child while Pontiac will be starved?
  19. Yes... an interesting factoid was that a 4spd manual was available on the '79 GP w/ the 301, supposedly only 232 were built. A buddy in high school had a dark blue '79 SJ. That was a sweet car...no vinyl top. Another A-body of the '78-80 generation I like is the Grand Am..not so much the front end, but esp. the profile..squint and there is a slight trace of the '64-65 A-body in the coupe roofline, IMHO.. The Supreme was good looking...actually, I think all of the '81-87 G-coupes were pretty nice...
  20. I agree..the Regal was the better looking of those two..later, the '81-87 Regal was my favorite looking coupe of that era. Though as far as the '78-80 A-body coupes go, my favorite was probably the Grand Prix..the only one with 4 headlights all 3 three years, IIRC. I always liked the dash w/ all the round gauges and vents. I haven't seen one in ages!
  21. Zoloft
  22. He's long been a favorite...was my sister's and Mom's favorite actor, I think..have seen many of his movies over the years. I love 'Cool Hand Luke', 'BC&TSK', 'Winning', 'The Sting', 'Absence of Malice', 'The Verdict', 'Color of Money', 'Road to Perdition', to name a few..
  23. Saw a white G8 GT when I walked to lunch..sharp. Saw a dark red '66 Caprice tonight..very sharp.
