RFD Cool Wall: Car #28 - General Motors Minivans

[puff_daddy_58_99]

Thanks to all who voted last week, here's the cool wall updated with the s-class as the newest entry in the cool category;



It was requested last week that we throw a minivan up on the cool wall, which is a good idea if not just for some variety. This week's entry is really 1 car with 4 different names and badges attached to it; the Saturn Relay, Buick Terraza, Pontiac Montana SV6, and Chevrolet Uplander. At the heart (and in fact, in 99% of the materials) these are all the same minivans, which are then rebranded for each of the different product lines in General Motors. Cool? You decide.



As always voting will end next saturday so vote early. Also, if you have a request for a car you want to see on the cool wall, send me a PM.

I was thinking more along the lines of a Sienna or Odyssey or Mazda 5 but thanks for getting the variety in

GM marketing chief: "The GM Uplander is a "higher" model than the Toyota Highlander!"

The Renault Espace F1 would beg to differ, haha

finally someone figured it out!!!

don't worry though, the cool wall will be back to normal next week. I'm thinking it's time for the Impreza and the Brera to join the cool wall.
