    Hmmm
    Ya know... I hate to jump on the DIE-FUCKIN-DIE Gm Bandwagon..


    But if thats the way the shit falls...


    WHat I dont get is.. 800mil to do merch and advertising for a sequal TO A VENERABLE ROLLING ADVERTISEMENT.. that they practically paid for anyway!


    800mi...


    Exactly where does / how far does 800mil go.. in a company that had to turn down the hear 4degrees, shut off the escalators and remove batteries from its wall clocks.


    Yeah just how far does that GO?


    I heard it takes Rick wagoneer 20min at a gas station to fill up his car to go through 81Bil [jalopnik.com] and thats before he gets his morning mocha javva loda makka lakka


    Shit.
    I heard Lutz can burn through 100mil just takin a crap on the gold plated toilets. That T/P must cost the deficit of small countries!


    Then again, having LUTZ, FRITZ and PUTZ (Red Ink Rick) in the same room.. Im sure they blow through enough stogies and hot air to run right through that kinda cash.


    800mil..
    Nice to know it just evaporates into thin air.


    Just like the profits from Sat radio when they gave all of their projected profits to STERN over 5yrs, only to find out he isnt worth shit an they had to merge with XM, and maybe DIRECT TV to avoid going under.


    NICE!

    Man, I'm just going to Transformers 2 for the R8. It better do something bad ass, like punt that...THING on the left out of the planet.


    Frankly, I think these two little cars fighting as Autobots is like bringing your pre-teen twin brothers to a dirty knife fight.

    @Plecostomus - A monument to failure: I think the real question is, given that the Autobots could basically mimic anything they want, why would they choose to be minicars when the Decepticons are becoming tanks, army helicopters, etc.
