Good.

Unfortunately, the Government Motors jokes will stay around for a long time.

SAE paper accidentally leaks 8L90 8-speed automatic transmission for 2015 Corvette.

-Not confirmed but kind of expected.

It will be nice to see Lieutenant Dan leave.

Its also nice to see engineering being represented so strongly at the top of GM. Both Barra and Ruess hold engineering degrees and have spent a good portion of their time at GM in various engineering roles.

Hey Fen why doesn't Gm or Chevy recognize the anniversaries of the Suburban hasn't it been in production as a vehicle for over 60 or 70 years? I understand it isn't a enthusiast vehicle but I think it would be nice to have a special version of it.

Little off/on topic but, how scary is the prospect of a 600HP Z06 when the Base/Z51 are capable of mid 11s in a straight line already. I know it won't be a "straight line" car but still...

Eeek!

You mean like the 75th anniversary 'Diamond Edition' a few years ago:
