  1. Fantastic looking car.
  2. This car is really hard on the eyes. It is painfully ugly.
  3. Inside Line is reporting that this car will produced in 2009 as a 2010 model. Great, my lease is up on my import and it's time to jump back into a GM!!!!!! http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/News/articleId=124413
  4. Great car. Up until 2001, I had been a loyal GM driver. Since then, I have had 2 Nissan Maxima's and most recently a VW Passat. I am now 100% convinced that GM is back with the vehicles that will bring back former customers like myself. I was considering a BMW 3 series/Audi A4/Acura TL/Lexus IS250 for my next vehicle but a CTS will now be the next car for me. I just wish I could afford this one!!!!
  5. Ok, ok I get it. The Malibu sold comparable units per year as today's Camry 38 and 30 years ago but sorry, I just don't get how that is relevant 3 or 4 decades later. Different time, different market. But I guess I was wrong. FYI. Did you know the Model T sold 501,462 units in 1915? Nice entry level sedan. I'll bet Ford wishes the Fusion sold as much.
  6. Good point. Very good point. I have a lot of fun coming to this website. I've learnt more about GM products here than at anywhere else and up until 2000 had been a loyal customer. Since then I have owned and '02 and '04 Maxima, and now an '07 Passat. I am really, really impressed with the '08 Malibu. As well as the '08 CTS. After 7 years of not even giving GM a glance, I can honestly say they have finally given me a reason to come back, as I have posted previously. I am part of the reason why their sales have declined so much over the years. The new '08 Malibu is a steep departure from the previous car and will take time to take hold. Heck, after seeing it in real life I don't even recognize it from the 2007. I am impressed, and believe me I don't impress easy. The Malibu has never sold anywhere close to 40,000 units per month like the Camry, and after checking on another section of C&G, the '07 had only sold about 108,000 YTD by October. Can it sell 40,000 units per month overnight? Nope. Should it dramatically exceed 10,000 units per month like the previous car? I certainly think so. Will it bastardize sales of the Impala? I don't know, but I know I wouldn't buy an Impala. The Malibu, definitely. 40,000 units per month is a long, long road to travel. But at least they have a product that could go a long way in accomplishing that.
  7. I couldn't agree more. To all the naysayers out there who jeer and question GM at every bloody turn, answer me this: GM announces they will build a better Malibu.....You say it won't happen. GM shows at Autoshows they can build a better Malibu........You say the quality won't be there. GM displays a preproduction Malibu with style and quality.........You say it's a mirage. GM builds the better Malibu with Quality and Styling and delivers it to dealers.........You bitch about the numbers. They will build more, they will sell more. This launch has been 8 months in the making, but some out there believe they should flood the market with thousands upon thousands in the first month of production. How about some kudo's to GM for making sure they've got the production line up, fully functional and are delivering what they promised? Who out there would bitch and moan if there was a quality issue the first month? Great car, and I hope they got it right before they start full production. Geez, some of you out there are friggin' hard to please.

    Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..... Boring. Nothing more to add.
  9. Interesting to read the comments that say the old Vue is preferred over the new one. I would never, ever consider buying the old one but like the styling in the redesign. One reason why GM is in trouble is that not enough people (like myself) are looking at buying their vehicles. I thing GM is getting their designs in the right direction and I hope they keep it up!!
  10. I've had 2 Grand Prix's over the years. A 1991 Grand Prix SE and a loaded 2000 Grand Prix GT with the HUD. The 2000 Prix was one of my favorite cars and despite what anyone says, was extremely well built and never gave me a days worth of problems. Hence the C&G name I picked................2000GPGT. Here to the new RWD Grand Prix that will arrive in '08.
  11. It is definitely a good looking car, in my opinion. I believe the fit and finish will be there as this is a statement car for Chevrolet.
  12. I have been looking at all the small SUV's from all manufacturers and plan to purchase in the spring. The previous VU was not even in the picture but this one definitely is. Interior and exterior looks very good as compared to any of GM's competition and we will definitely be looking forward to a test drive when this comes out.
  13. This is a great looking vehicle from GM and they have delivered the goods.. I truly believe that this will warrant a look and take a good chunk of the market.
