They did get to the moon in the '60's, when most of the cars where boats

But damn...the car is just so FUGLY.  Why can't GM make a scaled-down CTS body and throw it on that chassis??   ;D

As a SS/SC driver I would agree.....but I still think you're being a little hard on the looks. It's not sexy, nor beautiful, but it's not ugly. Still, mini CTS...sign me up. I'd love a little car from Cadillac with this (the new turbo) engine. Anyway, the major problem with the looks at this point is that they're outdated, it was fine when it came out.

Anyway, my my experience, the SS/SC or SS/TC is not a car you want to be driving when you're  over 30 (if you can help it)......

The Cobalt's not the looker that, say, a Volvo C30 is, but it still falls into the "better looking than the Civic Si" category for me.  And don't make me post pictures of the Caliber SRT4...

Anyway, the Cobalt's successor is on the way, and it's attractive inside and out.  I can't wait for the Cruze SS Turbocharged.

Oh look, the Chevrolet3.  Good lookin' car, but I'm sure I've seen that design before...

Exterior styling similarities aside, the Cruze is not even near the same under-pinnings as the current A-cars.

When I first looked at this post, I was like "I didn't write that," then looked at your name.

VMango's had that avatar here for a while.  VMango, where did you get that avatar, or did you make it yourself?  WopOnTour, you claim to have made that avatar, when did you make it?
