Its not that we don't need more Hummers, its that we don't need more bloated, underpowered Hummers.

I think Hummer is going to get a version of the Solstice. Think Pontiac, but boxy...

Those idiots only say that because the Hummer is the only car they actually somewhat move off the lots. They still havent figured it out that in order for their scrapiron shennanigans to survive, they need to hit the civic/accord market. He should change his name to Bob Putz.

Yea actually....I installed a system in one. My 4 year old cousin could assemble a better car. Every panel moves a good inch, gaps are huge, the plastics are recycled milk jugs, HUGE pos. Not NEAR the quality of a new civic, golf, or ANY other car in the same class. Sure its fast, but its a fast, poorly built POS.

Not everything GM makes is bad. The Caddys are pretty good (XLR-V anyone?), C6 and the Impala SS offers a V8 at Accord V6 prices.

Half the wannabe racers in here declare the Accord V6 (and TL) to be way too overpowered for a FWD car (torque steer), a 300+hp V8 through the front wheels is somehow BETTER??

Good solid post.

Just because you own an American car, doesnt make them good. The numbers are on my side. The echoes in american dealerships are on my side. The price breaks are on my side. I notice you have a vette in your avatar....you want to tell me otherwise that the interior isnt a total parts bin?
