  1. [sarcasm] I'm sure this guy's biased and NYT is in GM's payroll [/sarcasm] Isn't that what people say when Toyota/Honda get favourable reviews? Why not say it now?

    disclosure
  3. True, they lost money because their structure was too heavy, and that heavy stucture means earnings are more elastic to swings in volume and/or contribution margins. Integrating Engineering, manufacturing, and so on means they do not need to sell as many cars as before to earn a competitive return on capital. Which leads me to a question: why is lowering sales targets a bad thing in itself? Are 250K sales at a loss worth more than 150K sales at a profit?
  4. True.My car doesn not have a spare, and the one flat tire I ever had was due to a huge tear on the sidewall that the repair kit could not handle. The plug-in-the-cigarette-lighter-compressor in the trunk is good to have though.

  9. It looks good even with the US-spec bumpers.
  10. I thought this thread was about the girl that works on the 6th floor of my office building: That's excessive heat warning!!!
  11. I'd like to see those numbers. This says otherwise regarding '06 sales, and don't forget that integrating Saab in GM Europe helped lower their breakeven point. I don't think the Cadillac will offer a FWD version. IMO TE should be shared between Saab and Buick: I think Buick could use a smaller than Enclave crossover. Cadillac should get a 2 row crossover (based on their RWD platform) that would compete with the X3 (what I believe the SRX would have been if they hadn't redesigned the Vizon's rear end to accomodate a 3rd row), and have a larger unibody 3-row crossover that would eventually take the upper-SRX and Escalade's spot.
  12. Al Gore invented it too

  14. Of the Epsilon-based vehicle (IIRC it's been called a crossover) rumoured to replace the Signum?
