Buick May Add small car below LaCrosse, G8 in Jeopardy
I've read about the baby buick on a few different sites now. I think that it's a good and bad idea. Good for Buick but bad for Caddy. Certainly the Caddy that will slate under the CTS will be on this new platform but how many variants do we need of this platform? I think that GM should stick to this formula: Caddy - RWD and AWD to compete with BMW and MB Buick and Saab - FWD and AWD to compete with Lexus, Audi and Volvo Pontiac - RWD Chevy and Saturn - a mix of FWD and AWD cars and trucks GMC and Hummer - RWD and 4x4 I guess that the above makes too much sense to GM. Let's keep it simple! The Alpha model for the US should go to Caddy and Pontiac. The baby Caddy, it's obvious who that would compete against (BMW 1). The G6 should be replaced (I've read rumors that it will) by a new car on this platform. Put in the up-coming 1.4T as the base with a larger 4 banger direct injection turbo as an uplevel option (from the solstice GXP). Make this the GTO and slide a direct injection 6 or even a direct inject turbo 6 (or bi turbo). I know that this won't appeal to those who want the new car to be just like the OG GTO... Well think about it... What was the first GTO? A small entry level car with a high powered engine. Well why can't that be a 4 or 6 pushing 300-350hp and getting around 30mpg? Discuss...

FRANKFURT: 2008 SAAB 9-3 Turbo X
The car isn't much more than a dressed up base 9-3. I love the wheels but the rear bumper is way too busy!

GM's Saab cuts targets on way to break even
i would like to see the return of the liftback/fastback style of the saabs similar to the mazda 6 fastback for the 9-3 and a cls style 9-5. the need a better entry level car than the 9-2x (and i own one but not because it is a saab but because i wanted awd where i used to live). let saab have a delta with a turbo 4 and give it an awd option. give a crossover but base it off the epi 2 and give it some wagons. saab should be a 3 car line up (7 variations, delta hatch coupe and 4 door, 9-3 vert, fastback sedan, wagon, 9-5 cls like sedan and wagon) and one crossover.

2010 Pontiac Firebird or GTO?
i just hope they don't make it a rebadged maro like it looks like they are going to. i would like to see a new car with it's own design based on the current pontiac design cues.

DEBUT: 2008 SAAB 9-3 Lineup
if those are the stock (clear tails) then you can get the '06 tails and put them on there. i would keep the clers and get some black tint spray to match the black of the front lights.

DEBUT: 2008 SAAB 9-3 Lineup
they should have bumped the hp to 300 at least for the awd version.

SPY SHOTS! 2008 SAAB 9-3 Rear
i would guess that similar to the clear tails that you can buy for the wagon these will not be standard on the us spec cars

GM Employee Pricing
you need to be a family member but they aren't going to ask for a family tree when you purchase. the dealership basically wants the code and they could care less who you are as long as you have it.

Crap........(Well, not anymore)
i know what you mean... i've been thinking about a 2nd car too... been looking at the old z3 based m roadster. it can be had for not a lot of money, looks cool and has a good amount of aftermarket support. for me it would basically be used for a weekend/weeknight toy. if i was looking for something around $25k i would look at basically what you are looking at plus used boxster s and a basic solstice gxp (i would imagine with the gm discount it would run about that).
