Coming under the radar is a car for Saturn (easy to figure out, just look at what's missing in their lineup), Pontiac (less of a secret, but still under the radar), and Chevrolet (outta left field).

Those are just the ones I know about. All need less than an 18 month lead time once pulled into the pipeline, so it's plausable that something could be kept quiet then surface just a year before production. All seem slated for next year & the year after (2009-2010 model years.... we're in the 2008MY already!) Reason for the short lead times is that all are already "drawn up" and will go on then existing chassis (I suspect all 3 are on different chassis).

Pray GM has a good year this year.

Also, Buick will get a RWD sedan afterall, so take that "Dealers don't want one" article we recently read with a grain of salt... or dismiss it outright. Don't know if it will be a version of the Holden Caprice or a version of the next Cadillac DTS (won't be built in Oshawa).

We'll get the new Chevrolet El Camino within 12 months of Holden's VE Ute hitting the streets in Australia. Intrestingly, that puts it around the same time the Chevrolet Camaro hits the streets. About the same time (less than 12 months later), at least 1 GM division will be getting a "Long-Medium-Short" Zeta coupe.

Again, pray for GM to have a good year this year and the US economy doesn't tank.
