General Motors – Page 40 – California Lemon Law blog

We mentioned it in our blog on July 13, that General Motors and eBay were looking into working together. Well it’s official, GM will begin selling new cars and trucks on eBay starting Tuesday. The program will be a way for buyers to receive discounts on vehicles without directly dealing with the dealerships.

Vehicles will not be sold to the highest bidder, instead it will be listed as a “buy it now” vehicle which would be equal to General Motor’s supplier price. Shoppers will also have the option to submit a lower bid that the dealer may or may not accept.

It will involve about 90 percent of G.M.’s dealerships in California. One of the reasons General Motors decided to start with California is because of poor performance in the state in recent years. As many as 20,000 vehicles will be listed on eBAy initially. The program will initially run through September 8, 2009. GM hopes to expand it throughout the country.

Honda’s remade Hybrid, the Insight, is not doing as well as originally predicted. It debuted in March and was thought to be a serious contender for Toyota’s Prius. Unfortunately the reviews have not been kind and sales have not gone well.

Many people are not aware that Honda was the first auto manufacturer to bring hybrids to the United States 10 years ago. Sources are not sure why Honda has not done as well and it seems other automakers are gaining ground such as Ford, General Motors, and Nissan.

Last month we learned that GM would be ending its joint venture, New United Motor Manufacturing Inc., with Toyota. Toyota is now going to begin discussions towards dissolving the venture with the “Old GM.” Toyota has been examining the US market after auto sales have been on the down side. Toyota is carefully looking at their options for NUMMI.

Toyota has said that the labor costs are not competitive with other plants in the U.S. such as Georgetown, Kentucky. The UAW has said that part of the reason for the joint venture was to have American employees learn Toyota’s methods of production, which are more efficient.

California represents Toyota’s largest market in the United States. California senators and House members are communicating with Toyota to see is they can keep the plant from closing.

General Motor’s has a hit with its new Camaro. The latest edition is a reminder of the old Camaro’s in its heyday. With its long hood and lots of grill it’s bringing people back to the showrooms. The basic model has a 6 cylinder engine and is priced well. The Camaro made its debut in 1966 and was dropped from the lineup in 2002. GM sold 9,300 Camaros during the month of June and actually outsold its rival, the Ford Mustang that month.

The targa-top Pontiac Solstice will be the last of the Pontiacs and after only a few months of production. Pontiac is scheduled to close production in 2010 and the Solstice coupe will be the last of Pontiac’s new models. With total production of only approximately 1,100 units when operations will end at the Wilmington plant in the end of July, the Solstice may become a collectors item. The coupes will be numbered sequentially so that it will be easy to determine which exactly of the 1,100 cars a collector may own. The GXP version has a sticker price of $31,000 and comes with a 4-cylinder 260 hp engine. One reviewer extolled the beautiful exterior but was disappointed by its relatively plain interior and by the relatively small size cockpit. He was further disappointed by the lack of convenient storage spaces in the passenger compartment and small luggage area. The reviewer also complained about the layout of the dashboard instruments and the wind and road noise. Despite its many faults, that particular reviewer found it to be a sexy little car designed by one of General Motors’ top designers who has subsequently left and is now employed by Tesla. The Solstice GXP seems to be a lot of sizzle but very little steak.

If your vehicle is always in the shop and the dealer is unable to fix it you may be driving a lemon. Call the California Lemon Law Firm of Delsack & Associates at 888-395-3666 (888-ExLemon) for a free consultation.
