Yep!

Did you notice that in the long term test section they have both a standard WRX and an STI? What a waste.

How bout that review of the V6 Camaro? If it's priced at 24K like they predict that thing will be a hot seller. 300hp in base trim. (wish I had a smiley with its hands rubbing together like yummy yummy)

I guess actually having a vehicle that can do something is gay?

Or are you just bashing Hummer?

Yes while it is a Colorado when you equally equip them the price comes out with in a roughly 3k not 15.

Plus I can't stand the styling of the Colorado/Canyons.

I can't get used to those things at all.

The car looks pretty nice but I don't like the fact they used the old name. I assume they had some "500 => taurus" fears. Initially, I thought this was a dumb move since fiestas were known as underpowered cheapo mobiles with bad reliability. Its a name you'd want to get away from. But who knows. The news clip said the Festiva was a big hit back then and the name "Verve" wouldn't make any press in comparison to a fiesta comeback.

My buddy in high school never had any issues with his festiva. We'd put about 300 miles on it in a saturday night cruising.
