Wimpy Horn
My family has had two 90s Park Aves, (My bro still has the 92, and my dad had a 94), and the horn on those things sounds like a fricken train.

I like the grills.. but not really caring much for the two slots above the arrowhead.

Grand Am
If you get any 96 to I think 2002 vehicle with the 3100V6 or 3400 V6 engines check to see if the intake manifold gasket has been replaced. That's a common issue in those engines and has happened to my 97 Achieva, 99 Alero (dealership covered it under warranty after some finagling), and my dad's 00 Impala. Other than that and general maintenance, my family and I have to do very little to keep all three cars running (aside Achieva that was totaled, but that's a different story). You can probably find some 96 or 97 GT models pretty cheap and I think those Grand Ams looks sweet in black or red.

Find Your Style
Hmm.. didn't really pick me very well.. #1 - Chevy HHR - Nice vehicle.. but nothing I would really consider owning. Other recommendations: CTS-V - YES!!!!!!!! Saab 9-2x - Would consider a WRX way before one of those. G6 Coupe - I had figured this would be the #1 choice.. but apparently not. Envoy Denali - Uh... Buick Rendezvous - Uh...

Buick Lucerne CXX Luxury Liner
Love that interior. The center exhaust is a nice idea but here it looks forced.

Why does "Jurassic Park 4 movie prop" come to my mind?

GM ACCESSORIES: NEW ELECTRICAL CREATURE COMFORTS
Any idea if these could work with older vehicles or just available for newer ones?I'm looking into getting a remote start for my Alero (wish I could get one before winter..) and depending on the price I'd definitely would want to go for this.. not so much the key fob (which still is awesome), but more for the range. On my Achieva, I had an after market combo system (alarm, keyless entry, & remote start) installed by a local audio/security shop and I was able to start the car right outside one building on my college campus and my car being parked a good few hundred feet away from it. The key fob on my Alero I basically have to be less than 40ft for it to take effect (granted this is just keyless entry on that one). Edit: just noticed one thing I use a lot.. where's the trunk pop button?

SEMA 2006: Chevrolet Silverado 427
I like the scoop.. but I won't complain if it's gone or toned down in the production.. Something I would like to see in the production is a regular exhaust with duel pipe out the back... I've never been a fan of side exit exhausts... Oh and door handles would be nice too.

SEMA 2006: Chevrolet Colorado Z-71 Plus
I like the WTC inspired grill, but I'm not too sure about the headlights... Oh and the exhaust tips are sweet.

- Headlight Aim off
About two months ago I had taken my fog light out to clean it out and to really get to it the headlight cluster has to come out. So I had taken just the driver's side headlight and foglight out and put the headlight back in no problem. I had driven it for a good two weeks and the aim was straight on. Well when I had put the fog light back in and put everything back together the headlight aim was about a foot lower than it should be. I tried turning the adjustment clockwise and counter clockwise with not effect. I've tried reseating the whole headlight fixture several times and it's still aiming too low. Friday I had taken in my car for regular maintainable (Coolant flush, oil change, & tire rotation/balance). When I dropped my car off I asked them if they could take a look at the headlights and told me they'll see what they can do. Well when I picked the car up the mechanic told me the same thing I was getting.. he tried the adjustment knob and reseating the headlight and it wasn't budging. This is a small garage nearby where I live and my whole family takes their cars there so these guys get some really good business from us and I get the feeling these guys don't screw us over and are honest workers. So I'm curious if any mechanical gurus here could possibly lend some info. I'd rather not have to go out and buy a whole new headlight fixture just to correct the aim. I'd appreciate any help anyone could provide. Thank you.- SEMA Preview: Nissan/Marc Ecko Armada & Pathfinder

I think this bolded part of the description is pretty funny.. Maybe because it's dark and no one can see how horrendous it is?- In Praise of the Pontiac Aztek
I'm still trying to decide if the concept was worse or better There's one modified Aztek out there that I've been trying to find images of.. it was dropped down a few inches.. had 19" or 20" rims.. all black body. I actually think it made it good looking..- Opel Astra Sedan unveiled

1991 Olds Achieva http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGLeFg_25gI- Opel Astra Sedan unveiled
I'm gonna hold my breath until it's full unveiled. I'm really hoping the front end is the same as the hatch, rather than the Brazilian sedan.- Spied: 2008 Nissan Altima Coupe [updated 11/21]
I heard somewhere saying that the DCX midsizes (Seebring, Avenger) were not getting any coupes. And they said there was no market for coupes.. Now, only if Subaru would do this to the Impreza and Legacy.As for the Altima, I like it.. though, G6 coupe is the first on my list.- Opel Astra Sedan unveiled
That's exactly what I'm thinking.. I'm really hoping that the US/Euro front end is much different from the Brazillian verion.- Opel Astra Sedan unveiled
Is it my imagination or do the first few pics (Opel badged) look like it has a different front fascia on it more resembling Aura/Vectra & Astra(hatch) while the ones below (Chevy badged) have more of Cobalt style headlights. - Headlight Aim off
