  1. Lets also hope they never do a Great things come out of Japan ad again from 1986. That was like the biggest black eye you could do to American workers.
  2. I do have to admit I love the Glee Club advertising.
  3. Interesting in searching I found that Life, Love and Living is a common theme on the international side. Wiki had the history but also added a recent list of marketing themes used around the world. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet Found this one that actually covers marketing from the begining to the recent. Just click on the 10yr period in the year bar to see the messages. http://adage.com/article/special-report-chevy-100/100-years-chevrolet-advertising-a-timeline/230636/ Course this was published in Oct 19th 2011 on Marketing blunders and tips for businesses and of course GM has both in plenty. http://internetmarketingtactics.org/international-marketing-case-study-blunders-tips-prevent/ Over all, I think a good program could be done on an international theme that would reduce marketing costs but raise global awareness of the products.
  4. Interesting and exciting to see, but I will take a wait and see attitude as I have not seen turbo 4 bangers last like a good solid V8. Get a 100K miles on these engines and they have pretty much lost their ability to move an auto where a V8 still can get you moved.
  5. Love it, This is great.
  6. Growing America Moving America Forward America's Forward Mover North American Made They need something that brings in American Made, supporting and creating jobs in america. North America Made products are good for everyone and for you.
  7. Your Right nothing in production but a 350HP Direct Injection V4! http://www.katechengines.com/engineering/katech-v4/
  8. Further Proof that these glamorized Golf Carts are not really ready for anything but inner city commuting in a short range. CNG is the future!
  9. Very cool, love the collision.
  10. Butterfly!
  11. I have seen a couple darts at the mall in the last week but have yet to actually hear one in the wild. Very cool, does it have a decent growl?
  12. Properly dialed in Twin Scroll Twin Turbo V6 could give the Vette a new line on customers with amazing power and fuel mileage.
  13. About time they went the proper route of keeping each brand distinctive. This will help in building loyalty and win people over from other brands.
  14. Dud you never take your mother with you shopping. Cardinal Rule #1
  15. Alaska, Last Frontier of the NRA!
  16. People who only half ass pull into a parking space sticking out in the lane of traffic and in at an angle so they make it very hard for the car to back out next to them and on us driving around the mall parking lot. What the f@#k is so hard about pulling your car all the way into the parking spot let alone being square in the spot.
  17. agreed! Too early to tell until they give us the final details on just how well this car will handle and perform.
  18. How about a GMC Terrain Typhoon II Ghost Rider Edition AWD. Paint Black Diamon, Comes with the Denali Package fully loaded but all Chrome is Black Chrome and on the front doors under the GMC Typhoon II Ghost Rider Edition Then you have at the end of the edition a Flaming head Using the new Twin Turbo V6.
  19. At least you never have to listen to complaints afterwards no matter how good or bad it was!
  20. Holiday Cheer
  21. Bad News, Wife loves the original Color as does the man your having an affair with.
  22. So a 6'6"tall 300lb person like me can forget even trying to get into these crackerjack cars. So entry level plastic, too small of seats, do the metal surfaces have rust on them like how ford auto's come, a bit rusty all over in the engine bay, brakes, etc. Can you tell where the corners are? Does the car have any blind spots that are just massive? Would a backup camera be a good thing for this car? Does the tranny have short or long throws? Any spong in the brakes? When sitting in side, does the dash have a logical layout and ease of reach to buttons, dials and feedback?
  23. I meant GM overall of the past 10 years or so. They did the SSR, Solstice/Sky and some novelties of Bob Lutz like the G8 and GTO even those were just imports, but then they abandon minivans, small pickups they have neglected as of late, the Impala was neglected for years until now, etc. GM for a lot of years liked doing those niche products, then putting a half assed Malibu out there to get clobbered by the Accord and Camry. Honestly we did not miss out on cutting the minivans, small pickups. Sadly we took forever in cutting name brands and making some into a niche product for a single brand. Long ago, 90's GM should have dumped more brands and focused on a 3 tier level of dealerships. Entry Chevy, Mid Buick/GMC and top Cadillac. Pontiac and Hummer should have been niche models in the GMC family along with the Buick. If this was done right, we would only have 3 brands today. GM has some old habits, but they are doing more right than wrong right now.
