  1. Bailout Blues: GM can’t afford to throw out its Opel baby By: John LeBlanc The latest has Government Motors refusing to explain the “why” it can’t make a decision between what the German government wants (Canadian Magna’s Russian-backed bid) and what the automaker wants (Belgian private equity RHJ International’s bid that would give GM more control in a new Opel.) Now listen up. Your Canadian pride may be backing Magna (Way cool—Canada’s first modern automaker!!) But as a Canadian taxpayer now with a share of GM, you may want to start cheering for the RHJ guys. Here’s why. Full Story at Wheels.ca
  2. Cadillac Converj May Still Get Green Light With the GM corporate naysayers out of the picture (Troy Clarke, former GMNA President and Mark McNabb, former Cadillac, Hummer, Saab General Manager) Bob Lutz may get his way and get to see the Volt's more luxurious cousin appear at local Cadillac Dealers.

  3. The VW is pretty cool. Glad you could unpimp zee ahuto
  4. With GME running GM now, do you really think they would want to lose their E portion of the company?
  5. You know when ThePenske shows up its important.
  6. 1,000 people is A LOT of workers.
  7. patience whiteknight use the force
  8. with cruise
  9. turn signal switch
  10. more gauges
  11. gauges
  12. Um, its the Intrepid M thank you
  13. I remember going to K-Mart as a kid and begging for an icee and popcorn.
  14. The reason why the cutlass parts are cheaper: They sold A TON of them when they were new.
  15. What if they were losing a ton of money on the import program? It could have been an major accounting work around for Holden and GM to have the cars here in the first place. With the debts being pushed into Motors Liquidation, there was no need to be creative anymore. That could be one reason why lutz said YES! Then Fritz said NO! But, I know. . . bean counters. But I want GM to MAKE MONEY!!!
  16. California says you can have 5% on all windows behind the drivers doors. NO Tint on drivers windows or on windshield below a certain point.
  17. On some things, they certainly need to be drug out onto the carpet for. But, I'm not about to yell at them for making a business decision to NOT import a car from Australia. I own a pontiac, I love pontiac. I'm not going to blow it up and let it burn in effigy because GM got rid of pontiac.
  18. You forgot another option: They bought a new GM vehicle that was not Oldsmobile. I know Oldsmobile and Pontiac are important to a lot of people here, but at least you still have a choice as to which American car you can purchase. Almost nothing electronic is made here. Almost nothing clothing wise is made here. I'm glad I can still get a Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, or GMC that is still mostly made here, at least for now. Keep booing and buying used and then we may have only Toyota, Honda, Kia, and Hyundai to buy from. Because people that really don't care about what car they drive, that's what they drive. They are the majority of the customers too. So two options: 1. Build cars they want to buy. 2. Try to change their minds and prove to them they need to feel something when they drive their cars. Now, being a BUSINESS. . . which one is easier and will make you more money?
  19. GM to reimburse dealers until Cash for Clunkers rebates arrive The last thing GM wants its dealers to do is stop selling cars because they don't get the CARS money fast enough. So GM is stepping up to bridge the gap between the time a dealer submits a request for reimbursement and the government gets around to paying it. GM will begin providing cash advances equal to the amount of C4C rebates ($3,500-$4,500 per vehicle) to its dealers for every vehicle already sold under the program and any new transactions going forward.

  20. I agree, this car needs the OEM rims and the white-wall tires. I remember vivid memories of washing my mother's and grandmother's 85 seville and 84 eldorodo and rubbing the hell out of the whitewalls with comet cleanser!
  21. with that paint and chrome wheels, this is by far the best looking G6 i have EVER seen.
  22. The tail lights on this car are what the across the hood 3rd stop light of the STS in 1992 did for cadillac style. Sometimes, a little red on a car does it good.
  23. thats what it was on the STS, infact, i think GM recalled it.
