Nuff said.

More European to American translations

The replacement for the European Vectra, the Insignia

The American equivalent, Buick Regal

GM got rid of the aptly named OldsMobile but I still have a hard time thinking of anyone younger than 90 driving a Buick. Perhaps they should stop renaming cars from sister non-domestic companies in favor of car names known and loved only by those who will soon forget their own names. GM, I would rather buy a Vauxhall or Opel than a Buick for no other reason than the fear of ridicule by my peers, (or anyone young enough not to have remembered the Truman administration). Besides I like the Vauxhall grill better.

2012 Astra

Now, we got the last Astra as a Saturn. With their demise, will we get this one? It would be a shame if we didn't. This could be one of the best looking Chevrolets in a long time. Or maybe we call it a Vauxhall or Opel?

Here's what really chaps my ass. We don't get some models of sister car companies from Europe but Europe gets 2 versions of the same car...

Opel Ampera

and Chevy Volt

will be competing head to head in Europe. And WHY does the European version always look better?!?!
Thanks again GM for the slap in the face!!!
