Well not entirely true. The Regal was always planned for sale in China. The Saturn was just going to be the Insignia we see today with the name scratched off. With the death of Saturn, GM just took the Chinese fascia and put it on the Opel.

I've seen the interior in person, and I love the design.

The amount of errors in that article...... 1. No the 2.5 doesn't fill the role of the V6, GM never claimed this 2. Yes a turbo is coming. 3. Yes we can expect a price drop 4. A Malibu LS is $22,700, so the e-Assist would be additional over that, not the 1LT price of $23,300

We have a lot of Sprinter ambulances here. The non-sprinter ones seem to run Topkick or F-series SD cab..... so maybe the Econoline will be supplanted by greater chassis cab availability when really heavy duty is needed.

They are 0.4 inches different in length. But they aren't that comparable since the Regal is quieter, more comfortable, uses much higher quality materials, handles substantially better, and will last longer. Agreed totally!

As I thought this out, there are very few cars right now that don't fit this chart. The Challenger being one that jumps to mind first.... other than that... this is pretty much how it goes.

get another similar vintage... sounds like you already have a parts car lined up for your next miata.

Hyundai can't keep the hinges from rusting 3 years in around here.... they certainly aren't going to make it to 20.

Didn't the old Quad-4 get run at those speeds AND raced?

No more teasing, Jeep!

Names? what are those?

Because they were "cute and retro" right around the same time the New Beetle came out..... but they were cheaper and easier to get.

Happy Birthday Cort.
