    And this is coming from someone who never gets excited about anything but small Japanese sports cars.

    I'd drive that Blazer! I would maybe lower it though. ;)

    Porsche came out with an SUV.

    Why not Corvette? That would be interesting now, wouldn't it?

    Callaway does an interesting variation, called the Aero Wagon! :smile: This package is only 15k! Of course, you supply the Corvette! :smile:

    I saw the TV commercial on that Blazer a few times but never was paying attention.

    Then just the other night I watched it fully and thought, "It's about time GM got to styling their vehicles better". The Blazer gets a thumbs up on the style from me! I like that color too. Sports car red.

    Now how reliable will it be and is the ride comfortable and responsive and the dash intuitive for the driver?
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    I actually don't hate the new Blazer RS:

    Lambovette I'd presume?! I like how Chevrolet stole some lines from the F12 for the C7 but I don't know what they were doing on the C8. Not a huge fan of the styling so far. They will sell like crazy though for a long overdue ME.
