    In reply to The Chevy Volt Song: No, We're Not Kidding
    Helpful Hint: If you're going to do a song about a car that makes people want to jam an icepick in their ears,
    at least try to make it catchy.

    Woah. Anyone remember when pretty much every car had a theme song of sorts?

    @RoboRed loves his virtual G8 GXP: So did I. One of my earliest TV memories was back in the days when GM built a half decent truck and backed it up with that catchy tune.

    I was actually under the false impressions that GM built better trucks then Ford. Then, I came into possession of a 1994 Chevrolet K2500 loaded to the max with a 350 and a 5spd. Then, after many thousands of dollars and hours of pain later, I bought a 1990 Ford F-150 XLT Lariat and never looked back.

    I'm not going to listen to it.

    Heads up, GM - if you overdo the hype and the car isn't fucking FANTASTIC, you'll look like dickheads, and we'll be the infuriated taxpayers who kept the dickheads employed and overpaid. Play your cards a little closer.

    When it hit the charts, Weird Al's song White and Nerdy, a spoof of Chamillionaire's Ridin Dirty, took off like a rocket. People called Chamillionaire and congratulated him on his great take on Weird Al's song. The official Youtube view count for Ridin Dirty stands at about 2.1m views, White and Nerdy is closer to 5 million.

    Without even listening to the song, how long before somebody comes up with something that mocks it, and is way more entertaining?

    In reply to Chevy Caprice Police Car Busts Heads In LA
    Notice how the worst looking part of the car is the US designed rear end. The only part that really had any major retooling from its Australian beginnings.

    To US auto designers, if you didn't design it then don't redesign it. In fact just don't redesign it.

    Good to see the old Impala tooling isn't going to waste....

    OTOH, when these hit the auctions, RWD, big V-8, nicely generic-looking...could make for big fun for little money.

    I take it Ford aren't offerring matte-black Tauruses now?

    There was me thinking that I'd already seen the future of Policing in Robocop.

    In unmarked format this is going to be the most invisible cruiser ever. Check out that lack of anything to look at. Without the push bar it will melt into its surroundings like Mystique without boobs.

    @1300ccsoffury: I think I remember reading that civilian sales won't be allowed because of some waiver in the DOT import process; it may not be street-legal for we citizens to drive.
