I just went to see a Malibu in person today. They had all the trims available, and the LTZ (with the 2 round white lights in the back instead of one) looked very luxurious (I mean like $40000 car kind of luxurious). I test drove the LS and the LTZ and both were great!! 10x better than the Aura and 100x better than the Camry. This car will be such a success!!

Um...Saturn is down

All the black, dirty stuff directly behind it ruins the picture. It would make some clueless people that all that dirt behind the car came from the CTS...my point is that this is not a very flattering picture.

No, there's the CAW there. Isn't there some US-Canadian agreement though that forces GM to build 2 out of 3 cars it sells it Canada..in Canada.

Honestly, it's horrendous. Just a Saab 9-5 or whatever wagon which is ugly to begin with.

It's a very good ad in my opinion, although I completely disagree with it, people will buy into it. For me, an whether a car is American or not depends on the company in comes from. I am sympatheticalto GM's tries to avoid the unions and going to build cars in Mexico, Canada, and elsewhere. In a world where most carmakers (especially GM) are global, where a car is made is irrelevant. Besides, even if its made in my backyard, most of its parts probably come from elsewhere. I understand that GM builds cars in other places because it HAS to (builds them in China to avoid the Chinese tax on foreign cars, builds them in Mexico for the economical aspect of it, and so on). On the other hand, Hyundai and the rest of the Asian carmakers don't build their cars here because they have to or because it would be good economically for them to do so (they'd actually be better off building them in Japan/S Korea), they build them here to appeal to the stupid, ignorant, average american who believes that if a car is made in America it is American. That's BS. The whole idea of "see the difference between perception and reality" is a great ad campaign though. I had been suggesting that the domestics launched such a campaign to challenge the perceived import quality and show that in reality American cars are at the same level as jap cars in terms of quality

It is WAYY too close to the Saturn Outlook. I am crossing my fingers that this is just a chop...although it looks great I would of liked to see a little more differentiation

The OC is right. This $h! will sell like a bitch/hoe

Lol, I would shoot myself if Toy signes as sponsor. This is actually a move I am glad to see GM making - advertising is one of their worse things. If their Ads impoved as much as their cars it would be awesome. Lastly, I don't know about China being a good place to sponsor a US team. I wouldn't use Buick name there unless you are sponsoring the Chinese team. O, and the contract was worth $900 million, not a whole billion.

This is..a week old. I think we've all seen it already.

I hope Ford gets a piece of it too.

Oldsmobile is a different story. Saab won't ever be just shut down, sold off? Maybe, but not killed like Olds.

Yup..but nothing new. GM advertising sucks

I cant see it selling well. I mean think of all the things you can get for 45 grand. \pontiacG8\cts

Well its an economy they don't deserve -- their economy wouldn't have grown so much (look at China's) if they didn't play this game. And its a huge slap in the face that while China keeps their currency undervalued, they impose a 100% tax on any foreign cars not assembled in China. And yes, Toyota can easily move their cars. Their profit margins would just be lowered. As it is now, Toy can sell Camry's for 17k and still make profit equal to that of American Big3 thanks to weak currency, no healthcare costs for employees and simply no unions of any kind.
