  3. So now Cerberus didn't know how Chrysler was doing? If they think anyone believes that they're just a bunch of idiots. I'm 100% sure pre-acquisition due dilligence was performed, and if by any chance it wasn't the only ones to blame are Cerberus... Idiots!

  13. they don't count as most of them don't come in sail boats wearing 16th Century Pilgrim clothes, haha! 'Happy Thanksgiving' = 'Feliz Acção de Graças' So, once again, 'Feliz Acção de Graças' everyone!
  14. I'd like to see that as well... GM is the 'big elephant' that seems unable to change direction... I think there's a lot of untapped talent there and if someone shook up the structure a little it might be good... who knows? Maybe the bailout money can be the chance for something like that to happen!

  16. Some $h!ty bank here in Portugal woke up to figure out it needed EUR 750 million last week. I have decided I'll go to the Government and ask for the same amount of money... one has to take advantage of this while the Giving / Christmas Spirit is present in the minds of politicians
  17. Happy Turkey-Eating Day everyone! We don't celebrate any Pilgrims arriving over here, although we should celebrate the 1st Neaderthals to arrive in the Iberian Peninsula hundreds of thousands of years ago, if and only if that gave me an extra day off from work!
  18. I threw a toy car at my brother's forehead when I was 2 or 3 years old... It was a great weapon, so I've officially been into cars since then...

  20. Wasn't that spy-photographer one of our very own posters? :AH-HA_wink: Re the limo: I'd rather see it do 5 mpg than have some racist wacko kill the guy.

  22. I disagree. GM needs focus and if they had focused on letting SAAB be the brand it is supposed to be while sharing GM's engineering resources, SAAB would be profitable and would be in a much better position. But GM had to run it through the standard-GM-corporate-business-model... just because, unfortunately, GM doesn't know how to do any better and (I suspect) many people were afraid an alternative approach would be successful... Re Saturn, maybe you're right and Pontiac could have been a better outlet for Opels in the US. However, Saturn was such an expensive project, and it was the object of so much advertising/hype (I hope I'm dead wrong, but in many ways the talk reminds me of the talk surrounding the Volt) that GM has to go with it even if, in the end, it turns out to be a failure. Corporate politics do suck sometimes... Re Cadillac, I don't know if pushing SAAB would happen at Cadillac's expense, at least globally, since Cadillac's amazing track record of 3K sales/year in Europe tells me GM is already screwing up the expansion of Cadillac overseas. FOG, as much as it saddens me as a GM fan, I think it all boils down to lack of focus by GM. The sad part is that the lack of focus has gone on for so long that now there's no money to invest to get that focus back... As a SAAB fan I sometimes wish GM would sell the brand to a financially stable OEM...
