Again, you're right on the money. I'm so sick of hearing people complain about 'GM bashing'. News flash, it's not bashing when it's the truth. Take a look at the quality and reliability of the cars they are putting out these days and take a look at their financial turmoil. Yeah, we're all wrong for bashing such a wonderful company.

Speed isn't the only thing that makes a car. It's a much nicer vehicle, better handling as well.

Read closer. In this scenario the Camaro is 1 year old. Notice the years in the previous posts. So... you need to read closer.

dude that post said. a used camaro.. not new.. u cant compare a 2003 camaro to a 2005 mustang.. thats like comparing a apple to an orange with all the technology changes.. the 2005 camaro would have 400 hp if it was still around.. the same as the GTO does. The GTO is faster than the mustang and the dodge charger RT also

anyways.. enough about ****stangs..the only decent cars they put out are the cobra editions.. the gt and v6 versions are powerless compared to the gm and dodge lines.

SOOOO many things have changed in technology in 2 years related to the 4.6 in the MustangGT and the LS1 V8. NOT

It's like comparing apples to apples made 1.5 years ago.

possibly, actually doubtful, the SS might and it would be outrageously expensive if you consider what GM is doing now.

There's your apples to oranges. GTO is a differnt kind of vehicle. It is much nicer, it is also more expensive. BTW have you even glanced at my avatar?

umm what does that mean.. mustangs have terrible resale value? cause camaros have way better resale then mustangs do if u were implying the opposite and mustangs are notorious for under performing compared to the camaros and trans ams'

you know whats funny it is so true about people bashing gm.. they cut down the solstice even though it is better than the miata in pretty much any category.. the corvette is dollar for dollar the best sports car on the planet. the GM trucks have been the #1 selling truck division for like ever.. forget this ford #1 crap thats because ford has ford and thats it.. not gmc and chevrolet twin lines.. the camaro was hands down better than the mustang all the time but couldnt sell it because useless fat girls bought stangs cause they were cute and real men bought the monster camaros' /// the cadillac is re-emerging as one of the elite cars again with all auto magazine publications.. Hummer owns the jeep commander and land rover and whatever hunk of crap can challenge it..

If u put a honda badge on a new cobalt ss i bet every import kid in north america would cream over it.. because it is a gm product it has to be a piece of crap though..

lay off the general already.. people should be supporting home grown autos and anything made in north america period and stop complaining or pretty soon everything will be imported into the country because noone can afford to make it here because noone buys it and its cheaper to make it in taiwan

end of rant

if you reply and cut me down i hope u trip and fall and your tongue and nose land between the crack of a 380 pound female that hasnt bathes in 3 months

wooooooooooooooo

finally someone with a brain

gm is in financial trouble BECAUSE OF ALL THE RETIREES THAT THEY HAVE TO SUPPORT.shame on gm for being loyal to their employees giving them pensions and healthcare. lets keep buying **** mobiles so that when our kids grow up they wont be able to get good jobs

the guy that owns that nissan titan is obviously an idiate,hell hes in a forum for grand am owners and he doesnt own one.how about u go find a forum for u and the ten other morons who bought the nissan titan,maybe u can buy the honda ridgeline next,its just as ugly as the truck u have now

DO gm employees actaully have workable skills? Hell no...the majority dont...its manual ****ing labor...hell its not even that...its push button labor.they are overpaid and get better benifits than I do.

the best thing GM could possbilly do is just say **** the union fire all union workers (or let them go on strike...whichever comes first), take a hit financially of course...if they survive that..hire ONLY non-union workers and go on from there. Extreme? HELL YES It is....but worth it

you act like GM is the only place for employment...gah


and I dont know about you....but i dont want my kid shooting for such a [sarcasm]great job working in a factory anyways[/sarcasm]


no sir, you are an idiot...Iv owned a grand am you jackass...I got rid of it because it was a major piece of **** and spent about as much time in the shop as it did in my possesion.

as for my truck i think the titan is 100x better looking than the ridgeline and is one of the best looking trucks out there. And one of the best trucks in its class....period dot.
