Hello

Lamborghini Gallardo Concept S anyone?

What do you guys think of this concept from 2005

personally i really like the look

yeah, im thinking GSX name, since it was a GSX the last time they built a buick regal on the W platform

Wagon

Good luck in your search

...interesting...

What do we want? Diesels!!!

When do we want them? Now!!!!

So the choice is a 138 hp/140 lb-ft engine or a 161 hp/266 lb-ft engine that gets better mileage. Hmm, that is a tough choice. And put that engine in the Equinox also.

Hopefully GM will give it a bit more power by then, i won't hold my breath, but maybe they will give an engine update

and maybe that new front end that was on the internet some time back

So like how the ATS will outclass a CTS that has been on the market for 5 model years?

depends if the new CTS wont be out for five more model years

I agree profitability is most important. But they need to sell more than 700 CTS's a month like Audi does with the A6.

CTS sold 5200 units in Dec.

Last time I checked, 5200 is more than 800.

Yes, but that is without the ATS in dealerships, and no STS in dealerships either. The CTS sells well now, but what if base price goes up $10,000 over night, and a cheaper car is offered. They want the CTS to get bigger and more expesnive, thus exactly what the STS was, and the STS was a dud. So my point was only that the CTS better be fantastic, and not another STS, because they can't afford STS sales volumes.

But, was the STS better than the current CTS?

No, it wasn't the STS worked when it was the first gen, by the time the current gen CTS was two years old the STS was outclassed

Well, right there we have the Tsar Bomba dropped on my driveway

Does ATS stand for Alpha Touring Sedan?

i think It's just another letter, like XTS

dfelt

______ touring sedan CTS

______Luxury roadster XLR

______ crossover SRX

is what i think they are

i was too young to really comprehend 911, first grade, but i know it is a very significant event in that it changed the way we thought about air travel, and the way air travel was dealt with, security wise.

not sure about a #2 though

I had no idea these had pillar less windows, interesting...

The seller should share whatever it is he's smoking.

JEERS!

maybe that is in the trunk that's driving the price up

pause

Other than some hardware changes as far as the engines and maybe other dirty bits, the F150 is a 9 yr old design that had one refresh a few years ago and has bland blocky styling and an ugly cheap, plasticky interior. It's nothing for Ford to crow about...(well, other than being #1 in sales for the last 40 years or so?)

#1 due to being the Cheap Redneck truck of those that seem to not want to demand a nice better truck. They are the Plastics of the Plastic industry.

So you prefer the GM interior that gets ragged on over the ford or dodge that most critics put on top?

(serious question.)

i haven't had first hand experience with all of them so i don't know

I wished GM wouldn't cancel a model BEFORE the replacement arrives.

Yes and rarely does GM do like Toyota and replace a Camry with a Camry or Corolla with Corolla. GM lets a car die on the vine, then kills it off waits 3 months and releases an entirely new product with a new name. Like minivans and GMT360s get killed to be later replaced by Lambdas and the current Equinox, which is nearly the size of the GMT360 Trailblazer.

Yeah, about the only constants in car names GM has had over the last decade have been the Corvette, Malibu, and Impala....plus Camaro and Regal which have been brought back after a few years away.

suburban, Grand Prix, etc they're there if you look

Around here in northwestern Ontario people prefer trucks, People i know actually hate cars, and drive these

other than that close to the same situation as Mr. $wordfish i could see not having a vehicle in a city, but in small towns there is no public transit

pack

Camaro?

mirrors & roofline look like one

supposedly the first "all five stars" under the new crash test standards, wonder how fast you'd have to get going for results like that...

and yet he survived o.0

The most annoying thing is when News shows and people who don't like the volt act like they couldn't sell ten thousand when it was actually just slow production.

The ordering should pick up over time

7:48, that's faster than the first Z-R1 Lap time!

No they have the ZR1 down to something like 7:19.63.

The CTSV 7:57

The Z06 with the full Carbon package is 7:20.66

Camaro SS did an 8:20

Note the ZL1 7:41.27 was stock trim on stock OE tires. Full cage, fire system and 30 pounds of test equipment. The driver was Aaron Link GM driver and engineer.

Just to put it in perspective the 911S is 7:41.23 and the Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera (7:40.76)

GM should be given credit to make the technology to really take a heavy car and turn it into a real Super Car. I think the age of the Muscle and Pony car has finally passed on as this car is proving to be stepping into a area only the elite cars tread and at a price less than the ZR1. This should mean we should really expect even more from the improved Vette and future Alpha Camaro.

7:48, that's faster than the first Z-R1 Lap time!

My fathers avalanche with a 6-spd automatic only goes to fifth in town it seems like so i can't really imagine another four gears
