Earlier in the week, a handful of images from General Motor's presentation to employees leaked onto the Web. The tiny pics provide a glimpse into the future of Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and Saab, as the General's spin-meisters try to console both Wall Street and consumers after Black Tuesday's depressing announcements.

Aside from GM's plans to reduce white-collar expenditures by 20-percent, eliminate salaried employee's health care after age 65 and a cut its way to liquidity to the tune of $15 billion by the end of 2009, Bob Lutz dropped the bomb that the current iteration of the Beat isn't coming to the U.S. and that the Chevrolet Cruze won't be immediately available to Stateside consumers after it debuts at the Paris Motor Show.

Regardless, the images give us a sneak peak at the stillborn Cobalt replacement, which features tautly drawn headlamps, deep swage lines and a grille that apes its big brother the Malibu. The Cadillac CTS Sportwagon features a massive D-pillar reminiscent of that found on the CTS coupe concept and taillights that stretch from the edge of the roof to the lower fascia. The Caddy SRX's design is precisely what's been predicted, while both the Buick sedan and Saab 9-4X – a supposed competitor to the BMW X3 – are hardly compelling.

now onto the pics...

I actually like every one

For some reason, I love the sportwagon??? But only if it is available as a "V" model.

I'm with you! Don't care about the V model though.

I like most of them .



My Cav
I give up...
i'm buying a VW those people love trees, so they should love eachother too... "Andy"

I like the Cruze but I was hoping the Beat would be coming too....

That Buick sedan looks horrible in my opinion. I'm loving the Cruze I must admit. The SportWagon reminds me of a Volvo from the rear.

mark me down for the cruze.




GO PATS!!!

I want the sportwagon!

decent showering, i like the cruze the best.
i think they could make it into a wonderful hatchback coupe... crossing my digits for that one

I can't believe the SRX is a re-skinned Saturn Vue...or at least looks like it is. That's a disgrace.

And the production Cruze better have those dramatic wheel well bulges or it's going to suck balls.
