  1. you need an intervention.
  2. This car is a leader car. GM is trying out a new segment even smaller than the RDX. Who else out there has a premium sub compact CUV? I showed Albert the picture of the Opel and he said he wants one. I think that is a sign that Buick has targeted the car right.
  3. I actually like the styling of the Quest. It is rather handsome for a minivan.
  4. A Honda that doesn't live up to the MPG ratings? You don't say!
  5. "Chicks" actually have more overall purchase influence in the market than "dudes".
  6. it goes to show you that the W-body is more interesting than an AMG G-wagon....
  7. Now.. about that 200......
  8. What small CUV isn't a chick car? Even the ones that are more manly are "Chick who like chicks" cars.
  9. No. The Impala has the DOHCss, the Vtechs, and 6-speedss. On a serious note, I do want to drive a 2012 Impala sometime. Apparently they all have the Cop spec suspension and now with 300hp up front, could be a hoot to drive in that "can we replicate the Blues Brothers chase scene?" sorta way.
  10. I see these as primarily being work trucks for people who don't need a full sizer..... The Transit-Connect of trucks. As such, they don't need quite the dealer network that a Chevy or Ford would.
  11. When I sat in the 300 Executive last year, the thing that really jumped out at me in that car was that the wood had a texture. That, along with the color of the leather seats made the car feel like a classy old country club lounge somewhere.
  12. For 2011 - a thinning of the fog. For 2012 - I hope a sunny day.
  13. The high end ones really turn my eye.
  14. well... not anymore you aren't. I like the idea of ethanol, but I hate that we've been forced to use just the corn version exclusive to all others. Corn is one of the worst ways to make ethanol, so hopefully now that the playing field is more level, the better, more efficient ways to produce it will come online.
  15. That'll put the blitz in your krieg.
  16. When did the wood in cars last have texture? (outside of Rolls and Jaguar)
  17. Looks like Canadian Bacon is right, another block dropped today.
  18. Got passed by the new Mini-Cooper Cooper coope coupe today.
  19. I'm surprised not a single one of you commented on this. Ethanol has been a topic of hot debate on here for years.
  20. This is totally the car I would get if I were back in the market again for a lux sedan. Unfortunatly (sorta) the next vehicle will either have to be a truck or small CUV for Albert and I get the CR-V for a work vehicle.
  21. Hey! That's less than 15 miles from me!
  22. I had the downsized '83 Caprice with a 3.8..... I got out run by a VW Rabbit diesel of similar vintage. However, it got extremely good fuel economy on the highway for a full size car of that era, and with the size fuel tank it had, that gave it an excellent cruising range. Considering who originally bought it, my Great-Grandfather, it was perfect for him. Not in any hurry to get anywhere and wanting the best fuel economy he could get in a full size car.
