Great idea! Be cool in Black and Gold too! I think he's tied for greatest Bruin ever with my hero, Mr. Cam Neely.

Anyone able to find the commercial online at all?

That Black Volt looks so sweet! Not to mention I'd love to drive a Voltec powered car. If only they had managed to get 5 seats in one I'd be trying to figure out how to afford one. Oh well. I'll have to wait for the Voltec Orlando.

The Volt does look bad-ass in black.

This.

I hope they use black in some of their commercials.. which by the way I can't wait to see! The greatest automotive achievement for mass production probably ever. They really, Really need to make a monumental statement here.

Wow, they need to stop showing off the Volt ins ilver.

Best hockey player ever. Better than Gretzky, better than Lemieux, better than Sawchuk, better than Howe, better than Richard. Orr was in a league of his own. Too bad all the knee-on-knee hits the less talented took on him cut his career short. Enjoy these highlights from his career.

+ YouTube Video

If I had to list the best players ever the top five would be:

Bobby Orr
Mario Lemieux
Wayne Gretzky
Maurice "Rocket" Richard
Terry Sawchuk

What? No Howe in the top 5? Nope. Howe played a thousand years and wasn't that impressive on the ice. And Lemieux above Gretzky? Oh, yeah. Gretzky had a great team around him for most of his career, Lemieux didn't. And look what Lemieux did. And he was seriously ill half the time. Imagine if he was healthy and/or on a decent team. He'd have buried all the records.

I do think having a Bobby Orr variant of the Camaro would be cool. He's been associated with GM for years, at least since the 90s. It would be a fitting tribute. Maybe the soft top, what with him playing hockey before they tended to wear helmets :-). Maybe a Bobby Orr Z/28 convertible edition.

As I said, they've had Bobby Orr doing Chevrolet commercials for years up here. Many with a hockey theme. I've always found them well done and quite tasteful.

One question. Why "04 2010" as the license plate? Is that a sly hint that it's due out April 2010 and not "late 2010" as has been indicated for quite a while now? Seems odd to have "04 2010". And don't say it's for Bobby's number, because his number was 4 not 04.

The more I see those cars the better I feel about the coming years!
Fantastic!!!

4th quarter (fall) 2010. Wouldnt be april 2010 as the plant isnt even built to build these yet, lol

I like the taillight treatment on the SPark. It looks great!

Also the Volt is hot in black!

The factory is already built, but isn't tooled up probably.

They should've used "Q4 2010". 04 just looks odd.

I'm hoping we see this come out early. It'd be good for GM.

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, it simply means the model number. Each model is identified as they are build so GM can keep track of them. The plate contains the model year and the vehicle number.

Buick61 · 10-31-2009, 03:11 PM

Wait, why are they advertising 2011 and 2012 model year cars if we just started the 2010 model year?

Variant · 10-31-2009, 03:25 PM

Spark looks sooooo much better than then it did in this set of pictures...
