Speaking of poo and poo fans, check out The Poop Report website..this article about The Mad $h!ter is hilarious.. At Sea With the Mad $h!ter

fecalphilia, I think.

Yes..it would be nice to see GM offer diesels in the Astra, Aura, Cobalt, Malibu, etc... I think that would be a great way of raising their CAFE ratings (along with cutting back on the 5000-6000 bloat beasts).
-
GM's always behind the curve, though...remember, they still build some cars with pushrod V6s and 4spd automatics, as if it were 1994 or so...
-
My friends that have them say they get around 45mpg in typical mixed use (city, suburbia, freeway). The problem is those compact European diesels aren't here. The Prius is.
-
I see the V6 has 256 hp. This is the regular 3.6 and not the DI, I assume?
-
That's one I don't remember..I remember the Corsica sedan, but not the hatchback. I also remember the Canadian Pontiac Tempest version of the Corsica, saw a couple of those in Florida years ago...

There's a few other obscure small displacement V8s I was barely aware of--the Chevy 262 of '75-76 and 267 of '79-82, Pontiac's 265 in '80-81, and Olds' 260 of '75-82.

Well, considering how many politicians are paid off by big oil, I'm sure there is not much effort made at stopping them..
-
Well, it was a blink and you miss it thing...apparently only in the Caprice from '94-96....in '94-96 the Impala SS got the attention, the Caprice faded away..

Probably something transient..they may have been updating their website tonight..

Yes, basically a Japanese Buick. ES is to Camry as La Crosse is to Impala.. -
Looking forward to seeing it myself at the end of the month at the Denver Auto Show..
-
I'd love to see GM get with the program and offer a CTS diesel, Camaro diesel, etc. here...

Math. The difference is probably the 'Comfort & Sound Package' vs. the 'Sport Package' + v8..

Interesting...I wonder if the DNS entry for that site has changed..I tried going to CZ28.com w/ firefox and get this error: Server not found Firefox can't find the server at www.carch-default.partner. I tried with IE and got the 'server not available' error dialogs, I tried a second time, and it loads fine now..

I seem to recall reading somewhere that one year, (in the '50s or '60s) the largest Buick was actually longer than the longest regular (non-limo) Caddy... -
BMW may sell engines and transmissions to GM and Fiat

Cadillac has one halo vehicle now..the XLR. -
I vaguely remember reading about that engine years ago..looks like it was made '94-96 and only used in the Caprice..
-
Me too...though I like the terms 'secular humanist' and 'functional realist' also.. As far as cars, I consider myself brand-agnostic...I like cars in general...an all-around car enthusiast, not particularly fixated on one brand or another...

GM has been it's own worst enemy for a long time...too many of the apologists blame Toyota, etc for GM's problems...GM is the biggest source of GM's problems, IMHO... -

If they could improve the aerodynamics and cut the weight for the next generation, (the Escalade is absurdly obese) that would help the fuel economy also..
