I think GM should take away from what Hyndai has done. I hate to say that but if GM wants to be the best in the world then have the Vette, and Camaro and trucks and then sell nice cheap cars that get 30 miles per gallon. When my wife bought here brand new Elauntra 5 years ago, think we paid out the door 17,000 after tax and everything. The car got 30 mpg, had a good amount of options and did what it was ment to do. Dont worry about building cars that are called SS and slapping a 415hp motor in them to only get 20mpg. Put out good size 4 door cars that get 30 mpg, have a 100,000 mile bumper to bumper warrenty, garuntee the drivetrain for life, Give tires for life option, and price it under 20,000 brand new with power everything, moonroof, ect. Thats what sells cars now. Always have the Vettes, Camaro's, Trucks, and a sporty sub compact car but make most of your cars in the 18-25,000 range.

My Dad is a prime example. He is retired and has been kicking around the idea of getting a new CTS. Problem is he loves his Hyndai Accent to much to get rid of it. He loves the 35mpg, and how simple the car is. He has always talked about getting a new Caddy when he retired. He has been retired since 2007 and he is still rocking his Accent. He can afford to buy a brand new CTV if he wanted and pay for it with cash but he does not want to anymore.
