Same shit over and over again:shrug: Let's just see what the future brings. More and more new cars are coming and we haven't even seen the effects of the Solstice and Sky yet. Only 2 cars yes, but they will open eyes for GM again:yup:

how will the solstice and sky resurrect gm? i think the public is now getting to know how improved GM's new cars are. GM sells a lot of cars, problem is their overhead is too high. if they could just fix that, they'd be very profitable keeping their sales at the current level.

That wont help at all, other contracts and obligations are just to high/expensive. More sales wont get them into this mess, its actually what got them into it in the first place with the mass discounting.

Do any of you guys read

They predicted this when GM first started down this path. They even said that once GM goes down that road they would have to continue it just to sell what they had. And GM tried to stop it and sales languished so GM was forced to bring it back.


Sad story but GM has no one to blame for the massive discounts but them selves.

I also blame Japans artifitialy low yen and think stronger sanctions should be placed against their imported cars.

I don't pretend to be an analyst so I could be very very wrong. But when you look at it we buy tons of their imported cars (america in general, I don't own any imported cars) and what do they buy from us?
