  1. There just isn't much news on it. It's carryover for 06, and it is a solid vehicle and has been a solid seller. What's there to talk about?

    All the 04+ Mary Kay Grand Prixes have pink paint.

    The Emode one is actually fairly accurate. I cross-checked it with the ones that were professionally done and they were all within the same range.

    Mensa is actually 132 and represents the top 2% of IQs. AFAIC that counts as genius.

    Please explain how he opposes the media. He seems to eat up any chance to say anything to an audience. He is part of the media. He loves media attention. So how does he oppose the media?
  6. Croc replied to HarleyEarl's topic in Cadillac
    I think it may. Cadillac has long had a relationship with Mary Kay, and that very subtle pink color you described is the same as those I've seen. I can't imagine the individual dealers could coordinate it all like that.

    He is very manipulative. And that is why he is a threat.
  9. BEP suck. They are annoying and pretentious. They have no cred, and are the joke of the music industry.
  10. In the right context, it makes sense. I've seen them and when I saw it here I knew exactly what it meant. Think about going to one of those state parks with the little booth as you go in to pay for a ticket. You're normally on a roadway that becomes a divided roadway into a parking lot with the booth separating the lanes. If you are trying to exit the lot (you're already in it), then such a sign makes perfect sense to avoid "going out the in."
  11. The Entrance Only makes sense...if you are exiting, say, a state park or maybe a parking lot with the tire damage spikes...that sign could be very relevant.
  12. You are really wearing thin.

    I love the new Passat. I love the design, and the interior looks amazing. I'm a fan. I know what the prices are, and I don't think they are out of line for what you get.
  14. I think Satty just has a sense of humor...something many on this board lack.
  15. Croc replied to Polish_Kris's topic in Toyota
    Why do you post on this site? I have yet to read any praise from you directed toward GM. Troll.
  16. Croc replied to Stoopsbuick's topic in Buick
    Is GM trying to kill Buick? "Super" as a trim level is absolutely retarded. Fire whoever approved that! "Reserved"? WTF is that supposed to connote? Laid-back and dull? Or "Exclusively for you"? Seriously, CX and CXL over those two any day of the year, including February 29th.
  17. Classleading: having a product that is in some way superior to a competitor's. Toyota Camry is not classleading, rather it does everything well. Passat has a class-leading interior. Mazda6 has class-leading driving dynamics and handling. The only thing that one could say is even remotely classleading for the G6 is its hardtop convertible, but apparently it might not even make it to market... The point is, in nearly every GM product offering, there is nothing classleading about the vehicle. Corvette, GMT900s, and maybe one or two other vehicles could count as classleading.
  18. Croc replied to ocnblu's topic in Chrysler
    I love the new VWs. So rich looking.
  19. The point I was trying to make and I'm sure you understood was that GM needs MORE classleading products.
  20. Croc replied to Stoopsbuick's topic in Buick
    Whatever it is, they won't name it "Super" (thanks for askin').
  21. Croc replied to Cory Wolfe's topic in The Lounge
    ^^what he said. seriously, from somewhere who's been there and done that...wallowing in self pity and being a drama king isn't going to do anything but make you feel worse. There are some things you can control and some things you cannot. I got this on an Ignatian retreat at St. Meinrad senior year of HS: Prayor for Starting Over Dear God, give me the courage to begin again- to overlook the difficulties, to overcome the obstacles and to stay open to the moment as best I can. Help me be patient enough to know it takes time to start over, and wise enough to ask for help from friends and family when I need it. As I look to the future, may I reflect on the past and remember the lessons it's taught me. And, God, may I always look to you for strength and guidance. I know you aren't that religious, but neither am I. Hopefully it'll help you out.
  22. Well GM has been a big fat crybaby. For the last decade and a half! Fact is GM does not have classleading, superior product in many segments. Corvette and the GMT900s are really the only truly classleading vehicles in the GM stable.
  23. Croc replied to carman21's topic in Heritage Marques
    No. Just no. Radical, but completely devoid of good business logic. You are not looking at the industry from a profit standpoint. GMC is pure profit, therefore don't f*** with it. Chevrolet is about to sell 3 million, therefore it doesn't need internal competition. Chevrolet competes with Toyota. Why should Saturn? I'll answer that: it shouldn't. Let Saturn specifically target upscale brands like Acura, VW, and Mercury, and if the product is good it will get conquest buyers from Toyota and Honda who are trading UP, not the same people in the market for a second or third Camcord. The problem is that you are focusing on competitng brands instead of market segments. Pontiac will likely be the part of the B-P-GMC trio that caters to the "youth vehicles" i.e. cheap, fun to drive, sporty, but not too well-appointed. If you want to think in terms of competing brands, then somewhere between Plymouth, Dodge, Scion and Mazda. Yes, I said Plymouth because those used Plymouths are still being sold. Buick is currently in a bit of an identity crisis. I don't think GM knows what it wants to do with it, and I see that as a problem. Personally, I think GM should take a two-pronged approach to the luxury market and sell Buicks and Cadillacs in the same dealerships, but different showrooms. The Buicks should target the Lexus/Jaguar luxury mentality of plushness and crypt-like quiet, while Cadillac should focus on BMW, Mercedes and Infiniti as far as offering more sporting cars with firmer suspensions. Cadillac takes more radical, flashy styling while Buick is more subdued and elegant. I think it could work if positioned right, though I doubt GM would be capable of that.
