LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

its a misprint. the motortrend article states it has 248lb/ft of torque at 2100rpm. Looks like a nice ride and RWD

Australia saves GM once again. they've been out at the dealer by my work, look pretty slick, and actually aren't that big looking in person. i'd rock one.

I like the Holden badged version much more, but I generally feel that way with most pontiacs nowadays. I can't wait till we the the Commodore Ute, hopefully they don't fuck up the styling too much.
