my next car will be most likely the terrain or equinox or even the caddy srx. I dont really like the styling of that thing.. it look more like a minivan thing..

It will probably be another 20 years before I can afford my next new car, so who knows what I'll buy....

I always thought a retro based on the 55 Nomad to replace HHR would be a winner. GM just needs the guts to build it. Too bad, I think there's always going to be a market for American styled retro. Maybe my next classic car will have to be the real deal..

I have stated a long time ago on the GM boards that the Orlando may replace the slot for the HHR buy GM will have to find about 60% new buyers for it. The HHR people just do not like it as a replacment.

We all bought the HHR as it is the ANTI Mini Van.

The Wife wants a Nox and I am not sure what will be out by the time I am ready to buy. A lot of changes are coming in the next 5 years and it is hard to choose a car that has not even been hinted at yet.

There will be some fun cool cars in the future but GM is tight lipped anymore since they do not have to keep stock prices up by showing long range plans.

I may be interested in a GMC Granite if it makes production with enough power to make it fun.

Or I would rather have a small pick up if they can replace the trashy Colorado.

These Mini Cross overs will do well as this unfortunatly is the trend in the market.

The sad fact is people no longer get excited by cars. They are more interested only in the price per month, warranty, and what electronics it has. Styling and performance are on the back burner for the average buyer anymore.

How do you think they have sold so many Camry's anymore? People just don't care what something looks like as long as if is not too weird.

I like it. I think the front looks better than the HHRS' front.
