After what Akerson said in his interview I will never buy another GM vehicle again. Just the idea of a car manufacturer's CEO saying that raising the gas prices to force us to buy more economical verhicles is ridiculous. MAKE BETTER CARS AN I'LL BUY THEM! Ford, BMW, or Audi are getting my money from now on.

I'm going to use some scewed reasoning saying that since the vette is a 99 its been grandfathered in, and I'll be paying considerably less than what gm got for it. definitely won't buy any other gm car.

Well I'll use that skewed reasoning if I ever come across a Buick Regal GNX

I'm even considering dumping my old Vette and Sierra just as a matter of principle. I want nothing to do with GM at any level. It's sad because the engineers are doing good work, but their management is in bed with the devil and I'm just not going to participate.

Yea, I just put my Cobalt up on Craigslist today. If anyone wants a fully bolted E85 tuned 410 wheel torque beast let me know... I'm looking for a fox body after I sell mine. I'll be following shaolin's threads and everyone else's to learn what I can about them so I can build a badass one of my own.
