Or better yet, just rename the emoticon since this is a car forum and Scions are likely to be mentioned from time to time. Seriously, this is pretty stupid. Why doesn't this emoticon code require colons?

XD ^^This needs to be fixed. Seriously??

Ah, got it.

Oh god yes...

Agreed.

Well it seems the Sonic compares well...at least on paper.

Oops.

I like the Rio...mostly. I don't get the black plastic on the front and rear--bizarre detail that ruins an otherwise good design for me. This isn't 2001, lower cladding shouldn't be an issue anymore.

I don't doubt you're getting it legitimately; however, I think I need to avoid it unless we're talking a real last resort or something.

This just looks too "Korean" for my tastes. If that's your thing, cool, but I like the KIA better.

Huh. Sucks they didn't check to make sure it worked before scheduling you to come in.

LOL! Nope. I prefer Morphine.

Seriously? This isn't the lounge. Let's clean these posts up and get back to talking about the car. Save the cattiness and language for PM and non-publicly visible forums.

I really like how it has available navigation for those who want to buy it. I think EVERY car should offer built-in navigation (with a screen, on-star turn-by-turn does not count) for those who want to pay for it.

Irrelevant. They can't build enough of them for that to matter. It's just one excuse after another ever since 1987. What, you're gonna buy 50,000 of them yourself? Quite frankly, if GM were to do a modern El Camino, it should have a backseat and midgate. Elkies always had a bit of a flying buttress look to them, so this could maintain the general look but without the compromise. You know, make it a vehicle someone might have some options with. Bachelors who work in landscaping or construction just aren't this huge untapped market. You miss the point. GM couldn't build 50,000 of them no matter the demand - they have capacity for about 10% of that at best. As for your Camino recipe, that wouldn't be an El Camino at all. I do agree that it would be nice to have the flying buttress (and longer coupe-style doors) but a backseat is out of the question. No, this should come here just as it is. The small numbers that they could build make it even more desireable in my book. WHY would anyone need longer coupe-style doors?? If there's no backseat, why opt for unnecessarily long doors that do nothing except hinder ingress/egress in parking lots?? Makes no sense.

Please. I want the UTE to come here too, but let's be honest about the actual size of the market for such a vehicle.

What's the Sonic's fuel economy numbers, especially since Cruze can hit 40+?? If this is a sub-compact, yet matches mpg of a large compact (Cruze)?

Okay...but what does that have to do with questioning the use of incandescents on an ECO model? I'm not even going into the "introducing unnecessary assembly complexity" yet...

I don't get it. I'm aware of what the outgoing Malibu looks like?

Why no LEDs? They look a lot less tacky, but it just doesn't make any sense to me in 2011 that a car doesn't have LED tails. On an ECO model, no less.

Regal, but only based on Malibu photos. Regal looks more upmarket from a stylistic standpoint, but its trunk isn't great. I don't know how the Malibu interior comes off in-person, nor do I know how the trunk is. We shall see, but for now, slight nod to the Regal.

GM should stick to one trademark and use it throughout all of its brands. MyLink is my preference because it's short, concise and emphasizes personalization.
