V8 RWD Saab?

Holden bringing over the Ute to resurrect Oldsmobile?

Buick Ute-type something? (That would fit in VERY well into that line-up)

It can't be Cadillac, they alreaddy have their plans laid out before them till like 2007 or something right? Its obviously not Pontiac...

Hows my aim?

SAAB - Hmmm I don't think they will have a RWD concept but an AWD one -

oldsmobile is pretty much dead and I don't think a concept would help...

Buick... I don't think a Ute-type product would fit in their line-up at all...

I won't be so sure about Cadillac .... They have a very good concept coming up that although won't trump the Sixteen will rival it with a shock factor.... expect a revival of a classic name as well however it's not Cadillac as they have their STS which will debut with RWD in some form or the other sometime next year but not sure about NAIAS...

getting back.. your close but I would try to think back into the history of the relationship between GMNA and Holden...

Lumina SS is something that's more likely to show up or be announced at New York or Chicago than Detroit.

Lumina SS (if it keeps that name) would be a "stopgap" car the way GTO is. It would be a limited edition car (depending on capacity at Holden's plant), and would be around only a year or 2 at most.

GM is planning to produce RWD cars here in 2006 for the 2007 model year, making importing the Lumina SS unnecessary.

I knwo the coupe market is a shrinking one, but I do believe that Cadillac needs a 3-series coupe fighter.... a CTC would be it!

Did anybody see the Speed Channels test drive of the BMW 5 series? They are going to have one potent lineup next year.

Cadillac needs to bring some more firepower.

They need a coupe. Don't make it look like a two-door cts. Do what infinity did with the g35. The sedan and coupe look similar but share different sheetmetal.

On a side note, i really enjoyed speed schannels test drive of the srx. If only i could afford one.

I've heard that too. A Buick RWD, V8, coupe/convertible.
