yeah i dont think gm will ever break the stigma they earned in the 70's through the early 90's, it will always haunt them. they dont make bad cars anymore but thats not the real problem, the real one is that there cars are, well ****ing boring. ford and gm have boring lame cars, yes they are good quality and little problems but they are butt. malibu? boring. impala? boring. monte carlo? boring. aveo? boring. HHR? blatent rip off. all buicks? boring. there saving grace as far as fun and excitement is cadillac and some others like corvette, gto (looks boring) SSR etc. ford is the exact same way, all boring except for too few. not that the imports are out of this world exciting but they all are, for the most part, styled freshly and up to date while most american car design is dated.
btw, one of the plants to get closed down is the one making the impala and its saturn cousin (it didnt say about the grand prix), and the one making the SSR, are those cars scrapped now or what?
