Kappa cars to move to Bowling Green ~2011
I think you're right.How about Pontiac getting the axe and a 2nd gen Kappa roadster moving to Chevrolet, together with a NG Sky and a mini-XLR for Cadillac? That would require a higher capacity plant. Also, Since Kappa's engineering was very much inspired by the Corvette/XLR platform, why not bring the ng Kappa more in line with the C7 platform? It doesn't have to be a single platform with 'long' ans 'short' versions, but it coould be something close to that. Finally, there's another benefit to this: with higher gas prices, demand will drift towards smaller cars in general. Having all sports cars built in a single facility makes it easier to adjust the production mix to match market demand.

i was thinking about pulling over while driving: when you just have to pee now... 'recreation' and 'behind' is a curious association, one that reminds me of a Brazilian girl I met a few years ago response to thread: sports

Spied: '10 Buick LaCrosse
It'd be interesting if the Opel flagship ended up being an Aura: there's been talk of an Epsilon-based crossover, and there's also the Holden Calais rumour...One thing's guaranteed: If the Aura makes it here as the Opel flagship instead fo the Calais, PCS will be a happy man

How long will you wait for a parking spot?
That reminded me of an ad in Portuguese TV: this guy parks his immaculate red Mondeo far away from other cars and when he turns his back on his car a satellite falls right on the car EDIT - I park as far away as possible from other cars at the park near the office. Some people have no respect for other people's cars...

Quiz: How well do you know the United States?
If I had written 'foreigner', I would have been reminded of the music band I can always re-write it as '84%: Not bad for someone who isn't American and doesn't live in the US, eh?' BTW - why are you going to Kuwait? Military duty?

So, in your opinion, is a conclusion of new Saturn = Vectra clone with Aura staying in the lineup while it sells a dumb one? Or would that imply new Saturn = Vectra clone with different options currently under consideration for the post-2012 Aura?

You always post interesting stuff!That page 11 = Some interesting stuff for us to have fun discussing: Global Epsilon Chevrolet - Epica replacement on swb Epsilon? CTS Wagon and Coupe - YAY! Zeta products (two styles) - If Impala and Camaro go to Canada as has been talked about, does this mean 2 Cadillacs? Swb and Lwb STS replacement?

I believe Vectra/9-3 will be on swb EpII and the others will be on lwb EpII. If the Aura becomes true a clone of the Vectra, then it will be on swb as well instead of the present gen lwb.

SPY SHOTS! Cadillac CTS Diesel
No, I'll complain to Cadillac people that apparently have never seen at the VW Phaeton's tail light covers: no amber cover, yet the turn signal LEDs light amber. Must be some sort of miracle by VW's suppliers... wholly agreed on that one! Diesels' fat torque curve would be appreciated by American drivers.
