I have offered $2017 in case the deal with the frenchies collapses.

Reuters sez: General Motor’s (GM) stock rose in early trading following news that the US automaker is in talks with French carmaker PSA group over the potential sale of its European Opel division. The deal could be announced within days....

Opals can fetch as high as $15,000 a carat. That's a flawless Black Opal of course, of the Lotus variety I am assuming.

All you Buick Cascada owners are going to be left high and dry after Peugeot buys that Polish Buick/Opel factory. Both of you should be upset.

I sat in one at the autoshow. First of all, holy cow were there a lot of buttons. And not in a good way. Second of all... I have a tall torso. I could have rested my chin on the door with the window down. Funky seating position.

I did a lot of work on the new Opel Astra hatchback and thought it was actually pretty cool.

This does raise questions of where GM plans to take the Buick brand. Probably not to a place I care about...

It's my understanding that Buick is big in China.
