  1. Buy low, sell lower? Just for reference, what was GM at a year ago?
  2. Has the Yaris had a retail sale? Ever?
  3. By the time the Volt finally gets here, GM will be an afterthought amongst hybrid buyers who have seen the Prius on roads for the better part of a decade. Hybrids are a mostly unknown quantity, and the Toyota hybrids have a track record, GM doesn't Plus, the Volt is going to be pricey.
  4. I miss lordstrafford, buickman and razoredge. Not really.
  5. Worst part, her speeding ticket was far speedier than mine. 80 in a 45 compared to 50 in a 35. I felt so inadequate.
  6. Wikipedia article
  7. Then Sawzall the b-pillars out.
  8. Actually the CRX is a pretty sporty ride, it may not go 0-60 in 4.1, but they handle quite well. Same with the Prelude, Cooper, Scirocco, and several other FWD cars over the years.
  9. Supply and demand. You'd be seeing this happen with Malibu and Aura hybrids if they had higher production and actually got mileage worthy of the price increase. And the Plasmacluster looks absolutely ridiculous in person.
  10. MINI Coopers are fun to drive, but the Cooper S is indeed more fun, the extra power does that. But yeah, just like the Astra, they're not cheap.
  11. I've got a recently single friend who really needs to meet someone, because frankly he's an ass when he isn't getting any. I told him I was going to set him up with a Craigslist ad, and maybe if I get bored a Cupid membership. He said thanks, but he doesn't do fat chicks. I insisted that not every woman looking for a man online is fat, some of them have penises. For the record, my fiancee and I met the old fashioned way, sitting in a courtroom, waiting to enter pleas for minor traffic violations.
  12. He's at home, washing his tights
  13. Good, then maybe I wont have to see a lot full of unsold Nitros on my way in to work everyday.
  14. I've got a friend who just went through a divorce and ended up with the F-150 Crew Cab his wife made him buy about a month before they got married. The thing gets awful mileage, and he's had nothing but problems since he put a new exhaust on it. He's also got an 80's Mustang GT convertible, which isn't even close to being drivable, so he's really hurting when it comes to paying for gas. He has been talking about getting a bike for some time now, but hasn't pulled the trigger. It makes sense for him.
  15. I know a few people who have considered going from 2 cars in the garage to a car and a motorcycle. Seems like a great idea for commuting, as long as the weather cooperates. And yes, Carbiz, the Aveo is a piece of crap. It may have a lower cost of ownership than a Prius, but nobody will cross-shop the two. The Prius is far larger and gets far better mpg. And, oh yeah, it doesn't suck.
  16. GM's problem is that they dont make all of their decisions based on a small segment of the population that happens to gather in a small corner of the internet? All you're proposing, Camino, is a focus group, just a focus group that comes up with what you want instead of what GM's focus groups have been coming up with the last 20-30 years.
  17. Bush is in his own category when it comes to incompetence. He's this centuries Warren G Harding. But dont worry about McCain, he's 72, and presidents get old fast, so he wont be a 2-termer, may not even get 1 full term in. Not that it matters, he's not going to win. That said, McHale has made some pretty bad moves, and GM has been running itself into the ground for the last 20 years.
  18. 0 I'm probably in Saab's target group (young professional assholes) but the new models dont have the magic of the old 900. In a few years, if they bring back hatchbacks and quirkiness, I may bite.
  19. An L200 and an L300 by my parents, my L200 was used. Probably not, the Astra has too many shortcomings (and no diesel to make up for them) and the Aura is underwhelming.
  20. None Never in a million years, I may be a douchebag, but I will never be a Hummer driving douchebag.
  21. None and nope
  22. None, although our '96 Buick was purchased new Nope
  23. None, although we tossed around the idea of a CTS before getting the Prius Probably none
  24. None Maybe a Camaro convertible, depends on how things shake out over the next few years.
