          We've come to the point where no extraordinary preformance can occur without the presumption that someone has cheated.

                      Their quality has risen within the last few years coming close to that of Japanese and European auto manufacturers.

                        Still considered the 4th gen.

                          Actually chuck the GTO is based on a very VERY old chasy from overseas GM products and ride and handling sucks much less add in all the chasy flex, road noise all it has is horsepower

                          cobalt is just another cheap car good for highschoolers and college students

                            They had to raise the bar to compete with foreign companies-cost goes up. I think the only reason they are selling chryslers is because mercedes got on board? They redesigned their best selling cars into more expensive models and sales went down the pooper. Take a look at the grand am and grand prix. How many new c6's or whatever they are do you see running around? I have noticed one and that is only because my cousin drives it. I think it would be funny if GMC Chevrolet Cadillac Pontiac Dodge Jeep ect all left the fargo moorhead area leaving luther to inherit another monopoly.

                            Getcher green hat, we are goin fishin.

                              Yes, the current GTO is based on the Holden Monaro (sp?) from Australia. GTO probably does have some flex in the chassis (schulzy, if you're reading this...DRINK), but nothing that can't be fixed in the aftermarket, they have successfully campaigned GTO's as drift cars you realize?

                                And in Grand Am Gt series as well. Less than half a season old and already has 1 win.

                                  any truck is better than a GM truck
                                  only GM worth purchasing is a vet but why would you spend 66G on that when you can get sooo much more performace for an additional 14G in the viper

                                  Autoline detroit is a great show on speed channel to stay ontop of what the auto industry business wise is up to I had it schedualed on DVR everyweek that way i can skip forward during boring sections...

                                  it's not just american companies that fell hard honda and GM both copy designs of other companies and make things dull and without any style that's why they are falling

                                  toyota is rocking the industry
                                  diamlerchrysler is doing good ford is keeping pace with the industry and I believe both kia and hyundai are the 2 fastest market gainers of everyone

                                  in total sales GM is still #1 but loosing ground toyota is #2 but gaining, ford and diamler chrysler were somewere before honda, honda was like about #7

                                    LOL ok first off not kissing up to you on this chuck... but

                                    why start out with something that needs alot more work and is VERY plain looking 32+ thousand dollar car when you can start out with an STI or Evo 8 or the hemi charger or BMW 3 series or Benz C classes for all around the same price

                                      Obviously you dislike all GM vehicles. There are a lot of good vehicles out there these days, quality has risen in all american brands to compete with reliability of imported vehicles. Show me some proof that the big bad viper is soo much better than the C6 Z06 Vette? Funny how in every magazine I have ever read, the vette gets way more bang for the buck. Vipers are cool, don't get me wrong, but I would rather have all of the technology and looks of the zo6. Maybe I am a GM man, but you can't just say that they are crap and everything is better than them. Now I just need to win the lotto so I can buy a cool car.

                                        They'd most likely file chapter 11 and just reorganize/structure and pay pennies on the dollar to their creditors. I dont think the world could handle such a powerful force just leaving suddenly.

                                          GM is set to release a new vehicle in 2007, can't remember the name, but it is the same car as the Oper Speedster and the Vauxhall.

                                          -IS300-Black on Gold-
