SCOOP! 2008 Audi A4!!
The A4 looks as I expected...front and rear detailing similar to the A5, the proportions of the A5, and the signature Audi sedan greenhouse...

Name the Ute
GMC Cascade. (Cascadia?) Or maybe use the Western town name theme like other trucks and SUVs.. GMC Telluride. GMC El Paso. GMC Tempe. GMC Arvada (this would sound good with the Acadia) GMC Cheyenne. (Chevy used to use it as a truck trim level long ago) GMC Scottsdale (Chevy used to use it as a truck trim level long ago) ...or G8 Denali

Name the Ute
How about Pontiac G7 or GMC SCT (or STC) (Sport Coupe Truck/Sport Truck Coupe)

BMW 135i Cabriolet
The last two digits used to be displacement, but BMW has strayed in recent years...the last US 328 had a 3.0, I think, for example..

Yes...I think the poster meant Gen Y....Xers like myself were born from '64-80, I think..I know plenty of Xers that drive Audis..

The '69 Daytona and '70 Superbird were wonderfully outrageous cars from an era of wonderfully outrageous cars.. those old American muscle cars are so cool..

Oh...My....God
This reminds me of a line from the movie '8MM'...'There are some things that you see, and you can't unsee them.' Great line.

The Future of Toyota - Autoweek
Probably only 1% of the buyers took 'em off road anyway, though. I've seen quite a few 4Runners on the trails in Colorado, though.

First Astra Sedan Leaves Polish Production Line
I suppose they could put the Astra front end on the Cobalt to get an Astra sedan out the door quickly for the US if they had to.. Here are more pics of the 4dr Astra.. 4dr Astra article

Someone had too much time on their hands during a cold, ugly Cleveland winter, I guess...

People are weird...
Unfortunately, the coolest, geekiest vanity plate is already taken in my state.. 'GEEKSTA'. Wish I'd gotten it myself.

2009 Dodge Journey!!
I would hope not..it's based on the Avenger/Sebring w/a 113 inch wheelbase and a 4cyl standard...maybe 4k lbs or less? One thing I wasn't sure of..is the Caliber/Patriot/Compass on a smaller platform that is also related to the Avenger/Sebring or is it something different?

So I'm feeling pretty confident
Even if they badge it a GMC, I'm sure diehard El Camino fans would still buy it and peel off the GMC badges and replace them with bowties...

2009 Dodge Journey!!
What's strange with Chrysler interiors is that they used to have padded surfaces on the dashes of some models..on my '00 GC, the upper dash (and surrounding the center stack) is a nice, squishy soft plastic..but the center console, door panels, pillars and lower dash are rock-hard plastic..

2008 Cadillac STS 3.6l DI - Black Cherry
That looks like the same color I saw a Lucerne in today...looked very sharp w/ cream interior and chrome wheels.

People are weird...
Wierd... Speaking of gas mileage, I saw a Prius today with a bumper sticker that said '50 MPG' and other writing I couldn't read.. I'd like to have a similar sticker for my Jeep that says '18 MPG'..

2009 Dodge Journey!!
Journey does sound like a good Land Rover name... I was thinking Atlantica to go with Pacifica.

2009 Dodge Journey!!
Looks good...is Chrysler supposed to get a version of this..maybe call it Sebring X or Atlantica?

Super hot weather or super cold weather
Yes, San Diego has a great climate.. I like it there a lot..have thought of moving there (though Nor Cal (SF Bay Area) would be better careerwise.

Super hot weather or super cold weather
I'd definitely take heat over cold...and sun over gray. I despise cold... I've lived in Phoenix and it doesn't bother me, just have to have good central air, a pool, and cars w/ good A/C. I really like the Colorado Front Range climate...never gets too cold or too hot, some snow, but sunny and dry pretty much all the time..

CONCEPT: Ford Verve
The side window treatment reminds me of the Mazda CX-7 and CX-9 for some reason...I like the color (would love to see a Mustang in that color). The grille is a bit over the top, though (trying to outdo Audi and Peugeot?)
