1995 was the only year with the better interior.

Oh I soooo would.

am I violating forum rules when I say GWB makes Carter look effective, Ford look coordinated, and Nixon look open and honest?

GM EV1

laura was there to help

there are enough fanatics of the Park Ave, Aurora and Cutlass coupe/convertible for them to be aggressively saved. there are a number of clubs for each. the other W-body and H/G body cars don't seem to gather the same enthusiasm as the rest

another one that will be preserved simply due to rarity pontiac bonneville gxp

Riviera: Final Gen, 79-85 gen Aurora: First Gen Allante Reatta: already being preserved in great numbers, there is a Reatta club Toronado: pretty much all of them the last FWD Chrysler Imperial 80-85 Seville probably some oddball original Tauruses will be saved I wouldn't be surprised it you saw some well preserved Park Aves and Ninety Eights edit; also... Cutlass supreme coupe and convertible

Wait... does china have XM radio?

We'd be two years closer to E85 and 6-speed hybrid transmissions in all GM cars?

Oh look, a Buick I'd actually buy.....

sounds good.... now add a 6-speed and it'll be perfect

Is that your deductible these days?

yet the RWD sedans are on hold

a dodge omni police package + motorola radio can out run anything. you can't outrun motorola

good thing you didn't pledge Sigma Tau Delta fraternity.... though I hear members of other fraternities do still get in.

happy birthday you crazy cats

Could we have a 'view new posts' link in the low-fi version of the site? I often surf C&G from my treo when i'm sitting in an airport or someplace similarly boring.

Can you say "President Pelosi?"

inside the car, the 3.6 in my CTS is quiet but audible at idle. it does have a bit of a limp in it's idle when the climate control is on. outside at idle I can hear a clicking noise that i've been told is the fuel injectors running. under heavy throttle the engine sings an assertive song. settled into highway cruise the engine is smooth like butta. the 5.3 in the avalanche is actually smoother than the CTS at idle. outside you hear the soft 'glug glug' of the engine. on the highway the engine is fairly smooth and quiet but not as much as the CTS. under full throttle, the 5.3 sounds like a race car crossed with a T.I.E. fighter. there is this strange high pitched hum that comes on in the higher rpm bands that gives me the TIE fighter sound. normally I don't mind 4-speed autos, but the avalanche is one where this deficiency is substantially more noticable. there are times in that 40-55 mph range where the transmission wants to upshift for efficiency yet the engine doesn't have enough juice to keep the truck moving. this will cause the annoying 'lug and hunt' and lots of drive line shudder.

awww I miss trenton porkroll. any of you traveling from the NJ area to or through the Pittsburgh area your mission is to bring me a log of porkroll. I'll gladly pay you for the trouble.

eh, I'm only interested in more power if it lets me do what I do now while using less fuel. I can already get myself into a heap of trouble with the CTS and it's only at 255hp. I'd rather have the DI focus on getting me 34+ mpg and keeping the HP the same rather than getting 300hp at the same mpg.

that HAD to have been written by 68!!!!! :lol:

saw my first Liberty CRD the other day

or... save yourself the $5k-$7k and get a CXL V8 with only 2,000 miles.
