Looks like it will have frameless door glass, like every Camaro in history..that's a nice touch on a coupe.

Cool..looks like a nice old Benz...looks like it is missing the hood ornament. I remember reading somewhere that MB used huge steering wheels because it's easier to steer if the power steering failed. My sister's '85 500SEL had the same wheel.

Toyota is like Microsoft or the Borg... resistance is futile..you will be assimilated.. Time to trade the GMC on a Tundra so you can fit in your neighbourhood.

I suspect his reaction will be similar to that kid that made the YouTube video defending Britney from the press... lots of screaming, crying and whining...

No big deal..and besides, the convertible won't have a b-pillar.

Wow...the car looks very solid. The '71-76 B/Cs I remember seeing in Ohio & Michigan in the '80s-90s were invariably really rough, rusted out, battered...likewise most of the ones I remember from S. Florida (salt air rust). A buddy in high school had a pretty clean '76 Electra coupe, but it had been repainted... I've seen very few of these cars around here in the last decade, the occasional Impala/Caprice lowrider, and that's about it.

Hmmm..very limited color choices, inside and out. And no manual transmission. Dissapointing.

Interesting..it happened on CO 82 over Independence Pass...I'm going for a drive there tommorow to see the fall color... it's a windy, twisty road that narrows to one lane in a couple places (on a shelf along a cliff).

I wonder if they staged that by partially unbolting the Tundra bed from the chassis...

Heh heh...the hypocrisy of it all... Found this also on Jalopnik about Jim Press--- "Press has always loved cars. He built his first go-cart at age seven, got his first car when he was 12. At age 13, he started washing cars at his family's dealership in Kansas. But he said he never bought a Toyota or Lexus. The only vehicle he owns is a Yamaha motorcycle. But he'll soon be driving Chrysler vehicles."

Cool..cool... I miss Europe...I must get across the pond next year...been too long since I was last in Europe (3 years). One of the sharpest wagons/wagon-like vehicles I remember from my '03 Italy trip was a black Opel Signum in traffic outside the Collesium in Rome....across the street from the Collesium was a dark blue Tahoe with a dark gray Trail Blazer parked behind it..they looked HUGE amidst typical compact European cars....

Looking at the greenhouse, the overall shape reminds me of a scrunched up, stubbier ES.

noo Foo Fighters CD...

I noticed the beltline...my first thought was that it reminds me of a disguised Dodge Avenger.

I wonder if the diesel will be available in the US.

I know..I was joking...and I wouldn't want one of these little cars unless gas prices went WAAAY up and/or my income went WAAAY down. In fact, I've long wanted a classic American land yacht, and my next car may likely be one of the last of the land yachts that are still in production...heck, they get better mileage than my current daily driver Jeep.

I've been lucky to avoid hail damage here in Colorado over the last 10 years...we are known for big hail storms. Most of the last 5 years I had a parking garage at work, so my cars never sat out during the day. Alas, my new job doesn't have a parking garage, so maybe the law of averages will catch up with me eventually...

Maybe the Super fascia will be applied across the line, as they did with the LaCrosse.

I saw a bit of it... looked like it has potential. I remember the original series from childhood, looks like the plot of this one is quite different. Good to see Miguel Ferrer (sp?) again..he's a good at villian/tough guy roles...who was the scary butch blonde woman with the square head?

The late model GP sales are something like 75% to fleets?

I always ask them to hold the pickle slices at sandwich places..I don't like pikles. I go out for bagel breakfast sandwiches and have to be very specific about the cheese...Einstein Bagels for some reason defaults on cheddar, which is ok on hamburgers, but out of place on a breakfast bagel...I usually want Pepper Jack or Provolone.

In recent years I've stayed with Hertz for personal use-- I've had a lot of Tauruses (maybe 10 times), Sables (5 times), Grand Marquis (4 times), Mustang convertibles (5 times), and Town Cars (4 times). The Grand Marquis or Town Car is now my preferred car of choice for rentals. Over the past 5 years, I used Avis for work trips: 3 Grand Ams, 2 Malibus, 3 Impalas, 1 Monte Carlo, 1 Grand Prix. Around 99-2002, I almost always rented an Intrepid( probably a dozen times), LHS, or Concorde, or 300M. My first car rental ever was a '95 Ciera in Washington DC in '95. Oddities/1 timers I've had include an '04 Ford Thunderbird convertible, an '00 Camaro convertible, an '05 350Z, a Subaru Legacy, a Mazda Protege, a '99 Cougar, a '99 Crown Victoria (black--looked like an FBI car), a couple Focuses, a Neon (horrible--above 45 mph it vibrated terribly), an Escort, and a Contour, a couple of Sebring convertibles, 1 Cavalier (ugh).

Beans...I can't handle black or pinto beans in burritos or with Mexican food in general (beans give me evil black poo). But I have no problem with white beans or beans in chili. I always ask for very little ice also.

I'd rather have them running the country than the Jesus freak/gun kook right wingers that have f*cked it up over the last 6+ years...

Yes, he's trapped in 20th century thinking and can't evolve into the 21st. The future is cars like the Fit, Prius, Agyo, Smart, etc. It's inevitable. The Fit is go!
