    They all seem like pretty good deals. Especially the Ford offer: cars people want from a US manufacturer that's not bankrupt.

    Subaru does build cars I want (and even bought) ... it's the image and segmentation I could do without. I am not a lefty, lesbian, tree hugger or whirled peaser by any stretch. I just want a reasonably reliable, fast, AWD wagon.

    Good Deal #6
    What: Keeping my '92 Town Car
    Where: My driveway
    Regular Price: Gift from my elderly mother-in-law.
    Black Friday Price: The cost of fixing the electric windows and recharging the A/C whenever I have the cash and get around to it—probably next spring with my tax refund.
    Why It's A Good Deal: Zero down, zero interest, zero monthly payments, zero for comprehensive insurance, forever.

    Regarding the AWD Charger: more is more, and therefore better; the word 'upgrade' improves anything.

    I don't need convincing that I want a BMW diesel, I've been begging for them for years.

    I need convincing that I should spend $40,000+ in a recession on anything.

    Any vehicle sold by Wal-Mart.

    Never mind. #8 fills that slot, nicely.

    Must admit it sounded a bit too good to be true, like Weissman buying BMW.

    Still, I've got £3.80 actual cash on me, right now. Put your hands in your pockets, guys.

    Do they have a "Buy it now" button?

    Let's review the GM asset sales so far. - Saturn was going to be absorbed by The Penske Group. Didn't happen.
    - Opel (Vauxhall) was going to be purchased by Magna, or was it someone else? Anyway, didn't happen.
    - Hummer is suppose to be purchased by a Chinese Company. The Jury is still out on this transaction.
    - Now SAAB with Kienigsegg....

    So far, it looks like GM is batting 1000 when it comes to offing their defunct divisions. Are they asking too much, or are the buyers just becoming aware that there is no value left in these divisions?

    @UDMan: Good question. Frankly, I am really glad I am not a big-wig business mogul. I see the weighty, perilous decisions that the heads of my current employer have to make, and I am glad I'm a Beta.

    @Alfisted: I have a problem with this comment: I already gave you a hart click, so what should I do now?

    I guess a COTD nomination, a golf clap and a promise to buy you a beer if we ever meet in person will have to do...

    Nooooooooooo!

    I guess GM realized they have to steal their design cues from someone. Too bad a nice wrapper on an old Opel or Trailblazer doesn't set the world on fire.

    Maybe Peugot or FIAT are still hungry?
