The quicker GM gets this to market the better. Mid cycle or even mid year battery upgrades are totally acceptable until the "right" battery is developed. You can see that they are driving the vehicle right now, even if it is a mock up or prototype people would be ready today to purchase it imo. They could even do an inexpensive upgrade for current owners with incentives at point of purchase and discounts for the next generation batteries . The potential money the consumer would save on fuel may counter the "cost " of the newer batteries if they choose to do so. I say green light it and make sure it is 5 star crash worthy as well!

Nice job, new four door Riv!!!!I haven't drawn in about ...............god..................hang on....carry the 2 ...............A serious drawing in like 15 years (oil can....oil can) talk about rusty!!!!Crap, how long until the deadline?

He pitties the foo........

COBALT SS TURBO? sans supercharger? Beats me too!

Actually, Lutz said no minivan on Lambda or "new" minivan awile ago. I still think (like I stated in the other posts) we will get a European based replacement. The sketch is old(I posted months ago) is most likely the Trailblazer replacement pre design sketch. That will be Lambda. Just no minivan for Lambda.

I'm already half way there! Here's what I have so far.

HEAR HEAR BROTHER !!! Nailed it, I said it befoer and i say it again..........Patience. A better product takes time and needs time to perfect.

I hope they can keep tight wraps on this one without too much leakage. It seems everyone wants to see way ahead and then the slamming begins!! Like the NuBu. I absolutely love it but I hear more people crabbin than usuall(not so much here) I also hope MT was wrong. Blech! I still like my chop better Design wise that is.

nice looking car (can you say "blindspot"?) With that in mind, its tech advancements is the important factor. That being said............SWEET!

Doc Brown helped with the interior design. Don't believe me, ask Marty McFly Beautiful car!

I am looking for my 68 Cutlass S I traded years ago.(some of you have heard before). To this day I will keep looking for it!! $1,000 for it in 1989 w/ 64000 miles, garage kept always. It was my wifes Grandfathers car her dad sold to me! stupid stupid stupid to get rid of it!!!

Sign me up for an LTZ w/ the graphite interior!!!!I really love that car!!!!

For Lansing resident car enthusiests this is a sad sight . The removal of the Oldsmobile name from the Olds world headquarters. Oldsmobile sign to stay in Lansing GM giving letters and sculpture to R.E. Olds museum By Barbara Wieland Lansing State Journal http://www.lsj.com/apps/pbcs.dll/frontpage A visible piece of Oldsmobile history will get a permanent home in Lansing. General Motors Corp. said Friday it will donate the large Oldsmobile lettering atop the former car division's headquarters to the R.E. Olds Transportation Museum. The museum also will be given an abstract sculpture that stood at the south end of the building for about 40 years. The fate of those items, as well as that of other reminders of Oldsmobile, have been in doubt since GM made the last Oldsmobile car in April 2004. Advertisement GM spokeswoman Kim Carpenter said the Detroit automaker thought it fitting the landmark sign and statue should remain in Oldsmobile's hometown. "They're a part of Lansing history and Oldsmobile history," she said. "It's good that we can keep them (in Lansing)." GM isn't yet saying what it will do with the rest of the building or with the Lansing Car Assembly factory sites that used to make Oldsmobiles and other cars. The sign and the sculpture come from the 41-year-old Oldsmobile building that housed the division's marketing operations until 1998, when the work was moved to Detroit. The items will be given to the museum "by the end of the year," a GM statement said. The R.E. Olds museum is on holiday break, and Director Deborah Horstik couldn't be reached for comment Friday. But Jim Walkinshaw, a former GM employee and Oldsmobile historian, said the donations will make a great addition to the museum at 240 Museum Drive. "These are bits and pieces of Oldsmobile history. To save them is a worthwhile effort," Walkinshaw said. The sculpture will be located outside the museum, while museum officials try to find a suitable way to display the sign.

Post a Comment View All Comments Idea for the letters Sat Dec 23, 2006 11:43 am Hey, how about this: our baseball stadium is called Oldsmobile Park, and from what I understand will continue to be called by that name. Perhaps we could find a way to incorporate the "Oldsmobile" letters from their world HQ into the ballpark. That could be kinda cool!

My take on it is perhaps GM didn't invest too much of there available resources into the 10+ year old/ current minivan platform to free up funding on the Lambda and Zeta projects (which are ready now) and planned to use a european platform to convert to NA specification . It seems that it would take less funding to modify an exsisting sucsessful vehicle and add emenities offered by the others rather then developing an all new platform for 1 vehicle in this spacific place in the market. They are still widely used in the market but I wouldn't think the percentage of sales would justify an entirely new platform costing billions. Just a thought.

Cool, sign me up. By the time I get the calender, Ill be caught up with last years scedule!!!
