I like it. :cool:

Although I'm really more of a full size sedan man, myself. :p (Have a 1994 Bonneville SSEi)

I'm interested to know what Pontiac will do with the Bonneville...I've heard rumors of a G8 as its replacement...

Interesting. I'd prefer the coupe over a convertible though.. but I'm not a big fan of convertibles.

OT: I'm waiting to see how the Altima gets re-designed and how the coupe will look.

Looks good, I'm not a convertable type of guy though.
Isn't this GMs first non Cadillac vert since they killed the Cavalier vert way back when?

Is that built on the Cavalier platform? Edit-Or the Cobalt chassis? If so, blech...if not blech anyway.

Are they going to call it the Sunbirdy?

It's a hardtop convertible, so it's a coupe & a convertible

Looks like a Saab 9-3 vert and is I'm not mistaken its built on the same platform. G6, Malibu, and Saab 9-3 are all based on the same platform!

Now, why the Saab'vert does nto get a HT Convertible is a mystery, especially for the $40K they charge for that thing!!

There's the Corvette still, although I don't think the 05 is offered as a convertible yet.

It kind of looks like a lady's shoe, but then again, a lot of convertables look like that to me.

Looks good.

I think all of Lutzs long term plans are starting to come out, better inetriors, updated car lines as a whole, more RWD setups, etc...
