Looks like someone is trying to cut costs by having only one mold. Not a fan.

Happy swiss peoples! We dont have all the stupid laws like our neighbors!
We are still allowed to have red turns and no rear foglamps!

Looks ok up close, but hideous from far away..

I am moving a.s.a.p!
How come this is on "in line" with other eu-rules? Or is there a loop hole?

There was another outside well off the road...but it appeared to be the one that was photo'd last year.

They looked red, and the only thing that surprised me when filming was that they seemed brighter

I personally do not like them.

TLSTWIN · 08-25-2010, 08:23 AM

I think it is all a conspiracy to keep your attention so you are looking at one thing and not another. Keep them talking,crying, complaining, raving, etc.....

What are the chances of this car "happening" to drive by when a Chevy Dealer just so happens to have his video camera on.......

First it is, a "convertible" spotting and now it's a tail light change.......

BTW, I kidding

Well, I can only HOPE my friends at Chevrolet did it on purpose. As I was filming cars from our group coming up the street, I noticed the Yellow car in said film clip occasionally driving around at the far end of the GM lot...I had filmed about three segments in a 10 minute time period.....and then the yellow appeared again, this time coming up parallel to the road.

I think it is EXCITING to spot anything new out in the open, driving along a public road (I was in the roadway easement, btw..) and being able to share it with those who may just buy one in only a few months.

What would be SAD is, if such driver gets in trouble for driving said car along said public road during said BBOMG event.

Said subject matter was discussed with senior GM mgt. and I was assured that said incident is a red herring.

OK, thanks Scotty. The pictures of the convertibles on the hauler look like the original tail light design. We will see in due time.

CRANKYPANTS · 08-25-2010, 10:40 AM

I like them, they look kinda cool. But they maybe cool only for the convertible.
