That 2010 Camaro looks too much like it's "competition" to me. A real Camaro would look more like my 71 Camaro . . . or earlier. ;-)

I hope it gets bad gas mileage! I think the real question on everyone's mind [who bailed them out] is "when do we get to see the new line of Hummers?]

GM has a long way to go -- product recovery, reputation recovery, and now Government Motors recovery.
Silhouette, the Camaro is one relatively bright light coming out of dinosaur Detroit. The _last_ thing we need is to have the giggly little green fascists designing little boxes, made out of ticky-tacky(!), with much more expensive "earth-friendly" components than we wish to pay for, as consumers or otherwise (in taxes).
We can even have more fun with this ...
Some may want us all shoehorned into such vehicles, or better, into the following, but I decline:
Nice Flickr allusion there D! I'm not betting on the return to public. But I'll be watching.

All we can do is watch. And we may as well, since we're paying for it.
As you're tech-informed and otherwise informed, let me run something by you. I don't watch much TV (have avoided it for 30+ years) but while on odd hours I now can watch it. Aside from non-stop Jackson coverage up until late this week, CNN I notice features, in addition to flippant, stupidly too-personal behavior among its staff, a lot of slick graphics (too much gimmickry, and stupid sound effects) on all its shows. It features a large touch screen that is simply too "busy" and gimmicky for me.
BUT --
If you're familiar with CNN and its many features, contrast it with CBS, featuring Katie Couric. I felt actually gloomy and depressed watching that. She is not inspiring or even meriting annoyance at any of the extraneous details (graphics and sound effects). It seemed "geriatric" on CBS with poor style of a few features like on other networks (CNN and Fox are slick and overboard on the gimmickry and loud, chirpy behavior), and simply looked dull and unappealing.
CBS is just like General Motors. Stuck in the past, dull, unspiring, not going anywhere.
If by the very slim chance the federal government's takeover of GM leads to improvement, maybe CBS should be next.

Ya wanna bet they don't make it on time, or that it's not really "private" any more than Amtrak is?
