That's a nice car, but that's a crazy amount of money

It's almost funny that they are wasting their time (IMO) making a car that very few people will ever own, but yet they quit making the cars that amlost everyone wanted and was still affordable...No wonder GM isn't doing so good these days....

Yeah, I agree. They can make a car they'll probably sell less than 1000 of.. but they can't make me a damn Firebird.

GM is over-extended. They are trying to sell to many lines of vehicles and its hurting them badly.
