Good Lord! When did Saturn become a luxury brand? The new pair of vehicles look fantastic! Saturn sure has grown up into something beautiful!

This is making me a little nervous for our old friend Camaro. Also, and even more off topic, I saw my first G6 GT coupe the other day in black. It was way ahead of me on the freeway and I thought I was looking at some kind of tricked out Infiniti G35 coupe or something. I was blown away when I realized it was a Pontiac. Wow! Really amazing looking! I'm reasonably satisfied with the Aura pic. Can't wait to see more. Like others have said, I'm praying that the RL version will look just like the Vectra...

Thing looks like an Isuzu Amigo. And no, that's not a compliment.

Do you have a link for this article? I'd like to share it with some friends. Thanks!

Thank you. Now I don't have to type this. Also, Chrysler paid nearly $20M for it's placements in The Island. (cool movie. too bad for chrysler, the "must-have" vehicle in the film was a Caddy, not a dodge....)

I remembered this car as a lot uglier than it is. Has it been tweaked since the original pcitures were released? I really like the back end! I wish I could have the CTS front end and the BTS reaar. Perfect....

Exactly, just as fuel cell vehicles exist today, just in very limited use.

The interenet was a 'pipe dream' 25 years ago. That doesn't change the fact that the net and fuel cell technology has/will change the world.

I agree. These hybrids seem like a pretty pathetic bandaids for the real problem. Fuel cell technology should really change the world. I hope GM gets the big score with this technology.

And how does Mercedes factor into this logic?

Wow, Caddy and Buick giving both Toyota and Honda the smackdown. Very nice!!

Sorry If already posted.... Kerkorian Calls for Drastic GM Overhaul The Daily Auto Insider Thursday, January 12, 2006 January 2006 Jerome York, investor Kirk Kerkorian's top lieutenant, urged General Motors to speed up and expand its restructuring, The Wall Street Journal reported. York, an adviser to Kerkorian's Tracinda Corp., which owns 7.8% of GM, said GM should immediately do the following: Cut its $2 a share annual dividend in half to save $566 million a year; cut pay significantly for top executives and directors; drop salaries for lower-level employees; trim GM's lineup of more than 80 U.S. models; and get rid of the Saab and Hummer brands to focus on core, high-volume brands. "This situation calls for the company's going into crisis mode, adopting a degree of urgency that recognizes if things don't break right, the unthinkable could happen," York said.

Covettes and Camaros have shared engines throughout most of Camaro's production. Of course most recently the LS1 and the LT1. Besides the SSR, GTO and CTS-V already have this engine too, why not Camaro? I'm very happy to see it being said that it will be a 6.0L V8 with 400 horsepower (LS2 probably) and not some concept engine. It just means that it is all that much more feasable and quick to production. Now for the SS version.... LS7?????
