I also recommend you call the regional district manager and recount your story. First, a call would go out to that dealer... and I'm sure you'd get the white glove treatment after a story like that.

Then do what he says and find another dealer. Are you familar with the Pontiac/Olds dealer on Route 8 in Shaler? They are very good, I took my Cutlass convertible to them a few times for service. I'm not sure where in the 'burgh you are, but I can point you in the direction of a few good pontiac dealers.

A Toronado that isn't FWD? That mean's it isn't a Toronado. That makes even less sense then calling this: a Camaro. The whole point of the Toronado was that it was FWD.

they've all probably spun themselves into a tree...

definately not

Don't think it hasn't crossed my mind..... :bluecutlass: <--- a pic of me driving my Cutlass Convertible...

I think it's more likely that Sebring owners are replacing their cars. They're tired of driving the same thing Chrysler's built for the past 10 years.

Do we at least get some mid-cycle refreshes?

I should have put what, where?

Bluetooth... seriously. just because I'm willing to dump 60k on a car doesn't mean I want to pay through the nose for a cell phone I can only use while driving.<onstar> with a seperate number from the one I normally use.

Reg, It's not so much a "defense of farming" but a disgust towards the Saudis that drives me. If GM could build a car that ran on British Beef, I'd be all for it as long as it was resonably enviromentally sound <or at least no worse then gas> and didn't come from unstable middle easter countries.

Ford offering RWD what? Their newest RWD platform is already 6-7 years old. Oh goodie, they've got the Mustang. Not bad for the 4th try! on the platform.

truth.

The Aura is a slightly polished G6/9-3. The only thing really new about it is the 6-speed. Everything else is parts bin.

See... I'm all about the '58 Buicks and Olds myself.

talk about putting all your eggs in one basket

You really need to not base your impressing of 4-cylinders on those cars. Really Paulie, those are 3 out of the 4 worst 4cylinders that I can think of off the top of my head. <the 4th being the Quad-4>

ugly but competent

Actually, in the question of "whose property is Ben Roethlisberger's body?", the answer is "The NFL".

I think the 4 cylinder, 5-speed Milan is probably the most European feeling/looking American car out there.

Interesting that there aren't any Subarus. Excellent crash test results <the Jap Volvo>, and the ability to avoid an accident in the first place, plus the lowest center of gravity available this side of Lotus.

I might be able to go.

Better performance than any automatic in: 1. Power delivery 2. Smooth operation 3. gas mileage 4. lower weight It sounds more complex than an auto, but really, it's just a manual with two clutches and an unconventional <not complex> setup.
