Not exactly sure what years but I think around the mid to late 1970s through the plant's closure in 1987.

Apparently all 2014 Cruze models might be getting an MPG bump from aerodynamic enhancements being spread throughout the lineup.

Quick walkaround, exhaust note, and 0-100 km/h video of a 2014 Holden Commodore SS-V aka Chevrolet SS minus the manual transmission.

You forgot to mention the addition of a 415 hp 6.2L V8. ;)

On a side note: I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for a manual option and quad tip exhausts for the 2015 SS.

Almost forgot about this.

Four years ago today...GM went into Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

There was a lot of fear and uncertainty in the days that followed, but four years later, I have never been more confident in this company's ability to design, build, and sell the world's best cars, trucks, and SUVs.

There's still a lot of work to be done. The next few years are going to be very exciting.

Man I can't wait.

They are putting out some good stuff lately.

If the 6th gen ends up being as good of a looker as the 5th gen was when it came out and blew our minds....my wife will want to kill me when I ask her if I can "upgrade" lol.

Ha ha, I may have to convince the wife that my son has earned my 2013 when the 6th gen comes out, please do it right GM!

Just something I noticed while checking inventories:

2014 Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra Crew Cabs with 5.3L L83 V8s are now on their way to dealers or already on dealer lots.

GotGame55 06-04-2013 11:09 PM

Will there be 6.2 option in the 1500 single cab short bed? And when will we able to "build" it on the website. Its says "Coming soon" but is it like this month or next month?

FenwickHockey65 06-04-2013 11:17 PM

No 6.2L for Regular Cabs.

Fen, great thread and thanks for all the info...

I have seen Captiva's driving around in Barcelona, Spain in 2011 I believe. Then about a few months later, the Ohio area. But when I look into the US GM site, no mention of these. Where are these coming from?

My wife wanted a small SUV to share the garage with my Camaro. To date, we have yet to find a small SUV with a plush interior and some HP/TQ. As of now, the BMW X3 is what she is looking at.

GM Planning anything like this? Thanks.
