  1. I wouldn't get too excited. The 2008 Malibu still has it, the 2009 Cobalt MCE will probably still have it, and we still have to look at it in the trucks and SUVs for at least 4 years.
  2. I'll believe the gauge cluster stuff when I see it.
  3. Just pipe dreams? Lets hope not.
  4. Note to GM: Buid me an awesome vehicle I can afford. Thank You, bowtie_dude

    Wow, thats ugly.
  6. Except without the fancy bumpers and ground effects, the Aurion is Ambien CR on wheels. See what I--ZZZZzzzzZZZZZ
  7. No...not really.

    Saw a Mary Kay SRX-4 earlier today. Guess Mary Kay is letting you choose your pink Caddy now.

    That comment from the Edmunds journalist is very telling. This makes me even more excited for what I already thought was an outstanding car.

    I've always liked C&D's writing style.
  11. Whats predicted pricing for this?
  12. People might think its odd, but I like window controls in the center. I don't have to switch hands on the steering wheel.
  13. Base-level interior is completely unimpressive. Sedan is ugly. Coupe is nice.

    Sharp car. GM needs to bring the Fiero name back to life with Alpha.
  15. Now that is a good decision on GMs part.
  16. GM just got my attention.

  18. I can't believe they're still offering that garbage.
  19. The bar splitting the grill needs to be thicker. But I think it looks good otherwise.

    Still waiting on my affordable and practical RWD Pontiac.

    Well, I only have liability on my car, so I'd have to pay out of pocket to get it fixed. Still haven't fixed it because, to be completely honest, I don't care enough to.
  22. I get 25/35 in my 2001 Crapalier 5-spd, and its got that old 2200 iron-block I-4.
  23. I can live with the materials in a sub-20k car if the design is nice. The tC dash is hard, but is nicely grained and the interior design is nice. The Cobalt was definitely engineered to compete with the current Corolla. Everything else in the compact market has surpassed the Cobalt AND Corolla in the area of interior design and materials quality. GM needs to make the Cobalt competitive before the Corolla is redesigned and leaves it behind as well.
  24. That center stack makes me want to vomit. How is it they can do a nice integration of their corporate stereo with the Sky, but somehow not with any other vehicle they sell?

    It actually hit Kentucky back in February. My Crapalier was the victim of a hit'n'run by a truck/suv (I know it was a truck/SUV by the height of the dent on the fender, above the tire, which is way to high for a car) one weekend. I just didn't think to post it.
