i'm really excited to start working... i went through there new product line today and they got some cool crap comin out... they are comin out with a pontiac G5 convertible... its built on the same chasis as the cobalt with the SS engine and its gonna be a hard top convertible... thats pretty sick.

to answer your question brad... it will be a cold day in hell before i would give up a toyota for a gm... further more it will drop even colder before i sell my tC.

congratulations!!! I wouldn't say GM is the enemy.... they would have to have something to compete with.. hehe!!! All kidding aside.... I will be at FULL ATTENTION when the new Camaro hits... Especially if they have some sort of big horsepower configuration. The GTO would be sweet as well

the new camaro is supposed to be staight nostalgia... we'll see though... GM has a long history of missing the boat on some things... a lot of critics hated the new GTO... but i think they nailed that one... didnt look like much but with a 6 liter v-8... well lets just say that it says something when i guy races your car and doesnt have to mod the engine hardly at all... rhys millen only beefed up internals and put a CAI on the redbull GTO. thats it. also the new solstyce is being raced as one of the first alternative fuel race cars now.
