Sweet! And it's Zeta based... hmmmm. :D

Hood looks cool.

What's with the "GM's Woes" headline from ABC? Did they not just win Motor Trend Car and Truck of the year with the Saturn Aura and Silverado? They're climbing out of the gutter slowly but surely, but ABC is telling another tale? God forbid a domestic car maker do something positive.

I'll admit, I didn't see the segment so I really have no idea what info they reported, but judging by that headline it can't be good.

[61Bubbletop]

Yes, it is ridiculous....I read on another site where someone suggested it should have said "GM Whoa!" while showing the new car....It actually was a pretty good segment covering the challenges of the domestic automakers, I agree though...the piling on is getting tiresome...

That's the media in general these days. If there is not something negative to say they won't report it.

Anyways, back on topic. That front-end is pretty sweet looking; lit has that aggressive look like some other automakers have been coming out with. Can't wait to see the whole car. :thumbsup:

Ok, There's a house burning down with children inside.

GM and Toyota happen to be passing by and run into the building to try and help save some kids.

Both save two kids each, but tragically one child dies in the fire.

The headlines the next day:

Toyota saves two childeren from certain death!

GM fails to save third child from fire!

and that there is how the media views the world of automakers...

And back on topic.. them brakes look pretty sweet :yum:

I may have an easier time convincing wifey to let me buy one of these than a Camaro. "Look honey! 4 doors...heh heh heh."

Jeff noted it's Zeta based, so it won't be that far removed. :thumbsup:

I love the laugh at the end :unibrow: .....It looks as though it will have a very nice weight distribution, there isn't a whole lot hanging out front of the tires....

I think I heard a rumor that this will also be badged as the new Impala or "Caprice". Sounds like the police will actually have a choice in RWD V8's again. I have a relative that's a MA State Trooper, he hates the Crown Vics they drive.

The Impala is being designed in N.A...and it also is incredible.:faint:

The front end makes me think a BMW M-Series had sex with a Cadillac CTS and that's their baby. Not dissing it though. I actually like it. I need to rob a bank.......
