That's a good question... with the new capacity they could stick them in the T900 pickups.
-
I guess in order to update a retro design you have to look at a different retro design. The HHR is supposed to look like a '49 Suburban, so why not make the NG HHR like the '55 or so Suburban? They seem different enough to me... (I don't know what the PT is inspired by, but they could do something similar).
-
I like your ideas, but I'd give the H3 a H3T as well and make the H8 the H2T.
-
I've yet to see one on the road, and have only seen a couple Solstii on the road.
-
Who would buy the Bengal with the Solstice in the same showroom for thousands less? The times are a-changing, and GM isn't rebadging every vehicle anymore, sorry. The money would be better spent on a Velite based on the next Lucerne because it would actually offer something the Solstice doesn't: a backseat, and could also offer a V8 and would be significantly bigger. The Aura is the sedan, the Sky is the Kappa, I think you have them mixed up.

I'm sure you can get wood trim without NAV. There are plenty of CTS's that have just about everything buy NAV... there are three on our lot right now that are over $40k but don't have NAV.
-
Aren't they only going to sell like 30k anyways? I think they'll be able to sell 30k pretty easily... that's less than 3k per month.
-
The NAV is definetly pop-up. You can see the cutout for the part that pops-up.
-
0% for 72 months is far too long. By that time everyone will be bored of their car and be upside-down on their loan if they trade it in before they pay it off. Employee pricing would have been a better idea, at least on select vehicles.
-
Zeta is basically a cheapened Simga, meaning the use of steel and other less-costly (and heavier) materials rather than aluminum and other more-costly and lighter materials. A base CTS is like $30k, that $25972 is probably if you get it at the dealer's cost.
-
Yep, that's my Goat!
-
I normally don't like multi-spokes, but for some reason they work well here. They remind me of what's on the STS-V and XLR-V somewhat, though I'd pick the CTS-V rims over these. For some reason I don't think 5-spokes go that well with the A&S theme.
-
Nope, no swirl marks We take the cars into the service area and there's an area there about 3 cars wide in which we clean them, so they're never in the sunlight when we wax them.
-
LOL. Rolls-Royce is merely a "luxury brand"? I think the reason that Cadillac, Lexus, and others don't do well in Europe is because they're "imports" there.
-
They're bigger than the 360s by about ten inches but about shorter than the EXT by about 6 inches. The better than Nox/Torrent SUV will probably be the NG of the Nox/GMC.
-
Looks great!
-
The Alero is a pretty good college car I think. V6 or I4 works. Around town I got 18-19 MPG usually but I have a lead foot so you could get 22-23 if you wanted to I'm sure. A Ford Focus wouldn't be bad either (good driving), as long as you can find one without many problems.
-
Agreed on both accounts. The wood (I'm guessing it's not real) has a weird graining, I'm not sure that I've ever seen graining like that on wood before. It's like there are little random splotches of black on the reddish-brown wood here and there. And I didn't notice the cutline, but it will definetly show up on anything but dark blue and black.
-
At a Chevy-Cadillac dealership in central IL. I detail the new cars, fill them up with gas, and make sure the ones on the lot aren't getting too dirty, etc.
-
A convertible version? Basically a range-topping spritual successor to the SSR. The engineering work would already be done for the most part, so it wouldn't be as expensive to include it, and I think a few SSR owners might trade theirs in. What does everyone think? After driving that SSR today I now want one for some reason (probably because I felt so different driving it - it's like nothing else I've ever driven), but anyways, what does everyone think?
-
That's pretty damn cool! How much is it (or is it even for sale)?
-
That's really good pricing. So much for that Miata hardtop stealing the Kappas' thunder.
-
Camino: Yep, I'm enjoying my job for the most part. Reg: Sorry, it was an auto. No one buys manuals around here for some reason. Not even many Corvettes have manuals.
-
I guess it's a decent price, but the Aveo is still $2k cheaper and not as ugly.
