  1. I have to comment on this. Theproblem with our econmy, car sales, etc is that we want things now, and don't look at the big picture. There's nothing wrong with saving for six months to get a big screen tv. you can saving hundreds of dollars in interest that way. ok, back to the car news.
  2. could this be the first pictures of the new fiesta/escort? http://www.popularmechanics.com/blogs/auto...ws/4213197.html http://media.popularmechanics.com/images/c...d-four-door.jpg http://media.popularmechanics.com/images/c...d-ford-side.jpg http://media.popularmechanics.com/images/c...d-ford-rear.jpg
  3. looks like they put a edge front end on it. So will the next explorer replace this?
  4. I bet thelemon is still a virgin, who sleeps with his inflatable girfriend
  5. I'm glad Mulally is shaking things up. Hopefully the product will be much better. They needed him five years ago.
  6. I Just want to see the thing, too. Hopefully on MOnday
  7. guess i better change my avatar, before i get consumed by hell fire. lol
  8. From What I have seen on the web, here is my two cents. Ford 500- With the New face, and the new 3.5, I think it will sell better. I would expcet about 10-15k more sold. If they redo the interior, then I could see even more sales. It will never be a knock styling wise, but that isn't what this car is all about. If you want a Sportier car, see Fusion. This is ment to be a nice comfortable Cruiser for long trips. Focus- The Styling should no longer hold back a great car. I personally think that having a two bar grille, makes it sporiter than a three bar grill would. The interior will take some getting used to, but I'm hoping that it will feel good, and not cheap. I would expect the sales to hold steady with the loss the the Hatches. Escape- I love the new tougher look, but ford should have at least given the v-6, the six speed auto, and maybe had the 3.5 as optional. I do not expect any big sales increase, should stay steady.
  9. well, it could be ready for fall 2008 as a 2009 model. All the parts come from the mustang, ecept fot the IRS. so Why not?
  10. Saturn confirmed today that it will add the Astra compact car to its lineup late in 2007, marking an important stage in its product revitalization plan. When the 2008 Astra joins the Sky, Aura, Outlook and all-new Vue, no Saturn will have been in the market more than 20 months, giving the brand one of the freshest product lineups in the industry. "The Astra is a great fit for Saturn, with its European style and driving dynamics," said Jill Lajdziak, Saturn general manager. "It also signals our efforts to get new vehicles to market quickly and reinvent the entire Saturn product lineup with unprecedented speed." The Saturn Astra will be nearly identical to the 2007.5 Opel Astra, unveiled this week at the Bologna Motor Show in Italy. It will be sold in the United States and Canada in three-door and five-door configurations. The Astra is part of the larger collaboration between Saturn and Opel. By sharing resources from throughout GM's global network of design and engineering centers, the two brands can develop strong, broad product lineups that will attract buyers to the brands both in North America and Europe. Early examples of this collaboration include the Saturn Sky and upcoming Opel GT, as well as the Opel Antara and 2008 Saturn Vue. "The Astra enables Saturn to occupy a unique position in the marketplace and to strategically broaden its appeal with consumers who usually have import brands on their shopping lists," said Lajdziak. "Saturn's partnership with Opel is a natural way to expand our lineup with relevant products that will attract new buyers into our showrooms." More information will be available when Saturn unveils the 2008 Astra at the Chicago Auto Show in February 2007. About Saturn Saturn, a division of General Motors Corp., markets vehicles in the U.S. and Canada through a network of about 500 retailers, with a focus on providing innovative products with solid value and excellent customer service. In 2006, the brand has undertaken a major revitalization of its portfolio with four new vehicles: the Sky roadster, the Aura midsize sedan, the Vue Green Line hybrid and the larger Outlook crossover. Next year, Saturn continues its aggressive growth plans with an all-new Vue compact crossover (Spring 2007) and the new European Astra small car (Fall 2007).
