... wireless mouse? http://fourdoormedia.com/Merchant5/merchan...tegory_Code=001 Apparently they're officially licensed. Oh, and they have branded USB keys too.

Flextreme?

For some strange reason the top of the car screams Dodge to me... The rear roofline looks very musclecar-ish. Front kinda reminds me of the Koenigsegg.

Love that idea, except I don't see it happening, at least until the Volt reaches its economies of scale.

I'm just hypothesizing. This whole thread is an hypothesis too... at least I hope it is.

Go straight ahead, let Saturn have the 5-door version. The more Gamma, the more volume, the merrier. At least let Pontiac get the 3-door version. There, no more divisional fighting... just if the world is that perfect...

Would anybody object if this was rebadged as a G3 instead? Pair this up with the 1.6L Turbo available and it'll make smoke.

For once I finally agree with you...

Not from factory. There's a lot more considerations for a mass production line versus a small workshop.

Sums up nicely, and I fall perfectly into that category of customers. One of the reasons I bought the G6 because I wanted an Alero.

I almost forgot about this thread... Well actually I expressed some distress to the service manager that I won't be going back to them after this, they quickly switched me over to another service advisor and gave me a free oil change. Up till now the guy's still working there, but he doesn't touch my car anymore. But I still think if dealers are managed properly things like this wouldn't happen in the first place.

Solstice on Y-Body? Really not sure about that. The whole idea of the Solstice was for it to be affordable (before GM Canada and dealers ruin it). Sharing the platform with the Corvette sounds like the complete opposite. I think the Sixteen is rather unnecessary. It'll just run into the same problems as the Park Ave in China (people who really want one can't afford it, and those who do have the money won't buy it and go to the S-Class). Unless you go WAY beyond and compete in the Maybach/Bentley/RR sector and becoming the American counterpart of those, since they're all German. And by Aura do you mean Insignia? I know you hate GME, but they do exist and will factor in as a part of GM. Hence you're also missing Agila, Tigra, Zafira. But shouldn't be a problem since those all fall under Gamma and Delta and those will have tons of volume to justify existence. As for Pontiac, all I'm asking is if it's to be a performance division, at least a manual on each model an NOT ONLY ON THE FRACKING TOP OF THE LINE ONE WHICH COSTS ALMOST DOUBLE OF THE BASIC ONE.

I was thinking more along the lines of a Mercury Milan... wait... they're the same cars... never mind...

...it's an Insignia with a new nose. http://jalopnik.com/5051872/first-pictures...is-backin-china If China can get the Insignia 4-door as a Buick, why can't North America get the 5-door as a Pontiac? Sure hell looks better than the re-nosed current one or a rebadged Malibu...

I'm thinking of another usage problem: what I if I live in a building and my car is left in the underground parking? How am I supposed to charge it? I don't think dangling an extension cord down 20 floors is a workable idea...

It's SWEEEEET!

Is this the 7-seater MPV that Hamtramck is getting? Styling reminds a lot of of the Chevrolet Groove. http://www.leftlanenews.com/chevrolet-orlando.html EDIT: Never mind... Griffon already posted about this and linked to Autoblog...

I submitted them a question...

I don't know... kind of in between for this one. The design language keeps chanting "Honda" at me.

If selling Hummer means more money on the "fixing" the "damaged" core brands, then I'm all for it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Cruze Someone posted on the page about a "Pontiac Pursuit" version of the Cruze. Doesn't sound very legit though since they don't even use the Pursuit name anymore...

Really? I thought of the Verona/Epica first. After all this car IS a competitor for the Epica in China.

Oh, he'll find a way to weld the top on.

This is probably one of the cars in the lineup... http://www.autoblog.com/2008/09/02/happy-chery-eastar/
