Got it as a "used" car as Pontiac was goin under with 65 miles on it. After incentives and taxes, it came out to like $22,000. Steal of the century.

G8 GT. Totaled out by insurance at ~65k miles after getting pushed by a VW bug into a Prius. Bought back the salvage and sold it to my fave mechanic.

This is the same person who tells everyone within earshot that he disables traction control because real drivers don't need it.

Too expensive to be of value, and too cheap to be exclusive.

Coat qb gloves with iron dust laden gel. The receiver can catch it with his head!

Are there alternatives that fared better? Despite its poor performance, it may still be safer than having your family of 4 on the back of a scooter. A cheap deathtrap may provide the economic mobility for a family to eventually buy something better (if they don't crash). Denying the poor an effective means of

Orange peel is so depressing. :-(

"There's always a strong temptation to light up the tires in something powerful and rear-wheel drive. This is why you resist that urge when other people are nearby."

How many millions of pedestrians navigate NYC every day? How many deaths again? Are they evenly distributed over the geographic area? If not, fix the offending areas by redesigning intersections/lights/crossings/speed limits. If the deaths are evenly distributed, do nothing. Seems like a lot of discussion going on

For the same reason people are still buying the other unintentionally accelerating , battery fire prone, dysfunctional airbag, firestone tire equipped, rollover mobiles. The recalls simply don't mean much for consumers. I'd be out looking at a C7 today if I had the $$; even if it had a bajillion recalls.

I learned that is it really fun to sit at one salesmans desk while on the phone with another dealerships salesman. I got the two, along with their managers, to bid against each other right there on sales floor for the out the door price. The guy on the phone eventually said "I am not going to play this game

G8 GXP LS3 here too.

Ehh, not really. LS3 and Coyote would like to have a word with you.

There is a great difference between 500 NA horsepower and 500 supercharged horsepower. The XKR and CTS-V are supremely fast, but there is somethin' about that supercharging that didn't do it for me like NA.

Insurance won't cover that! The video proof of where it occurred aint't helping anyone either.

Dude, everyone knows you need aftermarket poly bushings if you want better handling. May diminish the F35s ride quality though.

Did anyone else get confused and read that as "Delta Force"? As in the US special operations group. I thought he must really have not wanted to retire if they needed Delta Force to help. Hah.

GM couldn't get the decidedly low tech detent plunger torque right in their ignition switch. Now they're going to have in car eye tracking (granted it does nothing meaningful yet).

Qualifying such a grand title is disappointing. I think a title of "Construction Projects Where Some People Died" would be more accurate.

"History's deadliest construction projects"
