Toyota did just fine with no Supra or anything else of late-well, at least until the past few weeks. GM should have made this move long ago to cut costs.

That really sucks for enthusiasts, but probably the right move to make. I think GM really needs to worry about public relations since the bail out. We'll see if that is a good or bad thing in the next few years.

I think we all want the General to make a comeback.

Good. GM's lost their heads.

However, GM's got a little hope - Holden's HSV in Australia who makes hopped-up versions of the Commodore...
