  1. How very old-school GM. The presidential limo needs to be replaced by something zero-emission. Thats right, I'm talking about a horse drawn carriage. All the armor will make the carriage heavy, so a team of 40 horses will be necessary. Or maybe some oxen, a la Oregon Trail. The president can also take 5 sets of clothing, 1000 pounds of non-perishable food and a spare axle!
  2. The huge front overhang just makes it look oddly proportioned, at least in pictures.
  3. I prefer cars that dont weigh twice what the should.
  4. The Cooper and Cooper S are fantastic values, even when you add some options. The convertible and Clubman can get crazy expensive if you want some of the cool stuff.
  5. Someone at work has a red Clubman with a black roof and rear trim. I dont like it. I could possibly get behind black/silver/silver or BRG/silver/silver, but thats moot because she doesn't like the Clubman.
  6. I saw a black over yellow one a year or so ago and loved the color combo. Red is a bit cliche for the car. Black with a white roof looks good, too.
  7. They quit building them, unfortunately it was long after people quit buying them.
  8. The tC needs a replacement fast. It doesn't need to "grow up" the way the xB did, it needs to remain what it is, only better.
  9. If they die, they wont be capable of going away, so they'll just be dead, stinking up the joint.
  10. Yeah, we'll probably have to, its going to take a while to get here if we do.
  11. My brother-in-law's step mom had a Century that developed a crack across the steering wheel after a couple years. She went and had it looked at, when the popped the airbag cover off, it was discovered that the car had an invisible (or non-existent) airbag.
  12. I know its a camera phone, but still, get your finger out of the pic.
  13. I had one dealer give me an exceptional trade-in amount for the Prius, sight unseen, so thats a plus. The negative is that nobody seems to be coming up with something close to what she'd want. A yellow Cooper (though she'd be willing to get an S if it came set up the way she wants) with a stick, premium package, comfort plus package and cold weather package is apparently too much to ask.
  14. $1.77
  15. Ok, so the other day my better half went out to lunch with a co-worker, they took her Mini Cooper convertible. Jill fell in love with the car immediately, and loved it even more when she got to drive it back. It was an auto, I assume it wasn't an S, since she said it didn't feel really fast. The more we discussed it, the more it became apparent that she had developed an infatuation. We've got some emails and phone calls out, so we'll see what comes of it.
  16. Seems to me Rick is asking for money to finance GM doing what it has been doing for the last decade. With Rick in charge, GM is dead within a year, without Rick, GM very well may be dead within a year, but at least they'll have made an effort.

    Frustrated

    Unfortunately, private institutes aren't too much better.
  18. The trucks have always been top notch, but that bubble had to burst. The bread and butter cars have improved, while the 1995 Lumina was about 5 steps down from a 1995 Camry, the 2008 Malibu is one step down from the 2008 Accord. They haven't gotten good enough fast enough.
  19. My next car purchase should be coming shortly, and it will save about two and a half feet of garage space. :AH-HA_wink:
  20. trailer
  21. Not a good one, it makes GM execs look greedy. The company is going under, losing a billion a month, but we're going to collect huge bonuses unless the government helps. Thats awful, if the powers that be at GM think like this, they deserve to be canned and get nothing in return.
  22. They cant limit executive compensation without government aid?
  23. $1.72 (with a car wash) $1.80 is the lowest I've seen NSA
