Besides GM, your other two fav brands.

[A Horse With No Name]

No doubt about it, Mazda and Porsche....after that VW is a distant third, Ford a distant Forth, and.... there are other car makers on the planet?

Seriously, GM, Porsche and Mazda are my big thee.

Yours?

[SoCalCTS]

Ford and Volvo.

[Robert Hall]

Ford and Chrysler for mainstream, Mercedes and Porsche for premium.

[Turbojett]

Ferrari and Lamborghini, of course.

Honorable mentions to BMW, McLaren and Nissan.

Historically, my favorties were GM, AMC and None.

And since GM discontinued my favorite two split grill divisions, GM is no longer a favorite anymore... so favorite makes as of 2011:

None, None and None.

I'm trying to warm up to Mopar, BMW, Mercedes... Lamborghini, but I doubt I would ever actually buy one, even if I could. Fisker has potential.

[vonVeezelsnider]

Mainstream: Chrysler then Ford

Upmarket: Volvo and Jaguar

[G. David Felt]

GM is my First choice and then Dodge followed by Ford. I normally would say do not send your profits out of the country, but then what company does not outsource and build out of country. I still prefer to support US owned companies first.

Without going into super-luxury, Audi and Alfa.

[Z-06]

Tata and Geely

[ocnblu]

Blah, I only get two? Because Chrysler, Ford and VW all have things I like.

[Lamar]

Mainstream: Nissan and Ford.

Upscale: BMW. Used to also be Acura, but they've fallen hard.

I have personal history with all the brands I named.

[daves87rs]

Ford and Honda.

[67impss]

In the past GM AMC ChryCo

In the now GM ChryCo Ford

Some what stuck with the Detroit makes but at least look at foreign makes now mostly from OZ land

[Blake Noble]

ChryCo and ... uh ... well, not much else. GM's hanging on to me by a thread these days. I want to like Ford and I like how far they've come product wise over the years, but there isn't a car they build that honestly grabs me by the balls and makes me all wide-eyed.

[Satty]

Lancia and Alfa Romeo

Scratch Alfa, Ariel makes incredible cars.

Let's do it this way (and I'm skipping the real exotics, because I don't think thats a fair comparison, and it's also too long of a list)

Also I'm doing NA market only and grouping by manufacturer.

2 thumbs up: Mazda, BMW, Subaru

1 thumb up: Nissan/Infiniti, Volkswagen/Audi, Daimler, FoMoCo

neutral: Honda, Hyundai/Kia

1 thumb down: Mitsubishi, Suzuki

2 thumbs down: Toyota/Lexus, ChryCo

Where does GM fit on that list?

[67impss]

Must be 1st place he did buy a Cruze Eco

[the_yellow_dart]

In with the 2 thumbs up.

[GMTruckGuy74]

1^st Place: GMC (use to be tied with Pontiac)

2^nd Place: Jeep (though I've never owned one, it's likely the only manufacturer I'd purchase from outside of GM)

3^rd Place: TIE between Ford (though the 'big mouthed bass' look with its new cars is making me question this choice) and RAM Trucks

[FUTURE_OF_GM]

I really don't have a favorite brand now....

I *want* to love Chevrolet but really, the only things they have that reallyimpress me are the Camaro, Corvette and maybe Cruze RS. Same thing goes for GMC and Cadillac... Nice stuff, but not really anything I'd buy at this point in my life.

I'd say Ford is probably my favorite "brand" right now... If I was shopping, I'd probably be purchasing from them in the form of a Mustang, Focus or Taurus.

Dodge is probably competeing with Chevrolet for second, but all they really have that I'd write checks for is the Charger or Challenger.

BMW would probably be my favorite 'fooore-in' brand.

The rest: Buick, Chrysler, Jeep, Fiat, Ram and Lincoln.... zzzZZZZzzzzzZZZZzz. Wake me up when they achieve HALF of the appeal that the discontinued "damaged" brands had.

[daves87rs]

Could be a while FOG...

[Turbojett]

well Fiat does own Ferrari, Alfa and Maserati...
