I don't like the looks and personally could care less about what the passanger has to grab onto. They're lucky they're going to have power passenger seats

The 6th gen may be dramatically different than the 5th gen, but it will still have the same appeal.
And to me these two generations are not that different.

something about the 08 bu's kinda threw me. never really cared how the front end looked and never could put my finger on it. I'll have to see the new one to decide if I like that one or not.

It's not the SS, it's just a 2013 Malibu with the Regal GS's front end grafted on and a chunky body kit.

Fen, I know of your predilection for busses and thought you might want to check this one out.

The ZL1 of busses. (just so I can claim it's "Z" related.)




...and by that I mean that when you get on it, you're gonna feel like you've been eaten alive.

Oh, and I just got back from looking at a Caprice.

GM needs to sell this car to the public. Needs to. It's THAT good.

... Just not my cup of tea. Is that the only form it comes in, or can you get one with a nice interior?

Just looks like a rental car crossed with a Impala that was related to a G8.

I like that it's a rear wheel drive V8 sedan and that's about it. The very bland design and low rent interior looks like something that was released in 1998. Nice for a cop car, but I can't see this thing successfully competing in the current consumer market.

Seriously, the car looks good in person. Even with the lower-grade interior for police applications.

There are enough unmarked police cars on the road already.

I don't want to have to be wary of civilians in Caprices.

(Don't say I could just drive the speed limit, I have a genetic disability.)
