More talk of upcoming GM RWD conecpt cars!
<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2"> Reuss added that GM will introduce several small and mid-sized rwd concepts at next year's Detroit auto show that could share a platform. He spoke Thursday, June 20, at a preview for GM's 2003 vehicles in Milan, Mich. </font>
I like the "Several small and mid-sized" thing... one of these has to be a Camaro...

Wow this is the best "cars news" I’ve heard all day expect for an hour ago when I realized I didn’t blow my motor up going down the freeway, just my #2 cylinders spark plug worked its way out of the block. It cause a loud pop a lot of noise and vibration, but I found the problem, the sparkplug and its all good now. ahhhhh, what a day.........

If you just go from cars from the past and present (ie. no new names), we have some of the following as possibilities:
Camaro
Firebird
Nova
Monte Carlo
Impala
Fiero
Corvette
Regal
Caprice
Maybe the CTSi will be there?
There's a ton more, but I've had a few Sam Adam's Creamy Stouts... so I'm a big foggy!

Hmm...
Well these I bet will be there:
C6
GTO
The Chevy skinned WRX
CTSi
Caddy SUV's
Probably a concept CTS with maybe a hatchback or something. Or a AWD version or something. There's a lot to be spawned from CTS.
The new Buick SUV
Solstice
Possible the new Cavalier
etc
Honestly, I think that fills the list with whats going to be built and will be there. I'm not counting on a Camaro.

More recently, they've expressed interest in spinning off cheap RWD "cars" based on the Colorado platform.
Fair enough....I hope they are not losers like the BelAir was!
