Well...Micheal Jackson is dead. So is Billy Mays. Subarus are now lame. Hyundais aren't. Pontiac is no more. They made another Fast & Furious movie. Not sure what else. Its 1:00 and I'm tired.

you forgot : were all part owners of GM, Mcdonalds now sells fruity cappuccinos,East Coast Mojo was cleared as a suspect in the death of Billys Mays, theres gonna be a killer sweet AWD hybrid fiero at the challlenge, California is broke, Flyin Miata makes aftermarket sunroof racoons,, Pers got a new Vdub to play with, theres a new GTR that is the awesomest finicky overweight pig ever, and Where the FMI is now overseas kicking arse, taking names and keeping us safe.

Things that havent changed: Football players are still getting in trouble, GM is still guilty of badge engineering, Ford still wont bring cool cars to the states, the best corvettes are still too expensive for normal people to own, My spanish vocabulary is exactly the same as in 2006, Datsun 510s are still cool, and suddards still reaaaalllly like beemers

As things change they remain the same.
Still not many efficient small diesel cars in the US.
Still no lightweight RWD coupe in the US but the Genisis Coupe is getting closer.
