So is that new cruze going to come in coupe form? Or still just the Sedan? When will the new cruze be shown later this year I assume?

A coupe is possible. If the reports about it being delayed are correct, we won't see it until next year.

Maybe they'll bring back an SS model of it? (well, bring back, you know what I mean...carry it over from the Cobalt to this new model)

I saw this on the Motor Trend app today.

The engine isn't the only thing Cadillac is undecided about; its name is up in the air as well. GM reportedly trademarked the name "LTS" (short for Large Touring Sedan) last year, but there's been a push within Cadillac lately to use actual names on its cars.

I am not liking the way the new generation Cruze is looking in camo. Hope it looks better when it's revealed.

Not official, but food for thought.

You didn't think that GMC's brand-saving profitability came from lower build costs, did you?

Eek, I hope not. The rear end of that render looks good, but I'm definitely not feeling the front end.

I saw the Colorado in person at the DC Autoshow this past weekend. Pictures don't do it justice.

I had the same feeling. I went to Detroit and saw both trucks and spent most of my day staring at the Colorado. Now that I haven't seen it in a week, I find myself looking at nothing but Canyon pics. The pictures of the Colorado just don't do it for me, but I know when I see it again in person I will love it.
