To me the Vette shows almost everything that's wrong with General Motors Corporation. The word is ... "ossify". It's one thing to stick to tradition, but if we all wanted stuff from our earlier years we'd probably be driving Checkers Marathons.

I've always loved the Vette too, especially the split rear-window 1962. But to buy one in 2009 is to tell this giant company it doesn't HAVE to evolve. To me there is just no reason in the universe they shouldn't have this Volt out on the street already -- two weeks after announcing it.
