Interior and exterior are nice, this would get some peoples interest, but I have to wonder how a Chevy priced FWD Mercedes will affect their luxury standing. Will the American Public accept a chevy priced FWD vehicle like this along side a 100K MB luxo sedan? I truly do not see this selling well as your average Chevy buyer does not cross shop with MB. Did MB say it was truly coming to America?

This one has me stumped even with the hints and using Bing,

I have to say this is a very nice ride. Makes me wish that Cadillac had kept the XLR and taken it to the next level. Cars like this will never be high volume, but they are halo cars that you need to drive interestin the whole brand. Wish I had the funds for an XLR-V I loved that car.

Both are very interesting auto's and I do think they can be very successful in todays market.

I do not see how cutting the price to move and get them selling is going to hurt the stock price. Toyota took losses on their ugly Prius line for years. With the Profits theyhave right now, it is time to take the loss on everyone to get them sold and build up by word of mouth just how awesome these cars are.

SWEET, This is one car I would pay that price for and drive it home. Great way to get a piece of history at a resonable price.

Boy for $500, I would take it and strip it down the the Frame and start over. I can see this baby with a nice Black Powder coated frame, modern suspension and then put on a RamJet 502 with a 6 speed tranny, properly insulate the body as it would be finished in a Metallic Candy Apple Red with about 6 coats of clear to give it some depth. Decent clean on the simple side 20" rims riding at factory stock height. No beaner car, but a beautiful P60 with Modern engine, electronics and a paint job. Drive it around to all the High Schools to show the teens what a real car can look like and then burn it out and show them what real American V8 is all about. No, gotta go buy a lotto ticket so I can do a project.

It was amazing what people paid for those rebadged Troopers just for the Acura Logo on them. What over priced SUV's.

WOW, Love this car, to me I could see it sell for about 20K, so it is about 48K over priced. CHEERS on Quality of the Auto JEERS on Price.

Letter to GM, You finally have world class quality products and the competition fighting to stay in the game. You are making your biggest profits ever. Take a page from Toyota, SELL THE VOLT FULLY LOADED FOR $25,0000 You will sell everyone you can make, people will be happy and before you know it, you will not only have recaptured your R&D cost, but you will be able to easily expand the product lineup for auto's based on the Volt. NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR DEALERSHIP GOUGING!!!

GM, Needs to take a bigger loss on these cars just as Toyota did to get them out on the roads and get people using them and being seen on the highways. With 8 Billion in profit, they should see a few million loss on these as marketing to get the cars out and running. Sitting on the dealer lots due to the price being to high does not help GM. I also wonder just how many are base models, the units I saw at the two chevy dealerships were fully loaded and the sticker showed after gov rebate that the cost would still be 40K for this car. I think this is still about 10-15K to high for most people.

Walked through my companies parking garage, I now work for Isilon which went public a little over a year back and was recently bought out by EMC. The engineers have gone nuts with car purchases, a total list of Porche, BMW M, Cadillac V and AMG. Very weird to see how groups seemed to all buy like cars, the dealerships must have gone nuts in the last couple of months here.

Growing up in the late 60's and 70's Muscle cars and Disco is in my Blood!!!

That is Freaking way to funny. Amazing auto's in the ad. Your right that is a mindF@*K.

Not sure exactly, but it's been some time... Around 2001 we started to become a country of Can't seems 9/11 has allowed the Gov to tell you what you CAN'T and Can do. More CAN't thand CAN. Very sad editorial of our last 12 years.

Sweet Rocket ship that would have helped propel the sales allot higher and kicked the ugly Miata down to the ground.

Awesome safe ride for a teenager to learn in.

I do find this interesting as we already seem to have far to many brands in the world market with some companies struggling to remain profitable. This does not mean that they could not become profitable with a select focused market segment for bare essential cars. Yet how will they hold up against other more established players who are in the market? Interesting move for Nissan, will be watching this one for sure.

Excellent review, I have to agree with the other guys that Ford and Hyundai's styling is a bit trendy and while it can strike a cord fast and gather sales, I do not believe it will age well and could have just as fast a cold drop in sales as the fickle buyers of trendness shift their focus next year. I believe that people will find a higher resale value in the cruze over the long haul more so than the Hyundai or Ford. I still get plenty of compliments on my 94 Suburban and people are shocked it is as old as it is. The auto manufactures need to find just the right balance and with that, they will have a vehicle that will age well and continue to sell well.

Ehh, I pass, not a useful car for the seattle area. California enjoy it.

I liked SLP 2012 Escalade ESV-V edition with 700HP supercharged.
