Totalled the Solara + Pics of car, boo-boo
Let me second that. I live in MO, too, and got my 03 (built in Nov '03) Mazda6 in March '05 for $14K. V6, stick, 20K miles on the odo. A year and a ½, and 30,000 miles later, it's been a great car - a hell of a lot more fun than a Taurus, fo rills. -RBB

You did that just to appease the GM faithful on this site, didn't you. You better replace it with an Uplander, or else. Seriously, glad to hear you're OK. -RBB

GM Powertrain Unveils 3.6-Liter VVT Engine With DI
I remember that, too. But, the point is they liked it anyway - it wasn't the death knell. They said it was weird they went that way, but that it handled fine. Again, preferably (to me, anyway) GM would do away with OHV engines altogether - in their sedans. But, if it revs as sweetly and is as torquey as the initial reviews of the Maxx SS and the G6 GTP indicate, then I don't see that it will be a problem, especially given the muscle-car fanatics/secrataries that will be the primary demographic. \ I doubt many people will be cross-shopping these with Civic Sis. -RBB

Your Mom is car spotting!
Saw a brand new Monte Carlo... With a Continental Kit. Saw a Dodge Neon that someone had spent time carefully adding a second rub strip about three inches north of the factory rub strip. -RBB

GM Powertrain Unveils 3.6-Liter VVT Engine With DI
Question for everyone - why doesn't the media rip Ford for using a LIVE AXLE rear suspension in the Mustang? Talk about ancient... Ideally, GM would have an OHC engine with DI and VVT as the base engine. However, I'm OK with the 3.9L "Cam-in-Block" VVT engine as the base, as it's gotten pretty favorable reviews by the car mags. If it has good torque and doesn't sound like it's going to fly apart when revved over 4 grand, then it will be fine. -RBB

New Corsa Uncovered
Exterior looks fantastic. Love the look. The interior looks cheap to me, and I don't think it's just the center stack. I don't like the GM corporate sea of grey, and the panel gaps look like they leave something to be desired. Hopefully it's just typical crappy GM photography. Still light years better than an Ion. This would make for a competitive compact in NA, no doubt. -RBB
