We start of episode #56 of the Autoblog Podcast discussing the
Pontiac G8, of which Rick Wagoner had just pulled the cover off in a clip of ABC World News Tonight. While the thought of a rear-wheel drive
Pontiac sedan is the hotness any way you cut it, not all of us were down with the face transplant the
Holden Commodore received to become the
G8. Next we took
Toyota to task for its decision to
price the Tundra above its domestic competitors, a bold move that could easily backfire. Speculation by Peter DeLorenzo that the next generation C7
Corvette may include a limited run of a
mid-engine Corvette exotic-killa also got some air time. Finally, we just had to take AutoCar to task for its claim that
Subaru is going to
axe the WRX model from the
Impreza lineup. Dropping the model that started the street-ready rally car craze in which Subaru's competiting with
Mitsubishi seems like pure folly to us. Hope you enjoy the 'cast!
