Isn't there a new SLC coming out? No louvers in the C-pillars though,
that would really be the right touch if they wanted to reference the

The Chevy HHR is on that retro look list too. It's a solid little car with

Consumers Reports surveyed 425,000 owners of models from the last three years.
The question was would you definitely buy or lease the same model again?

Minis have always been popular. My gf had 5 or so of them, the first
