Re: Press release and official pics (interior too)

I actually don't mind the back 1/4 of the car and am warming up to those tail lights but those exhaust tips have to go and I would like a little more of a spoiler.

The interior looks just as bad as the renderings. I am not feeling any of that. The seats are alright I guess.

GM's coined term for displacement on demand-shutdown of cylinders to save fuel.

Re: Press release and official pics (interior too)

I'd never heard the term before, but Active Fuel Management™ is a good term for DOD. Gives a better impression to the public who might not understand what "Displacement on Demand" needs. "This saves you gas, Joe Average."

Re: Press release and official pics (interior too)

Only thing I am not now in love with on the exterior is the exhaust tips, which will come off for my catback/axleback/whatever exhaust kit I put on it nearly immediately. If nothing else somebody will sell some new tips...

Ahh, I hope nothing gets lost in the transition to production..

If it came out like that, man, I'd preorder one..

After the disaster with the multi-displacement cadillac in the 80s, I think it was a wise decision to pick a name that didn't in any way connect this new technology back to what they did then.

Interior looks good but will without a doubt be changed for production.
