Looks nice. http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/12/29/2...#more-4594

Interesting that MacNN now has a car section. Kinda like it.

Why does Chevy think they need the same grill style on virtually every vehicle?
This design started with the Tahoe and it's trickling down to almost everything else.
Rear-end looks like the Cobalt.

I just love the tambour door. Just like my 442 had. But, all the nasty bits get stuck in the ridges of a tambour door.

Wow! That car looks realllly.....nondescript.

A what door?

How can you tell it's a door? I don't see any pictures with it open, it could be decorative.
I see the little indention in one camera angle but can't imagine it rolling up that close to the
shifter but this is GM.


[quote Dakota]A what door?
A Tambour door is like the door on a Roll-Top Desk.

Tambour Console = Crumb Catcher.
Dumb in the 1960's, dumber now.
If it does slide, it is toward the back.

Tambour Door.:
a sliding flexible shutter or door on a piece of furniture, made of strips of wood attached to a backing of canvas.

I actually like the look of it. If it looks that good at the car show, or when it is available, it might well be my next car

I don't like the grille or the Cobalt finish.

The profile is almost... likable.

I do like the trambour door. Easy to avoid crumbs- don't eat in the car, and buy a dust buster.

Really, the grille has got to go.

they have the doors on their other stuff, too.
