The Impala is an attractively styled vehicle that indeed is not cutting edge at all. It is what it is...a stopgap. Does that mean it doesn't have its merits? No not at all. I still think the Accord is champs in the segment. The new Camry is probably better than the Impala overall...but suffers from plenty of flaws like "questionable" styling...still underpowered base engine and ridiculously small trunk for the segment.

At least the japanese companies finally decided to include ALL their plants.

I'm not quite sure who would pay 16.5K for a base civic (DX with auto and freight)...its rather mind boggling. Then again its got the appropriate hood ornament so its all good.
-
They should pay you to live with that awful interior.
-
The G6 has more room with the top up that the Solara while being a smaller vehicle overall. Pontiac.com lists 2.2 cu ft with the top down while I could not find information for the Solara. Maybe I'm the minority but trunk space with the top down is not that big of a concern to me. You won't find any convertibles that you can comfortably load 4 people and 4 bags of luggage in with the top down so its really rather pointless.

Toyota's recent launches haven't exactly been stellar.
-
I don't think you'll see a significant drop in SUV sales until gas prices reach 5 bucks and a gallon and stay there.
-
It matters somewhat...I could give a damn about materials since I uh...never touch them. As long as the design is nice and build quality is good with no rattles then thats fine with me.
-
Has to be the G6 vert...or at least the G6. I'd love a GTP vert with 2 tone leather.
-
Uh since when are convertibles not niche cars?
-
Cobalt. Excellent compromise between power/efficiency Mazda3 would be a good choice but more expensive and the powertrains aren't the best.
-
Especially with the ever increasing complexity in new cars.

My mom has one...acceleration is fine until about 35 MPH then after that it has no power...anywhere.

This article may be the most intelligent one to come out of CR...ever.

That's pretty funny. At least to the civic's credit it did get good gas mileage but I can't argue with most of his other points.

Most of the above plus Kiera Knightly..... -
All the LX cars are fat and ungainly
-
The interior is a big improvement...although I still don't like it. Requiring premium fuel is a big no-no though and Nissan should know it.

I've seen 3 on the streets. The first one I saw was a rental 2 months ago in Orlando.
-
BTW, the Aveo is getting replaced in a couple months...so that isn't exactly an accomplishment.
-
It's the echo V 2.0 Isn't this the same douchebag that wrote that horrible escalade writeup?

and slowly they are conditioning everyone to think that $2.50 a gallon is cheap...when it was at $2.00 a gallon 6 months ago.
-
So whats the take rate on V6/sticks these days...less than 5%? The vast majority of the family sedan market simply does not want a stick in their car. It probably should have a 4 cyl/stick combo for those on a budget...but apparently Saturn is aiming for a more upscale crowd and only offering 2 V6's
-
The 2007 G6 is getting more powerful V6's...I think the 3.5L is up to 225 hp now.
