Obama Declares War on Capital
No other bankruptcy would go any other way, why should this be any different? It shouldn't be!! Obbie should have NEVER got involved with any of this. GM and Chrystler should've been halfway through normal bankruptcy already. But now he's got his hands in control of 2 major US companies, all to save the UAW.

REPORT: North American International Auto Show likely to move out of Detroit, see other people
So be it, I won't be there. Not going to pay $800 on 2 round trip tickets plus hotel, food and time off work just to see some cars that I can see on the dealers lots within a month or two of the show.

REPORT: North American International Auto Show likely to move out of Detroit, see other people
No. Absolutly not. Move it in the Detroit area but out of downtown would be fine. If the weather's an issue, have it in Sept. or early Oct. The next years models are out by then anyway. Moving it out of Detroit to LA would be like having a Napa Valley wine tasting event in France. We go there every year, didn't make the last one because I tweeked my ankle pretty hard the day before and couldn't really walk.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/04/24...c-close-plants/ Previously, GM said it would keep one or two Pontiac models as a niche brand. But the Obama administration is pressuring GM to go further in downsizing its money-losing operations. Election 2012 CANNOT get here fast enough!!!

I feel the same exact way. I'm still chompin at the bit whether or not I should sell the '68 camaro in it's unfinished current state for a new Camaro SS. You know any future plans of it will be canceled, and even the life of the current model may be cut short. At least we still have Ford.

Buick's Future May Be Chinese!
Unbelievable. Well, this is the end of it all. "Sell" off all other brands so they become competiters. I have never seen such incompantance as Obama and his administration has. He has done more damage to this country in a couple months time than anybody has ever done in the past 200+ years. I can't even imagine what's going to happen in the next year let alone another almost 4 years. It can't come fast enough. Sure glad Ford has improved as much as they have in the last few years, cause we'll all likley be driving them very soon.

REPORT: General Motors in "intense" bankruptcy preparations
I was forunate enough to have been there about 8 years ago. Was in the bay area for work and on the weekend I drove out to Yosemite for the day. 4 hours each way. Was November, color in the trees in the valley and snow at higher elevations. Had a '91 Syclone for about 4 yrs from '97 to '01. Had a lot of fun with it. It was truley a unique vehicle.

March 2009 Sales: General Motors
Malibu is doing good, I think it sold more than it did last month. No suprise to me the G6 did better than Cobalt, it's a lot more car (and nicer car) for right about the same money.

Children of a lesser Chevy
I had a '92 Grand Prix GTP manual bak in the mid 90's. It was a fun car (same plateform/motor/tranny as Z34) I still have a soft spot for the mid 90's IROC Z's
