    Fuck you, GM. Hurry the fuck up and start selling the car here. Isn't it already being built in Korea and Europe? Can't you just import it? What the hell?

    Wow


    First they make us click through page after page to see the top ten stupid Chinese cars and their names, and then they ruin the reply button, but not for everybody. It seems that just me and Ash## can't reply.


    What's the deal?


    By the way, this little Cruze is pretty cool.


    I think my tax money went for the seal around the right rear door. That's right, I own that piece.

    Master Pete will have it fixed as quickly as he can.

    I hate this new look with the grill/intake at the leading edge of the hood that GM is using on all their cars. It may give a unique look, but I doubt it's a real inlet, because of aerodynamics, but it will still catch a lot of air and and cause excessive drag, hurting MPG's. (This area is the highest aerodynamic pressure area on any car, and should be as smooth as possible.) ... *continues mumbling to self; "if I had just worked a little harder in school and become a GM designer..."*

    BMW and Honda stand as runners-up, and the Sebring has a league of its own.

    WTCC? I know that BTCC stands for British Touring Car Championship, but what's this? The Welsh Touring Car Championship? Western Sahara? Neither of those is even a real country.


    But then again, that's not a real Chevy either.

    If that thing has true GM parts they're doomed. It will never finish a race. Got to admit, it's going to be fun watching them get thrashed by the other makes.

    Is it even proper for a headline to ask a question? Is Britney getting married? Is Jennifer Anniston cozying up to John Mayer? It's a tease and it sucks. I refuse to read it.

    If you want to see some true track battles BTCC is more impressive than WTCC,I think Chevy will struggle up against SEAT & BMW. Maybe if they do well they may get more respect as a brand,as most people still associate them as Daewoo. Both forms are still more thrilling to watch the F1.
