  1. not so easy to just make a cute little start up and start building something that only mega companies have been able to sustain. i find it hilarious and amusing.
  2. because the 09 corolla is light years ahead of this thing ?
  3. gotta admit, i do really like it. I just won't get inside it. nice and PURE in white.
  4. mpls auto show is in about 8 weeks i think. G8 better be there.
  5. Global warming = temp rise (TR) global dimming = temp drop (TD) TR - TD = x value of x 0 = I don't care what's next? global p1ssing?
  6. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/11/us/11con...mp;partner=IWON
  7. and the earth WAS flat at one time, too http://www.globalissues.org/EnvIssues/Glob...isglobaldimming something else for the elites to scare the crap out of you to add on to the global warming thing. note, cars are likely to blame for this also.
  8. i get by fine with two tatas at my disposal. i'll pocket the difference and spend it on alcohol to enhance the mood.
  9. same here. i really think, for the first time in a long time, that this is the type of car that is perfect for me, at least in terms of driving enjoyment.
  10. Saturn Astra XR 3 door, Edmunds full test (new) looks hot in black, by the way. ouch! another 50 hp and i might be interested.
  11. acura has no real history. no history in this country. no big racing history. no cultural significance. it has created nothing to the growth of our country or economy. the NSX was a great image car but they gave up on it and never renewed it. they lost model identity when they renamed cars like legend and vigor and integra into "TL" and "TSX" and "RSX". they lost a lot of faithful when they abandoned coupes. They blatantly rebadge euro accords into TL's and Civics into "EL's". But perhaps the biggest problem they have is that the faithful Honda bunch sticks with Honda because its frugal efficient soulless appliance character is so strong, that it counteracts the exact nature of luxury. When you get to the point where you can afford true luxury, all of a sudden consumer reports and gas mileage and perfect reliability is not the main reason why you pick a car. Emotion, soul, frivolity, excess....all things that go against the notion of a 'Honda' to the very core. Or worse yet, you scold yourself for wanting an RL, when you could get the exact same size car for 1/3 the price. And gosh, you don't NEED more than an Accord if you love hondas. honda is into efficient engineering. that is the opposite of EXCESS. well, hold on, we got "vtec" and "SHAWD". woo hoo. build a brand on that.
  12. carbiz can expand on this.....
  13. http://wardsauto.com/ar/acura_consumer_reports/ boo fricking hoo...... must explain the crappy sales!!!!!!!!! that and no v8! Go Hyundai!!!!!!!!!
  14. i totally love TATA's! seriously, the design is not bad, even if it looks like a Prius that went through the dryer. I imagine it would totally blow to have to drive one of these.
  15. yup. exactly. but no one mentions that. How many GM cars are fleeted? is always the thing that is brought up. Well, how many camlees are leased and returned? I have been indignant that with the huge cahmlee sales increases the past 3-4 years, all those leases will FLOOD the open market and BAM! there goes that wonderful resale. You CANNOT tell me that with hundreds of thousands of hahmrees hitting auctions that the value of them won't be that much different than sonatas.
  16. donate the prix. your tax writeoff will exceed 200 bucks, no? GM card is above and beyond your best deal with all other rebates etc. another reason to like GM. In 04, we bought our aztek. 26,500 was sticker. 18 grand was the price we got and then the 2 grand GM card brought it down to 16k, new. So its above and beyond your best deal.
  17. saab and saturn need to take GM card
  18. the design is pretty superb if you ask me
  19. you see some of the comments on the fast lane blogs? man, one dude made some comment about 'are you going to send those vehicles to the crusher too' or something. People like that need to GFT. And to believe everything you see in a 'movie'? (WKTEC) Brian Esser, you are a BIG TIME LOSER. GFY.
  20. NOs scrubbing?
  21. yeah, i got a lumbering pig too. we like it for what we ask of it though
  22. ok, but the cobalt is 1/3 the price and probably 1/6 the cost to maintain. just sayin....... remember also that wll, at least here, diesel is .60 more/ga. I love diesel, i just think BMW will stick it to people with the cost.
  23. after i typed that i finally saw the provoq profile. its so odd, but the provoq looks great from the side, but the front quarter vue is disappointing. The saab is more consistent. I just wish it had the pop of the little coupe concept. saab needs to grow some styling balls.
  24. Here's my point. How many wranglers tear apart?
