  1. How would you know? Are you hiding something?

    I believe that the next Vette is mid-engine.
  3. this is a condition that is not expected to occur every time, that's probably why GM's own crash testing didn't find it. Of course GM crash tests their own vehicles, you would be nauseus watching all that perfectly good metal getting crunched.

    I disagree, Chevy is getting NO BUMP whatsoever from Corvette.....and the Corvette name is pulled down by the Aveo, Cobalt and Malibu.Corvette needs to be its own brand, and can sell alongside Cadillacs and Hummers, Chevy can have the Camaro.
  5. That is the plan, and the genesis for the statement that this could harken a new golden age for GM. Buy the stock at 33, watch it go to 330!

    my words exactly. when you have an agenda, everything looks like a conspiracy to put YOU out of business

    The japs don't think so....they would rather advertise them high, to get the press and sales traffic, and then hope nobody notices when they come in low, since they have a full time apologist staff working in the automotive press.
  8. don't be sorry.....the market will decide.
  9. How right you are!!then, redo the malibu, get rid of the LaCrosse, stop building the minivans!!
  10. uhhhh..............no!simple math pretend: 2004 = 1000 sales 2005 = 41% increase => 1410 sales 2006 = 36% decrease => 508 less vehicles = 902 = 10% decline from 2004 another good example: one year, your stock loses 50% of it's value, how much do you need to make the next year, to break even?? start with stock at $10/share, lose 50%, stock is worth $5 to get back to even you need to return 100%!! good luck.
  11. where in your calculation is the cost of the electrical energy that flows through the "plug"
  12. You can bet your A$$ that the Camaro won't fail for fuel economy. Just take a look at the Vette.....28mpg plus on the highway, ripping asphalt all the way.
  13. Cool solar array, how much is the initial cost.....and what time to payback??oops, i see that you answered someone else's question.
  14. Risk management, just like having 4cyl, 6cyl, 8cyl, diesel, di-gas, etc.

    Don't forget to apply the Jap fudge factor to any published HP figures. A Toyota claim of 268 will likely boil down to 240 or so when tested to an SAE standard.
