Personally, I would have tweeted "My f@#kin bad, sorry"

If my memory serves me, Android is the best selling smart phone platform, RIM is losing market share quickly.

I forgot, cars are the only mode of transportation available. Everyone in the entire history of the world has gotten around in a motor car.

Why did you have to remind us of that thread? Rememebering that always brings up a sense of........ Exactly: EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!eleventy-billion Because epic thread was epic.

The G8 had rebates, but your right, most Pontiacs only virtue was cheapness. You were marked down because Pontiac is still a sore subject for a few people who thought of the brand as a sacred cow. If you're interested you can read some of the old threads in the Pontiac forum, they get contentious. Also, look for the EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!!!! Thread in the lounge, its locked but still good for a laugh.

I recall my sisters old Grand Am had a hand brake, I think it has to do with seats. A car with a standard it available bench seat would have no place for a hand brake, and many GM cars from the last 20 years did have benches available.

Ugh, I could never drive around in something that bad. My LeSabre Estate, for all its issues, was ay least in one piece. When that chick banged into the Prius and ripped the bumper off I could only manage a couple days before paying for it out of pocket while waiting on State Farm.

I noticed that too, seems like a fairly recent thing.

Welcome aboard

Oh snap

I'm 6'3 and have driven the 1100ish mileage from Springfield, MO to Washington D.C. in a Mini. Even did it with enough clothes to last 10 days and other various things that couldn't go with the movers. Am I a wizard?

I could see taxi and limo services being interested. I assume the battery will eat too much room for police to consider this instead of replacing Crown Vics.

Wonder what the pricetag is

Is it just me or does he seem like the kind of guy Josh Oliver, leader of the WWW.thegmsource.com, the greatest site ever, would envy?

Lick Charlie Sheen, he's likely the antidote.

Nearly got run over by an SVT Contour

Don't do that Cubie, YJ might get jealous. We don't want him to think we don't think he is worthy of the white Accord anymore. BV, have you considered an early 90's Grand Am or possibly a Mazda Milennia?

You were saying something about Kool Aid...

The important thing isn't that some peoples predictions based on emotions and outdated logic have been proven wrongs, its that GM is making sales.

It saved them money. Instead of developing an Insignia, Regal, Grand Am, AND an Aura, they developed just the Insignia (and did a great job) and slapped Buick badges on it for the places they don't sell Opel. For people who were in it for the deal, there is the still very nice Malibu. For those who want something nicer and sportier, there is the Regal. Ditto Cobat/G5 - Cruze/Verano Ditto Aveo/G3 - Sonic Only the G8 and Solctice don't have a direct replacement...... yet. And how many cried that GM was going to fail without Pontiac? Camino? Ocnblu? Anyone else? GM4life, I'm sure we could find a handful of others who said it as well. The fact is GM is healthier without Pontiac than it was with Pontiac the last 30 years.

I'm on sale?

If we could do two tiny two-doors, or of the Coop were to be taken out, I'd love to get a Fiat 500

You wacky Europeans and your cars we don't get in the states. A couple other, very remote options would be a previously enjoyed A4 cabriolet or a Volt if I need a car after the waiting list gets pared down.

Am I the only one who makes an automotive contingency plan? If my car were to be destroyed tomorrow, I have a list of cars I'd check: Jetta Sportwagen TDI Golf TDI Regal Taurus Clubman Journey (this one surprises even me, but I could see picking one up) So what's your short list if you needed a replacement for what you've got?

It was a federal mandate for a while, either airbags or automatic seat belts, and the belts were cheaper. Thats why only a few cars made after airbags became mandatory have had the auto belts. It had just been a long time since I'd seen a car that had them and they worked.
