Now they build this (prototype, granted), and some of you complain about it. Make up your minds. Unless you want GM to build more boring cars, don't complain when they get up the balls to consider building something like this. This car would not be for everyone. But that's the point. Our car companies need to realize they can't please all the people all the time. They need to do something that excites SOME people. And personally, I think this car is awesome.

As we can all tell from the comments here at LLN, loyalty (however misguided) is a big factor in purchasing vehicles. Old people are set in their ways so manufacturers need to interest the Myspace Playstation 360 crowd (see Scion). This would do it a hell of alot better than a Cobalt. Keep it below 20k and provide tons of factory customization/tuner options. A video game rally car is exactly what the domestics need.

Great to know GM has ppl like this working for them, hope this kind of aggressiveness, attention to detail and focus on the car's mission seeps into future GM products.
