Re: Big News: Leaked Future GM Product & Production Plans!

When something comes out in 2007, when a company is not in bankruptcy, or likely to gobankrupt, things tend to change in 2009 when the company is in bankruptcy.

Gamma Platform vehicles (Chevy Spark) will be produced in the Orion Twp. Michigan plant. It is a small B segment frontwheel drive vehicle that, judging by the pressure put on the steering system engineer (Me) It will come as 1) An eco-friendly econobox 2) A sporty pocket rocket and 3) A small CUV

I will be in the market for one of these varients when they hit the street.

Re: Big News: Leaked Future GM Product & Production Plans!

With tooling Already paid for, a handful of XLRs will continue to be manufactured on th Corvette assembly line. Good! I love flexible manufacture. Cadillac continues to have its "halo" car, on the cheap. Mercedes doesn't build or sell very many big Roadsters either.

The Impala looks to be a stretched Malibu, just like Toyota created the Avalon, stretched off the Camry. Or the way Chrysler stretched a larger Chrysler off the Concorde. Simple, elegant and solves the problem, as the Malibu is a a throughly modern, well received, automobile.

It's not built on the same line. It's built by hand on it's own line.
