Rain...that counts as a spotting, right?

VW Bus that I really want. Another Seqway (or maybe the same normal one from yesterday) that I really really really want.

Astra Priced Starting $15,995
Agreed with Fly, there is a reason you can get a loaded Focus for $11k.

Does a bunch of Segways count as a sighting? 2 Police units, one camouflaged one (??? I dont get it) and one plain 'ol Segway.

New Challenger Spy Pics 8/10
Plus removing the B pillar adds cost. The Challenger will sell out at $35k with a B pillar, dont know if it would at $50k without one.

It's friggin' hot out here
Just checked the forecast and there is a cold front coming through early next week. Highs around 93 instead of 98! Woo Hoo! I'm going to make some snow angels!

2008 Buick Lucerne CXL - Autoweek
A Northstar, when properly maintained, isn't going to have any major problems in the first 5-6 years, just like any other new engine. Its when they get old and mileage adds up that problems occur, just like every other new engine. I would have no problem recommending a Northstar equipped vehicle to someone, especially with the warranty GM offers. Many people simply dont keep their new cars long enough for these problems to manifest, they happen to second and third owners who aren't going to be nearly as diligent about things.

Yeah, try going for a bike ride or going out kayaking at 6:30 am when its a cool 75 degrees out and finishing up a couple of hours later when its 95. Sucks.

What BV Must Park Next To...
I thought of BV's Millennia the other day while eating a watermelon Jelly Belly. Does the Ranger run?

Why should I care about Opel?
Vehicularly, Opel is pretty much the European interpretation of basic Chevy, just transportation, they just do it without the fringe stuff like the Camaro and Corvette. They play to the heart of the market, so you're not going to find much you would want to buy from Opel, unless you like the GT.

Why should I care about Opel?
Opel, for the reasons PCS pointed out, offers the future financial security that will allow GM to continue to produce low-margin niche models for enthusiasts.

The Caddy is nice, but the real story is that HAWT Tracker in back.

Bad drivers tend to own... Honda? Toyota? VW?
Camaros are a bigger problem around here than ricers. Plus the 3rd gens are ugly. There were like 6 attractive models in the 80's, the Camaro wasn't one of them.

New Company Ride: 2007 Jeep Compass Limited 4wd
I'd prefer the Patriot to the Compass, although I do think the Compass has potential as a sorority girl car if they would market it as such.

Chrysler announces lifetime powertrain warranty
Does it cover the cost of the rental or include free loaner use for the owners who have to leave their car at the dealership for weeks on end because their transmission went out and there are 14 cars with the same problem in front of them?

Bad drivers tend to own... Honda? Toyota? VW?
I had a woman in a Bonneville switch lanes at a red light to get next to me, try to keep up with me for about a quarter of a mile (I wasn't exactly burning it up) then jerk back over into my lane, follow me through two lights then jerk back over into the other lane to make a right turn onto a side street. Someone from Iowa driving a Taurus managed to take up two parking spots (nose-to-curb) on a pretty busy downtown street.

Dog Days - August
Out with Alex today, walking around downtown, we saw just about every model Mercury has sold in the last decade, including the Mystique and FWD Cougar. Seriously, whens the last time anyone saw one of those, I swear I haven't seen one in years.
