I kind of like it. Not bad for Cady.

Eeww. I try not to. It amplifies "American Design gone wrong" like the Pinto and Gremlin.

I saw it at the Anaheim show. It was up on a pedestal so I couldn't see the interior very well. I think it is an awesome luxury car. I just question the mechanical integrity.

I bought a 2001 GM vehicle, and it is GARBAGE. I've had it at the dealer 5 times already and they treat me like an idiot. GM service people are the worst. They screw up oil changes!!! (not exaggeration - they actually put the wrong weight in and left it about two quarts low). I am really unhappy with GM.

Some guy in California advertised in the Dupont Registry for a Mint Condition Museum Quality Collectible Gremlin for $20,000 firm. It was over 20 years old and still smell like new from factory.

LOL

Iknow you guys make a sport to bad mouth domestics, but I've had five Chevys
and they were all great cars. My 89 Z24 went 145k miles with just a cluch and
the usual wear items (brakes, struts, tires). It went to the dealer for one
warrantee repair, a rattle in the door. My current Z24 (98) has 68k miles and has
not has a single repair. I did put a new set of front brakes on at 50k miles, but
I was going to a track day so I wanted fresh brakes.

Having said that, I

No, thanks. I couldn't see paying probably $50K for a domestic.

"A unique combination of bold styling..." - - you can say that again. Just not my cup of tea...too many sharp, rough edges...specially in the front. Looks like it belongs in the movies, maybe with Robocop in the driver's seat!
