Don't forget about a 3 year feasibility study for the need to sit on the crapper.

My point was that GM shouldn't be concerned about Mustang sales.

ahahahahaha...I shot water out of my nose.
Which raises the question...are they at least on the crapper?

I think GM is just stalling for time. I just wish they didnt sound so stupid.

Or Taurus sales. It shouldnt be taking note of mustang sales but ONLY because they should already have a competitor in the pipeline. We shall see....

BTW, Summer's not over till September 21st.

Ask your question September 22nd.

OK I will wait...

My wife is looking at a Mustang GT right now because we need a new car as a daily driver.

My dad is going to buy an 300C next year. My sister wants the Mustang GT this year as well.

I might also look at the Shelby Cobra next year.

GM has lost $200,000 in sales from my family alone.

So what is wrong with the 400HP Pontiac GTO for 32K?

Not a damn thing in my opinion. Only reasons I don't have one now, 2004 Grand Prix GTP CompG, and '02 F150, both of which have payments

Big Al;

I just can't bring myself to buy a Mustang-even tho I admire Ford for NOT abandoning their loyal customers.

Chevrolet making Corvettes-yea, that was a stupid question.

I think GM has fallen into the Chrysler 90s way of doing things. Name one car in the Chevy/Pontiac lineup, other then Vette and GTO, that is currently produced that you would like to have bcuz it is fun to drive? Until the new V8 FWD cars, there really hasn't been any excitement in those two lineups, ala 90s Chrysler.

What are you talking about? Cobalt SS and Ion RL, the GP GXP, G6 GTP, Solstice, CTS-V, XLR and STS.

What is fun to drive from Ford outside of GT and Mustang?
What is fun to drive from Chrysler outside of Magnum, 300C and Charger?

EXACTLY!!

Re: Chevrolet may offer rwd answer to Ford, Chrysler

Ok, Ill give you that. I didnt like the SRT6, or the Turbo PT.

And the Ram SRT10...you are stretching it.


Point is, people tend to put GM down because there is no Camaro, when they dont see the other cars GM offers for the public. You might not like them or be able to afford them, but they are out there.
