The "halo" car is shown up for what it is: a expensive boondoggle designed to boost the image of...Bob Lutz.

Once again: If you want to sell 500,000 midsize sedans, nobody who would buy one of the 500,000 cares that same badge can also be found on a sexy two seater he can't even contemplate buying.

Does anyone loooking for a cheap econo box rush to the Aveo and think, "Hey these guys also make the Corvette baby! Sold!"
