April 23, 200619 yr Just one--my Silverado, with the GM Card. My previous GM vehicles were either bought by my dad (GMC) or used (Oldsmobile).
April 23, 200619 yr Brand new, I've bought 2: 1997 Chevrolet malibu 2000 Chevrolet monte carlo LS Both are LONG gone .

April 23, 200619 yr Brand new? None. Used? Bought 2, owned 3 (1 hand-me-down) Chevy Corsica Buick Regal Saturn SC1
April 23, 200619 yr I didn't read the first post so I put how many new GM cars my family (parents) has purchased (2) but even that is wrong because I was counting my Grand Prix, which was used when I bought it. Oops... From my memory, we have had a 1986 S-10 Blazer, 1996 Blazer, 2000 Blazer and 1997 (or maybe 2000?) Grand Prix.

No worries, I have edited to poll to reflect the change in your vote from 2 to 0.
April 23, 200619 yr Just 1. 1992 Regal 3800 coupe Had 2 Cutlass Supremes as hand-me downs. Plan to buy new with GM Card proceeds fairly(sigh) soon Edited April 23, 200619 yr by trinacriabob
April 23, 200619 yr 0, but I'm only 21. I would rather save for a few years and buy a car cash than to have to pay 400+ per month. I may buy a Sky redline in a few years, depending on how much I am able to save by then. Edited April 23, 200619 yr by CaddyXLR-V
April 23, 200619 yr Well... I misread the poll... and voted 1, but didn't see "new", so my GA doesn't count. Anyways, 0, I guess. Looks like it might be that way for a long long long long long long long long long long time. First of all, because used cars are more affordable... And second, because I have more possible choices... And finally, because GM doesn't quite make my kind of car yet... an affordable, RWD, 4cyl powered, manual trannied compact coupe.

April 23, 200619 yr an affordable, RWD, 4cyl powered, manual trannied compact coupe. I wish GM would make that car, and sell it for around $18,000. I wouldn't mind a 3.6L version at around 22-23k either.
April 23, 200619 yr ... an affordable, RWD, 4cyl powered, manual trannied compact coupe. There's always a USED Vega.
April 23, 200619 yr None, I can't afford to buy new now...but in the near future I plan on buying a new GM or Ford product, depending on what's out at the time (probably 2008/09).
April 23, 200619 yr or Ford product, depending on what's out at the time (probably 2008/09). Mustang, Mustang...what are we going to do with you....a F O R D ???
April 23, 200619 yr almost bought a new 06 suburban this last time around but realized i really couldn't afford it. Maybe the next car will be.
April 24, 200619 yr Well, I own 2 GM's, but the Cobalt is the only one that I bought new. The Camaro was a year old (and still under warranty!)
April 24, 200619 yr 1996 Saturn SL2 (returned 3 months after ownership as it was junk) 2002 Alero GL2 (loved it, but Grandmother needed a car) 2005 Cobalt LS (just reached 31,000 miles in less than 8 months)
April 24, 200619 yr GM Bought new 5 - 1 non GM 63 Ford Galaxie 500XL convertible 66 Olds Cutlass Supreme convertible 70 Olds Cutlass Supreme convertible 98 Vette Roadster (Dealer titled with 1500 miles) 03 CTS 04 Trailblazer
April 24, 200619 yr I voted 7 (including the upcoming SKY purchase <--- can be any day now!!!), but out of the 7 I purchased 4 in my name and the other 3 were purchased in my wife's name. So I still consider that 7 new GM cars (and I'm only 31!). 5 out of the 7 are leased vehicles, so that might clear up why so many cars in 7 years. Here they are in order: 1) 1999 Pontiac Grand Am GT1 Sedan (mine) 2) 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GT Sedan (wife) 3) 2001 GMC Sonoma "Highrider" (ZR2) Ext. Cab 4wd (mine) 4) 2003 Buick Rendezvous CX (wife) 5) 2004 Chevy Malibu LT Sedan (mine) 6) 2005 GMC Envoy SLT 4wd (wife) 7) 2007 Saturn SKY roadster (mine, mine, all mine!) I'm working on getting rid of the Malibu and get back into leasing. Yes, it will be another GM vehicle #8! Add to that two used GM vehicles (1978 Camaro LT and 1992 Cavalier Z24 and my overall total is 9). Ummm ummm, I love me some of that Koolaid Edited April 24, 200619 yr by GMTruckGuy74
April 24, 200619 yr I'm gonna follow TruckGuy's lead, and include the purchases that I made, but my wife drives. Mine: '94 Cutlass Supreme SL '01 Bonneville SSEi '04 Grand Prix GTP Comp G '06 Grand Prix GXP Hers: '99 Lumina LTZ '03 Rendezvous CXL '06 Rendezvous CXL Had kind of a gap there for a while, since I was driving company cars from '97 to '01. Also, looking at the list, if I include my '88 Cutlass Supreme (which was used at the time), I have been driving a W-car since 1991 with the exception of the couple years I had the Bonneville.
April 25, 200619 yr Hmm .. new? Only 3 for me. 2000 S-10 4.3 (mine) 2003 Cavalier (wife's) 2004 Cavalier (mine) The cavs should be paid off soon...then, I hopefully another one...
April 25, 200619 yr Zero. Only new car we've ever owned, we being my wife and I, is our 06 Escape. Though when I go to replace my 01 Cavalier, it likely won't be a GM, since I get a sweet discount on Fords through CompUSA. CompUSA is a fleet partner with Ford, in case you're wondering. I get Fords, Lincolns, Mercury's, and Mazda's at factory invoice. Volvos, Jags, and Land Rovers and a few percentages above factory invoice. We got our 06 Escape XLT for $24k, it stickered for $27.

April 25, 200619 yr Which ford? Fusion? Focus? Likely a Mazda 3 5-door, maybe Mazdaspeed 3 if the price is no more than $24k.
