I grew up with some really great All-American cars...'66 Continental, '69 Grand Prix, '68 Dart Sport, '70 Chevelle, '68 & '85 442s, '72 and '73 Cutlass Supremes. Those were awesome times but long gone now, and that's why we collect and restore all the great cars seen on this board...to preserve an important part of Americian history and culture. But with today's technology and global economy there are no more truly American-made cars, and unfortunately there never will be again. It's called change, and some folks have a tougher time adjusting to it than others. As for myself, I say so what if the new GTO is a re-badged Holden and the new Chryslers are Daimlers in disguise. It's bonus-time for me at work and my tax refund is right around the corner, and I guarantee I'll be buying an '04 or '05 GTO very soon. Not because it says Pontiac or GTO, but because it's a high-tech, freakin' performance machine. I will get the recessed grilles and it will of course be blue on blue just to pay tribute to my true passion, my TA.
