I love Florida!

Making a Mini larger makes it no longer a Mini but some goofy Mini-dervied entry-level BMW product sold under the Mini nameplate.

Crappy name, nifty car.

What are you, stupid? Typical idiot Cadillac driver. All you care about are your interior designs, air conditioning, ignitions, and ability to stop the vehicle in a safe, stable, and controlled manner. You don't understand anything about real cars. :P

Toyota, Honda, BMW, and just about every other major corporation doing business in the US donated in some form. I don't like Toyota and Honda either, but, damnit, its a fact they helped out. Doesn't matter if I like their cars or not, they donated and should thusly be commended as all other benefactors have.

Can...can I tip it over?

I agree with Balthazar. I don't understand how a few inches either way can render a car the general size of the CTS as decidedly uncompetitive. The size argument made sense with the last Seville which was simply too goddamn big to be carving it out with 5ers and the like. Speaking personally, I don't feel near as comfortable in a 3er as I do in a CTS - this applies for the driver, passenger, and rear seats.

Technically, the color is listed as "Silver Teal Metallic," but it appears light blue about 99% of the time. I can understand silver in certain lighting conditions at night, but green? As far as Buick...well...it has no grille. Tell me which Buick besides the Reatta had no grille.

You and me both, brother...you and me both. I prefer to all it the Curse of Good Taste. ;)

Well, I'm on a job site (I work for the contracting company my father works for now, by the way. No more fueling planes) and I parked in a space reserved for BAY MONT BANK CUSTOMERS ONLY. They have 9 spaces 'reserved', 7 of them empty, while the rest of the lot - minus the disabled ones - is full. So, its either park in one of those spots like myself and all the subcontractors normally do or park on the fifth floor 'visitors' section of the parking structure a about 1/5-mile away. I know two of the security guys; one's nice, the other thinks he's Jack Webb or somebody with actual importance. So, I get a ticket from Depty Dufus for 'unauthorized parking' even though I occupied the space for a whole 20 minutes. So, here's the thing, he wrote no tag # down because he's an idiot, instead he writes "Green Buick Aurora." Its a $5 fine payable to the leasing office. :rolleyes: So, since I don't own a Buick Aurora - much less a green one - I'm not even dealing with it. But I thought I'd share anyway. :)

Aurora and Riviera also had no Olds or Buick emblems on them, just the model badging, but everyone knows what they are.

The GM Heritage Center is owned by GM, no?

Would never have guessed...

I heard the Wagonaire leaked like a bitch, but hey, its still awesome.

Okay, so I saw a Mitsubishi Sigma today. Can someone enlighten me a bit more about this car? Again, obviously an 80s product with Sigma badging, looking very much like so... I'm picking up a bunch of names like Sigma, Eterna, and Diamante in searching for this car. I would've snapped a picture but for my girlfriend is borrowing my digi. Hopefully, I'll get one tomorrow.

It displays on the LCD on the bottom portion of the speedometer. That's how it was in my Impy and Monte rentals.

Hi, my name is Harry. I am a 0 feet 3 inches male. I have pubic hair and brown eyes. I enjoy long well-aimed schlongs, bitching about my Malibu, and PMSing with a close friend or significant other. My favorite foods are cheese Brats, eclairs, and anything tubular in nature with a creamy filling. Im looking for a 0 foot 8 inches male with patience, problems, and a medicine cabinet of Midol in the West Palm Beach area. Overuses Punctuation a plus.

Hey, Oldsmoboi, let's go buy some Sevilles. :)

Jesus Christ, GM Marketing, don't you people run SPELL CHECK?!

Oh yeah, almost forgot... Dear Toyota, Get over it. Maybe people don't appreciate being shout out of an event for car dealers of all people. Rock on, GM.

...and that's about it.

I would argue that Cadillac is far more refined than this Bimmer.I'm not speaking of stodgy styling motiffs, but merely its 'put-togetherness.' Cheap exterior rubber molding, tacked-on foglamps, not to mention the chintzy-looking interior. Granted, most midlevel imported luxury cars from the '80s had likewise lousy interiors like midlevel domestics. If you ask me, the 5er was for the guy who wanted a sports sedan with a little bit of luxury while the Seville was for the guy who wanted a luxury sedan with a little bit of sport. Still, show me the Caddy.

Ew.

But ASIM events don't shut down normally-functioning attractions for a private party. Therin lies the difference.

C'mon, this was hot for its day...
