Speaking of the brands, does anyone have a quick rundown of CY 2006 GM US sales numbers, broken down by brand? I'm curious where Buick, Pontiac, Saab fall relative to Saturn, etc...
-
Saab is an interesting brand..one thing missing from their current line are the hatchbacks, which were one of their strongest points in the pre-GM era, IMHO. Saab could be potentially be marketed to the entry-premium market, against Acura, Volvo and the lower end Audis, i.e. brands where FWD and AWD are widely accepted.

I thought the Aurora (both generations) was quite competent and a very modern (and nicely styled) car for it's time... and the Intrigue was the nicest of the '90s W-bodies, IMHO..
-
It's funny..my parents' first new car was a '49 Ford... and my mom used to have an '89 T-Bird SC. She's 75 now, and has an '05 Lincoln Navigator, '96 Lincoln Town Car, and a '90 Mustang LX 5.0 convertible. I wonder what she would think of that T-Bird w/ the 49 Ford front/rear...
-
Nothing wrong with that...seems like a faithful reproduction of a 356....unlike the mutant T-Bird/49 Ford.

I guess the way I look at it is when I was in college and grad school, most of the time my car sat outside, exposed to the horrid Ohio/Michigan/Illinois winters, so I usually drove vehicles that were reliable, but not ones I cared about the appearance of. My Mustang GT stayed at my folk's place in a heated garage, and I pretty much only drove it when I visited home.. I didn't want to sit outside and deteriorate...

Lame stuff... not sure if such kits are as lame as the full body kit cars or not..
-
I'd make the rational choice--keep the Focus and work on paying it off..
-
For an Avis car it looks fine... it's nice to see a mainstream sedan w/ interior colors other than gray or tan.
-
Hmmm..overall, the description would fit a C3 Corvette w/ an aluminum big block... but, they were BOF (glassfibre body, perimeter frame). Still have no idea what 'liquid traction control' is...
-
'Liquid traction control' ? Que es esto? Never heard this term...even an exact phrase google didn't turn it up..

Bad drivers tend to own... Honda? Toyota? VW?
Robert Hall replied to Sixty8panther's topic in The Lounge
That sounds like what I saw Friday night...busy surface street--6 lanes, no median..two asstards in crew cab diesels (Ford Super Duty, GMC) were cutting in and out of traffic, speeding, drag racing each other away from the lights, etc..this went on for miles... and they had those stupid NRA and W04 stickers that seem mandatory on monster trucks... -

Yeah, but if you replace the distributor it will last, what a month, before something else breaks? My experience has been that older, high mileage cars that tend to break tend to break all the time... money pits.

I love how pronounced the wheel arches are...and love the wheels..it's a beautiful machine..can't wait to see one in person.
-
Wow..what a ruster... I've never seen one the '90s Rangers that bad..
-
Yes..that's probably the part I found the most disgusting...homeschooled by fundie Christians, young minds warped..

Toyota Electric Car May Only Have Half the Range of GM's

And the Internet and pants, as well.. -
I see a decent # of the regular HHRs around, but not a single panel yet...

There's something wierd about people having litters that big in the US....it's one thing for the poor and stupid in 3rd world countries to have huge litters, but it seems very strange in the modern world to have big litters, not to mention irresponsible (contribution to overpopulation, etc).
-
I don't see anything wrong with the G8's styling...it's certainly a huge improvement over the ugly Grand Prix...is that it is not gaudy enough to be badged a Pontiac?
