GM has some problems and it's got to sort them out. I don't blame GM for taking ABS off the Cavalier and Sunfire and those lesser models. I'm in construction/design... if you build a house with bad framing, you can't just reinforce it, you have to tear it out and repalce it. GM is doing that, tearing out all its old platforms and engines with the new Theta, Sigma, Epsilon, Lambda, and Delta platforms and Ecotec I4s, HighFeature V6s, and Northstar and Displacement on Demand V8s. Bob Lutz knows what's he's doing... in a few years I wouldn't be suprised to see a serious Accord and Civic competitor from GM. It won't be as good tho 
It's not the features and gizzmos and gadgets that I want in a care, anyway. I'll take an American car first IF they can make the engine vibration free, if the body panel gaps are seamless, if the stitching and carpet are uniform and consistant, and if all the plastics and interior parts are high quality and fit perfectly. They have yet to do that, and if they haven't learned yet, I doubt they ever will. It would cost too much money to do a complete retool, redesign, and reorganization of all the factories and design plants.
