So why is GM going down the drain? Take a stroll through any GM dealers lot and the reason is obvious. TOTALLY LACKLUSTER CARS........ Like others have said, it looks like the rental lot at Hertz.
Let's take a look!
Malibu....BORING.......Horrid colors, overpriced compared to the Japs and does nothing really well. That extended semi-suv version is laughable.....UGLY....
Impala? According to what I hear the police package model is literally falling apart just sitting on the lot. Another totally boring, and OVERPRICED ($27,00 for an SS model???) car.....
Monte Carlo? Ok, it's a bit better than previous models but.............. Still FWD???? WTF??? OVERPRICED again...and take a look at that interior. It sucks............
Cobalt? Now here is a car with some potential, but once again GM fscked it up. The car (ss version) has tons of power but can't corner worth a shit.... Yea........ That's GM all over......
Corvette...that's a give...one of the best cars ever made.
Up coming Camaro? GM will over price it and fsck it up with some base package that turns the car into a slug....
Hey GM want to know how to sell cars?
Look at Chrysler and Ford.... The Mustang, even in a bas model is a looker, fast, has plenty of standard options and will cost you less than $20k..... The V6 has PLENTY of power. Want more? For $25k you can have a GT, again VERY well equipped even in base models.
How about Chrysler? Ok, I think they are ugly and a little overpriced, but there is plenty of bargaining room in the price and even the V6 Charger has plenty of power. Go up to the Hemi and you are talking serious power and comfort all at once. Again, nicely equipped in a base model.
So GM?
How will you fsk up the Camaro.....
My predication:
Optional: keyless entry, tilt steeringpower door locks,power windows,decent sound system, decent rubber and rims, Standard:
Shit interior and an underpowered engine... Anyone remember the 1982+ Camaros with the 4 cylinder engines? Here we go again...
GM has a knack for screwing things up and they will do it again.
Again GM, take a look at the Ford Mustang, study it, copy it's marketing philosophy and you will have a winner. Do business as usual and you will have another loser like the Monte Carlo SS.
