I have no idea who you are speaking about. -

You might want to hurry up and eat at Don Pablos, they recently filed Chapter 11. Next time I'm in the Charlotte area, we should have dinner, my treat. We can talk about both of us being Southern Boys, I know you wouldn't want to talk about GM. -
I agree, and it won't look anything like the current Lambdas.

I will say this one more time, the Alpha platform has been engineered to take an 8, 6, and 4 cylinder engine. The question then becomes will GM put the 8 in it?

Congrats, the last Bonneville I owned was a new 1999 SSEI on the old H body. It was a great car at the time, I hope you enjoy yours.

If GM decides to kill/emasculate Pontiac...
Oracle of Delphi replied to Camino LS6's topic in Heritage Marques
Every Company has internal politics, GM is no exception. Have you noticed that there is no Zeta in the Opel lineup, other than in the UK, and that was only because they drive on the same side of the road as OZ, so that was a no brainer. On the European continent, Zeta is verboten (forbidden), except for winter testing in Sweden, and for a few selected test. Pontiac reminds me of John McCain, he and Pontiac can't seem to make up their mind as to what they want to be. Pontiac used to be all RWD, then they went some RWD and FWD, then they went FWD, then they became FWD and RWD again, moving to an all RWD lineup, hence the tie up with Holden. Well oops, that looks like a mistake now, with the economy, gas prices, CAFE, impending CO2 regs and now they need to go back to FWD, Opel products are for Saturn alone in North America, that was always the plan and that's what works for Opel too. So Pontiac's only choice will be to offer GMDAT rebadged products, that's why you see the G3 coming to Pontiac. Like a poor marksman, Pontiac keeps missing it's target. Pontiac is fast becoming a Chevy rebadge, perhaps it's time to retire the old girl and move Saturn/Opel into the BPG sales channel. No one was more of a Pontiac fan than I was, but they sold their soul with the Holden tie up and wanting to go all RWD, I would have been willing to work to save Pontiac, had they 1.) Not hooked up with Holden and 2.) not gone all RWD and left a few models FWD, so people like me that loved Pontiac would still have choices to buy that brand. Now the shoe is on the other foot, isn't it? Pontiac wants to have a RWD/FWD lineup again, I say, too little too late and I whisper that message into the ears of anyone in GME that will listen. -

Of course Saturn gets GME products, that has been the plan for a few years now, there wasn't, and never will be a plan to share those products with Pontiac. They made their bed with Holden, now they have to sleep in it. Guess they backed the wrong horse. -

Oracle of Delphi replied to Camino LS6's topic in Heritage Marques
Yes I would object, along with all of GME. I don't know how I can stress to you any more than I already have, that Pontiac will NEVER be given any GME products, N E V E R! -

Sure, the Chevrolet Impala and Buick LaCrosse are not the most exciting models in GM's lineup, but the Oshawa, Ontario plant that's been cranking out well-assembled W-platform vehicles for years has won a rare honor from J.D. Power and Associates. Power's Founder's Award is reserved for people or corporations that J.D and friends feel are uncommonly dedicated to continual improvement for customers. Oshawa has racked up plenty of Gold and Silver plant awards, and J.D. Power's senior VP for US automotive practice, Gary Dilts, was on hand to present the award to plant manager Dan Hermer and Chris Buckley, president of CAW local 222. It's a scarce bit of positive news about a domestic automaker, and the fact that the plant has demonstrated such a drive to turn out high quality products bodes well for the Camaro, which is set to start rolling out of the Oshawa complex soon. J.D. Power and Associates Reports: The General Motors Oshawa Assembly Plant Receives the Prestigious J.D. Power and Associates 'Founder's Award' for Vehicle Assembly Plant Quality Excellence OSHAWA, Ontario, Sept. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- The prestigious J.D. Power and Associates Founder's Award was presented to the General Motors Oshawa Car Assembly Plant and members of CAW Local 222 for its long-standing commitment to producing high-quality vehicles. Gary Dilts, senior vice president of the U.S. automotive practice at J.D. Power and Associates, presented Dan Hermer, Oshawa Car Assembly Plant manager and Chris Buckley, Local 222 President, with the award on behalf of J.D. Power and Associates. The award was presented today at an award ceremony held at the General Motors Oshawa Car Plant/Stamping Facility in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. "In recognition of its long history of producing vehicles of excellent quality, J.D. Power and Associates is pleased to present GM's Oshawa Assembly Plant with a Founder's Award," said Dilts. "During the past seven years, the General Motors Oshawa Plant has received four Gold and two Silver Awards for plant quality in North America in the annual J.D. Power and Associates Initial Quality Study. This is far more awards than any other plant has received in the region over this period, and is a testament to the hard work of all GM employees at the facility as well as to GM management and suppliers." The Founder's Award is a discretionary award presented at various times by J.D. Power and Associates to recognize individuals or companies that demonstrate dedication, commitment and sustained improvement in serving customers. In the 40-year history of J.D. Power and Associates, only 22 companies or individuals have previously received the award. The Oshawa Car Assembly Plant is one of the largest automotive production sites in the world, responsible for the production of various General Motors models during the past 55 years. The plant has received multiple J.D. Power and Associates Initial Quality Study awards including: Gold Plant awards in 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2006; as well as Silver Plant awards in 2005 and 2007. In addition, the plant has produced several vehicle models that have received Initial Quality Study awards, including the Pontiac Grand Prix, the Buick Century and the Chevrolet Lumina. The facility has more than 8 million square feet of factory floor and more than 4,800 employees. The plant currently produces the Chevrolet Impala and Buick LaCrosse (known as the Buick Allure in the Canadian market). Oshawa Car Assembly will begin production of the new Chevrolet Camaro in late 2008 on its new Flex Line. Link: http://www.autoblog.com/2008/09/28/gm-plan...founders-award/
