When you were young and your heart was an open book You used to say live and let live (you know you did, you know you did you know you did) But in this ever changing world in which we live in Makes you give in and cry Say live and let die Live and let die Live and let die Live and let die What does it matter to ya When you got a job to do You gotta do it well You gotta give the other fellow hell When you were young and your heart was an open book You used to say live and let live (you know you did, you know you did you know you did) But in this ever changing world in which we live in Makes you give in and cry

I saw an Audi A5 coupe up close for the first time tonight. Black on black. Beautiful car....love the design...

What is this 'my car' you keep referring to?

Except for the Solstice and GTO, lately Pontiac's slogan could have been: Pontiac: The Hearbeat of Avis. Hopefully, the G8 can help turn the image thing around...

The C-pillar & quarter window shape looks like it's from the A5...

Hmmm....seeing any GM from before around 1990 is fairly rare for me... and other than at car shows, it's very rare that I see any GM's from before 1980..

My Grand Cherokee does the same thing...I don't believe it..

Were the Camaro concepts at NYIAS?

I had a good, but busy, Easter weekend. Flew to Dayton Friday night, hung out w/ my sister there on Saturday, went down to Cincinnati (great views from the riverfront) and saw Bruce Springsteen in concert Saturday night (rock on!), then drove across the state (in a rental Jetta from Hertz) for Easter dinner w/ my mom, brother & sister, then back to Dayton and back to Denver this evening. Good weather overall, though some snow flurries Sat in Dayton.

fsck (Wikipedia entry on the word..)

'In the Evening'--Led Zeppelin...love the riff in that song.

I'd love to see the CTC in black cherry...love that color!

My best years in my life are the here and now and the future yet to come.... looking back too much and dwelling on the past isn't healthy, so I'm looking forward.... I've enjoyed each phase of my life so far (childhood in Ohio/PA, jr high & high school in Florida, college in Ohio, grad school hell in Michigan, 20s-30s professional growth era in Colorado, late 30s transition to Arizona that I'm starting now).. I enjoy looking at old cars at car shows and occasionally driving my oldies, but I much prefer modern cars for daily use...

The French names go waaaay back in their history--Chevrolet, Cadillac..

Looks interesting...I wonder if this is on a GM platform (seems to be Epsilon sized). Suzuki Kizashi

Yeah, the Kappas are sub 3k and the Camaro will be closer to 4k...?

1970. I was born in June of that year... I'd love to have been around then and had serious coin, for the cars and the music. Cars like the '70 Challenger, '70 Cuda, '70 1/2 Camaro and Firebird, '70 Grand Prix, '70 GTO, '70 Mustang Mach 1,'70 Ford XL, '70 Marauder, '70 Cyclone and Torino, etc and the sleek new B- and E- bodies for '71 that came out in the fall ('71 Riviera and Impala in particular) would have definitely got my attention...

They have them in the West also... pizza & sub places often have 'em, as do chains like Old Chicagos...

Yes, just like software projects..sometimes teams of people can spend years building something that ends up a commercial and critical failure. Such is the nature of the business. Not every car is praise-worthy...

Yep, and 20 years from now it will be well remembered, people will be driving them and restoring them, while the '04-08 W-body GPs will be going to the crusher..

I had my Cheesesteak and TastyKake today..at Pat's...probably the most authentic cheesesteak @ 5280. Had Thai (chicken panang curry) for dinner @ my favorite local Thai place, Thai Spice.

Would be an interesting little hot hatch here, esp. if Dodge does a Breeze SRT4.

Pontiac is American. The Pontiac G8 is thus American. Let me rephrase, it's a US North American market RWD model. Does that fit your f@#king narrow-ass definitions????

And a lot of them are just silly kids that can't even afford a new car, let along a $30k+ one...

I saw a new Impreza today... ugly little runt.
