Question the car no one asked for is a hit..the Magnum.GM the elky,the truck no one asked for?

The Magnum is out in droves now along with the 300C..these things are popping up everywhere here in Orlando..WOW..the Magnum looks great..saw one brand new run at the track..nice cars and no one asked for a station wagon but they are selling!! BIG TIME..just like the 300C...

now what Im asking you is why not the El Camino? Get it here ASAP and market it like D/C market the Magnum..

the car no one asked for is back the 2007 El Camino! It dosnt make excuses...The Revolution continues!

Maybe they are blowing up in Orlando...but in NJ, I have seen more GTO's then Magnums on the road. Total is now 5 GTO's, Zero Magnums. I did see one dark blue Magnum SXT with tint. I also havent seen many 300's, but more then the Magnum.

I've seen plenty here in Nor Cal. Funny thing is I just saw my 1st one on the street about 2 or 3 weeks ago. Now, like you said, these things just seem to have exploded on the scene.

Another homerun, so it seems.

The new Grand Prix has been out for nearly 2 years, while the Magnum has been out about a month and a half. Of course you'll see a ton of Grand Prixs and only a few 300s or Magnums.

I was speaking in terms of cars that seem to be in big numbers in relation to all other vehicles on the road. I did see about 5 Magnums and 4 300's today though...on the dealer lot

In my daily commute I see about ... 3 x 9 = 27 300C's/Magnums on the way to and about 27 on the way back. They have no drivers, though.

And they're all being hauled to Detroit from Baramlea.

You certainly topped my "witty" post.

Does your 300C exhibit the mysterious pull to the right? Or you are not driving it, but store in garage for bragging purposes only?

I've seen a few Magnums in Orlando, but not everywhere.

Here in the Disney/LBV area, I see maybe one or two max a day, and they're the same ones seemingly, a dark blue one and a tan-ish one. There are quite a few 300's around too.

However on the GM side, I have seen ALOT of Aveos and ALOT of Grand Prixs. Also the CTS is VERY popular as is the new 5 series. Other than that rentals dominate this area, Sebring convertables, six banger Mustang convertables, Corollas, etc.

Well, I've been asking for a new El Camino SS since '87.
