Below par in what way? I was extremely satisfied with my Grand Am. Of course they're not BMWs. They don't cost that much either. I mean, come on.

See I was going to say that not everyone gets to enjoy the fine luxurys of a fine european car and anything not as good is somehow below par. But that would just cause unneeded haste.

GM may have seen better days, but to call them sub-par is redicilous. Tell BMW to come out with a car that can compete with the vette's performance vs price.

For the love of SS, stop using apostrophes on your pluralizations. It makes Baby Chevy cry.

$4 million for a GM tour bus thing. Crazy. The guy who bought that also spent a million+ on a drag car and a handful of other cars.

Ford Freestar. Worst name in automotive history since the Coronet and Citation.

I like the look of the Freestar, but it does have some rather poor ratings. It is also near the bottom of the potential resale list, losing much of its value in a relatively short time.

When launched, the Freestar reminded me of the Aerostar I drove for awhile back in the day. I still like the overall design of the Aerostar. It had plenty of usable interior space, especially for the extended model, completely unlike today's mini-vans.

And you could stuff like 10 18s in one if you did it right. -.-

Yeah most definitely. The new Dodge Charger is a sedan only. There is no coupe option. Wait until 2007 for the Challenger which will be a coupe. Much more of a retro feel as well with the power to boot. They will unveil the new HEMI motor in the SRT-8 Challenger I believe as well (6.4L). The R/T Challenger is slated to have the 6.1L of the current 2005/2006 SRT-8's.

Blah...I had thought the LOUD AS POSSIBLE stereo was finally going out of style. It really makes your ride "pimped" when your rolling down the street and besides the bass, all people can hear is the constant rattling of your car body.
