#95 of 97 Re: New Astra is not coming [creakid1] by mark19 May 17, 2009 (3:28 pm)
Replying to: creakid1 (May 17, 2009 2:21 pm) creakid1- thanks for the info, yeah i'm not surprised. GM has never done anything for the US-market. So why be surprised that once again they don't bring the good stuff here. I really think that Ford will be the success story with the new Focus.   Oh did you hear that GM will be shipping Buicks made in China to the US, after they closed our american factories, yeah let's keep supporting a company that says "Buy American" but yet they make it in China. Toyota and Honda actually make cars in America and can say they are.   So once again I'm not surprised that GM won't be doing anything right in the US. They haven't in the last 30 years why would they start now? Replies to this message: creakid1 (Jul 13, 2009 9:58 pm)

Well not quite. The steering is light and lacks the feedback of a Focus."
