    Build Buicks and Chevys there if they need to...

    Not Cadillacs...

    It kills the brand image and when that's gone it's all gone...

      Bullshit...

      That's why the only place you see one is on the back of a Chevy lot next to the dusty volt nobody wants...

          Why not?

          They charge us here in Detroit the exact same "Destination Charge" they charge to ship anywhere in the U.S., even if the Dealer is a block from the plant.

                      Honda is way overrated. They "reliability" monicker is taking a severe hit. Never, ever buy the POS Honda Pilot. The 3.5L engines in those things are sludging like the toilet the morning after eating a Paula Deen recipe...

                        Just changed my mind...

                        I don't buy new cars anyway...

                        I rotate used vehicles...

                        Currently I own three GM trucks and I'm supposed to be a Mopar guy...

                          Clown car.

                          My brother has an Aveo, with a year newer motor in it. It was throwing a code so he was able to talk the guy way down on it. My brother likes it for his commute but the kids hate it. They'd rather roll in mom's Commander.

                            I wouldn't go that far...

                            I work on vehicles all the time and Honda's don't have a lot of problems...

                              The CTS-V is neat, but not really all that nice...

                              Any SRT will age better than the GM offerings...

                                They're better than average overall maybe, but getting they also get a free pass on their problems they create and like to ignore. I had a girlfriend who had the old late-80's, early 90's Civic that had a bad headgasket. Those cars were infamous for them...
