  1. 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...

  3. same It happens to me too. Cleavage FTW!
  4. And above all try and not make the mistake of letting something that isn't working rot right in front of you. If you have to be a bastard and just turn away, just do it and move on. Believe me, the alternative (watching things rot away in front of you) is much more painful.

  20. 1st picture = Wow! 2nd picture = US Focus 3rd picture = meh And IMHO Ford should lose the spoiler. The body-kit I can live with, but the spoiler just hurts the looks...
  21. you guys are too well organized: I haven't even started!!! But we're having two 3-day weekends in early December, so I'll do my Christmas shopping then.

  23. I wonder wtf GM was thinking when they had the idea of a brand built around safe but sporty and fun-to-drive FWD cars marketing a dressed-up Trailblazer...
