GMI's Revitalization In Action

This site is really cool and they do an awesome job. The discription is below, but they basically redo GM's line-ups with what they think would work. GM should just hire these guys and just call it a day.

http://www.gminsidenews.com/naias/revitalization/

Welcome to the home of GMI's Revitalization In Action. Produced by GMI Staff Member ChevroletRevived (Director/Writer of RIA), GMI Member George Loizou aka fbodyrules (Vehicle Exterior Photoshop Artist of RIA), GMI Administrator NSAP (Vehicle Interior Photoshop Artist of RIA), and GMI Member Nick Wilcox aka Camaro_Freak (Website Designer of RIA), the purpose of these exercises is to show just how much potential GM's future lineups can and should have. The 5th lineup in the series, Chevrolet, has just been launched and can be reached via the link above and to the side. Stay tuned to the web's No. 1 GM information source, GMInsideNews.com, for future editions of Revitalization in Action!

Chevy Nomad


Vette


Caprice


Buick Roadmaster


Pontaic G8


Firebird


GTO


Saab 9-1


9-3


9-9X


Saturn Astra


Sky


Aura

The G8 has become a reality.

The rest of them look like ass.

"Mommy, is it true that all of GM's new cars took inspiration from Transformers?"

The Caprice, GTO, Aura, and Roadmaster get my seal of approval. The Vette and Firebird.... not so much.

I kinda like the firebird front end but the rear looks too close to the original...

The sky just looks like the current corvette with no roof...

The Roadmaster is nice

EDIT: Wow so thats how GM sees itself

Chevy vs Honda/Toyota
Buick vs Lexus/Infiniti
Cadillac vs BMW/Mercedes
Pontiac vs Nissan
Saab vs Audi
Saturn vs Volkswagen

I feel sorry for Acura, nobody takes them seriously.

Hell they don't take them selves seriously. No RWD cars in a luxury line-up = fail. And that's exactly what is happening.

Personally I don't like any of those. I mean, some are okay looking, but nothing that stands out in a good way.

I am curious to know why they designed some of the larger vehicles in a FWD/AWD format instead of RWD/AWD.

It must have to do something relating to the platform/chassis/unibody design GM currently employs.
