BMW may sell engines and transmissions to GM and Fiat

WOW -
It snowed up in Alpine--east of San Diego-- last month, closed I-8, IIRC..
-
Yeah, they seemed to be about the size of a LeSabre or Bonneville, I think.. Intrepids, LHSes, Concordes and 300Ms were my favorite rental cars from '99-04. I used to get them several times a year at the Columbus and Pittsburgh airports..

In talking w/ my mom and brother, it sounds like they've had a lot of the snow/rain/freeze/snow cycle in Eastern Ohio this winter...sounds like it's been a rough one there. It was a great day here in the Denver today--60 and sunny.

All I can say is BUILD IT. BRING IT TO THE US. Call it GTO, call it G8 coupe, call it Zytor. Whatever. Pontiac needs this car NOW. -

Beautiful car...love the profile. By the way, speaking of the G8, there is a great article in the new issue of Automobile, a comparison test with the M5.. -

Those '07 and '08 wheels look pretty much the same..they changed the spokes slightly?

Speaking of crappy compacts, a coworker's wife's '01 Passat was in the shop today (needed a $2k cam shaft fix), and he had a Caliber rental...what a steaming pile... infinitely depressing gray concrete-hardness plastics inside, horrible blind spots (very thick A-pillar trim, huge C-pillar blind spots, tiny windows). Worst thing I've ridden in since an HHR last year.
-
I wonder if that market still exists, though...the last Riviera didn't sell that well..it seems like the whole 'personal luxury' coupe market has dissapeared.
-
Yeah, the names are similar so it's confusing... things got really confusing with Cutlass, which was used on a G body, A body, an N body, a GM-10/W body at different and overlapping times...
-
Speaking of bad '80s cars, I'm watching the movie 'Fun With Dick and Jane' now and when Jim Carrey and Tea Leoni had to downsize from their BMW 7-series they end up with a battered yellow Festiva...
-
Ah..the big '80s... IIRC, my '86 Mustang LX 2.3 had 88 hp... my '84 Escort diesel had 52 hp (but got over 50 mpg highway)...have no idea what my '88 Bronco II 2.9 was rated at. My '87 Mustang GT was rated at only 225hp but still feels quick because it's relatively light...
-
Definitely..it's been that way as I long as I can remember, IIRC my Jeep 4.0L is rated at 17/21, but I've never seen 21, let alone 19 hwy..
-
That's sad...I would have thought they would have done better than the Tahoe, etc...but they are almost as heavy but with smaller engines..
-
Huh? That's the same old pics of the white car that were shown here over a month ago...
-
A couple interesting sights in the commute today-- a late '90s gold Chrysler Sebring convertible w/ basic hubcaps and a totally lame bi-level, curvy 'Fast & The Furious' style boy racer rear wing, painted to match... a faded terra cotta pink (probably was bright red 38 years ago) 1970 Plymouth Duster...it was rust free but faded, and I'm pretty sure it was a '70 because it had the flat decklid without the strengthening crease that was added later.
