CSpec

A-C pillar is the same. Hopefully the interior is different.

Back looks just like the Murano?

Boooooooring. Monotone and square.

Cool! Great show this year.

Subaru sure has hit a rut since the fantastic Legacy. The exterior on this is weird and boring, and the interior (much like the Impreza) looks very cheap and dated.

Looks rather boring.

The design is very dull overall, except for the crazy MDX and Navigator-esque headlamps. I never understood how Honda sold so many of the current (crappy) Pilots, so this will probably do well too.

Stunning interior, and the electronic parking brake is a big upgrade. Sweet headlights too.

The safe alternative to the BRX. Very simple, clean lines, but very highly detailed. Love the interior.

Looks good, very bold. Certain aspects look weird, but maybe it's still too new. Something that worries me about the exterior is that the VUE went from stunner to just OK from concept to production, even though we were assured the concept was very very close to the real portly thing. Also, the interior is basically the exact same thing as the CTS but taller.

Cool concept--I want to learn more about this engine.

Common theme here, folks....

Isn't there a 6.2L DOHC V8 in the new truck program?

It was GM, but Toyota beat out Ford for #2.

I too like wagons a lot--basically the same car as the sedan version with the same attributes except much more utilitarian.

This sure took long enough to get here...

Cheers to bobo for another great list!

Wow, the Malibu got some extremely high praise. Also, the Camry was given uniform disdain.

2008 is definitely an "off" year for GM. They have a ton of intros for 2009, though (Cobalt, Lacrosse, etc).

Hey all, I was looking to buy some cheapy stealies for my 2001 Saab 9-5 for winter tires. Now I change from summer to winter tires on the same rim, incurring a rebalancing and mounting fee each time. This year I decided to buy some dedicated wheels for the winter tires, but I have had trouble finding reliable information about them. My car (according to TireRack.com) has 16x6.5" wheels, but the key is the bolt pattern: 5-110. I was looking at buying steel rims off a Volvo on Craigslist, but (again according to TireRack) the bolt pattern is 5-108. The question is this: can these wheels be installed on my car? Thanks!

God, Subaru sure fell hard after introducing the superb Legacy. The exterior is a Korean mix of boring and ugly, and the interior looks to be the same. Shame.

I think Mitsubishi could clean up with this car. Subaru dropped the ball hardcore with the new Impreza; it looks like a late 90s Suzuki with an interior to match.

I agree with this. RWD is not necessary for this market, few non-enthusiasts know the difference, and those who do think it's something bad. Additionally, Chevy does not necessarily have to have a big cheap sedan. It would be nice to have something to compete with the Ford Taurus kind of market, but with Ford going down the tubes maybe it's not worth pursuing.

I have a sneaking suspicion the Lacrosse will put the ES, TL, Passat, etc to shame.
