GM's interest in Subaru has precious little to do with expanding its horizons and everything to do with eliminating competition. Competition in the marketplace is good, as it fosters innovation, checks pricing, and increases consumer options. And critical analysis and debate on such matters (opposed to All-American indifference) is also good. Absent a reasonable solution, hey, it's healthy exercise. dcb |

that is correct - i would consider (with some paranoia) a GM product in the future, as their quality control has come a long way in the last few years (or so i read), but it would have to be a nicely styled (problem area), performance car with AWD at a reasonable price (not a problem there for GM, either.) i may sound anti-GM sometimes, but you learn from experience. how many times do you have to be kicked in the nuts before you say, "hey, that hurts! stop it!" i'll wait to see what GM offers in the future.

So there you have it, the "holy grail" of my quest - To make the fine citizens of this community realize that GM is not "da devil" and that there are people out there who don't necessarily think subaru is the answer to world peace (GASP!). |

i think anyone who grasps on to a car, computer, etc. manufacturer and supports them without question is a fool. often people will spend a lot of money on something, find out that its not all they were hoping for or even realize they've made a mistake, but yet still endorse that product. a personal pride issue? i dunno. i don't have that hang up - if it sucks i'll say so. i think a lot of people who buy only American cars just keep buying them because they are familiar with them. imports may seem strange and alien to them, and they are afraid they can't run down to the local Jiffy Service or Mr. Lube to have work done for fear of them not having the right parts or training. i know some of my family members have had some bad experience with Fords and GM, but they just keep buying them. i really don't know why.

the ford /gm rival will continue until the end of time. My first car was a 94 taurus sho, therefore my loyalties lie with ford unfortunately they now have gone to the awd side of the force.
But i do like the focus cosworth... chevy=dead like a rock ford=found on road dead ford=f*cked over rebuilt dodge ....I grew up in a town full of iroc heads I was only 1 of a few ford fans.

Oh My God...Luminas again?
You know the world is really STRANGE when you aren't on the site for a while and you come back and what greets you?
Lumina VS Subaru!! AGAIN?? Listen Shadow, I think you actually have a few good points to make - but can't you find a better example of a GM car to illustrate your argument than the Happy Meal of the automotive world?

As for your families peice of crap caddys, I guess they got lucky or they change their oil before the level is too low. But my fathers caddy does this and two of his neighbors. One neighbor has a 03 DTS the other an 03 STS and my fathers is a 2001 eldorado. I do not think this is a coincidence! And to make things worse, my mother will not open a hood therefore she is getting rid of her GM crap and it is already worth nothing. The best she can get for it is 31,000 dollars with 15,000 miles. A $61,000 sticker price and it is worth 50% in one year and a month. I guess everyone knows they are worthless! ~G |
