  1. Chrysler has Fiat, Nissan has Renault. PSA + GM is not bad if GM wants to expand into that portion of Europe. Perhaps at some point, Opel becomes a sub brand of PSA and that is the way to shed Opel......
  2. first hand, one main reason kids aren't into cars. can't afford em, can't get credit. parents can't afford em either. including insurance. there is nothing you can do with price or content on a car if the buyers have a snowball's chance in hell of producing the funds.
  3. diggin the t bar shifter and chiclets dash. gotta admit i love that style grand prix though.. just not this one.
  4. it seems to revert back to the vanilla / odd / ancient Japan sort of look Nissan had prior to the 03 or whatever Altima......actually it's not offensive or bad even and the change of pace from their worn out Altima look of the past decade is nice. But it certainly doesn't stand out....... Chevy's new Malibu is much more distinctive. As long as Nissan can keep pimping them on 200 dollar leases they will be ok. Ford's new Fusion is nicer but not stunning either.
  5. yeah, it has sold well considering the size of the car.
  6. i've felt for a very long time, like since the 9-3 came out in 04 that Saab should have been positioned up against VW...more acurately between say VW and Acura at the time so that the 9-3 was a Passat competitor. or at least something that a VW shopper could move up to without much more dough. For Saab to maybe come back the same way....... Saab had so much potential......
  7. CB radio ?
  8. we got 2700 for a late 90's accord with 235000 on it recently. this appears to be a peach. there would have been someone who would have paid a lot more than 2500 for that. i would say you got a nice deal.
  9. good mpg for a CUV/SUV with upright lines. and beats 15 mpg of say, a GC.....
  10. it's pretty expensive to open up an entire separate channel.....
  11. i guess if it keeps the price on the Cayman's palatable....
  12. not liking it really. something about it seems too foreign yet. not against an idea of one, just the design is not clicking here.....
  13. why not just restart the factory in Trollhatten? there ya go! Cimmaron rulz!!!!
  14. excellent analysis.
  15. i am not opposed to E85. I am opposed to mandatory ethanol like my state. 10% less mpg, gums up my car, so basically i pay an extra 10% for gas that ruins my car and goes right to ag subsidies. i call it the ethanol tax. what i do like, E85 capability, let's mandate that. then we can CHOOSE. if i want to, i can put E85 in my car. But my gas, i want to be 100% non ethanol.
  16. sedan is ok, in the rear its a bit clumsy, the hatch looks terrible, this at least looks relaxed and dare i say a bit crossover to it......like a subaru wagon......
  17. or yeah, diesel manual.....50 mpg wagon? sweet.....
  18. now THIS i would buy over a hatchback. An Eco manual wagon would be very nice......... especially if the 1.4 gets a little more power......
  19. No..it's practical. I work in an office 18 miles from home. Going by bus or light rail would double my commute time and have several other inconvenient aspects. in your car, you don't have to sit next to loud and sweaty. you have your own audio. You have a place for your beverage, and if you need to swing out of the way on a whim and go pick up your meds at the pharmacy, you can do that. and you don't have to stop every 5 minutes and pick up a bunch of others. my favoritie scenario is this. my kid gets sick at 2 a.m. i need immediately to get them to urgent care or a pharmacy or both. It's freezing out and snowing and minus a bunch wind chill. I don't think i'll be taking my kid on a bus........partially because it won't be running at that time and place.
  20. i sure wish i could have sexted pictures of my p3nis to a girl i was chasing, or been able to take pictures of naked conquests and send them around to friends when i was younger. you know, the important, meaningful, and culturally valuable things you can do with a cell phone. that, and play games. Zomg
  21. didn't go far enough, inside or out. in fact, half assed is a good term for it. they butched the grille, but the rest of the vehicle is still soft and curvy. Where is the brash angularity of the Terrain? Inside it doesn't appear to have an improvement in design or quality. The radio and CC is different. It's like, a lot has changed but the net effect is not much. Why does it still look dated and cheap? Why does the Terrain interior look better, more interesting, and newer?
