![]() But the XLR was still a sales flop, failing to excite both the Cialis oldies and the Escalade newbies. Since the average Corvette buyer was in their mid-50s and the ‘Vettes of the day were only getting more hardcore and back-breaky, why not make something a retired golf-ist might enjoy? Seems like a solid pitch. It’s not difficult to see GM’s thinking with the XLR. Gather 'round children and let me tell you about the time GM made a luxury Corvette, and incidentally, the last convertible Cadillac. If ever an entire generation of cars were an allegory for capitalism, it was in the ‘00s. So many on this list feel like a defiant western hoorah - cheap, loud, bold, classless - with lives abruptly cut short by a crisis triggered by shortsightedness and greed. So many ‘00s cars boomed, then busted… and then disappeared. Still, so few vehicles can escape the time in which they were created and lived. Seeds were planted in the ‘00s for what would be the true golden age of sports cars, muscle cars, hot hatches, and even SUVs here in the ‘20s. The Dodge Caliber is the worst car I have ever driven.īut the ‘00s was also the dawn of the millennials and the return of engineers to the helm of development. The bean counters and boomers still reigned supreme forcing nostalgia-bait trash like the Chrysler PT Cruiser and Chevrolet HHR into the market. No growing pains.Īnd true enough there was a lot of truly boring, humdrum crap from the 2000s. Most will mark the return to sports performance in the early 90s… but then mentally jump to the ultra-high performance of today with nothing in between. The 2000s tend to get written off in the minds of automotive enthusiasts. Some, actually quite interesting, awesome and nothing if not indicative of their place in time. The election of the first African-American U.S. In between were two ethically dubious wars. A cataclysmic event which wiped out livelihoods and savings, and which saw some of the oldest nameplates in American automotive disappear forever. When we were forced to accept that history was not over as the previous decade had predicted. I was skeptical at first, but after seeing the results I would recommend this product to anyone.The 2000s as a decade can be defined by two key, tragic events. This paint did a fantastic job, exact metallic match. We had to replace and repaint our daughter's car hood. Your product is an excellent color match for both of them. We have used your product twice over the past year on two different vehicles. Donna H, owner of a 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt from Moreno Valley, CA Used the paint to repair some road rash on bumper, was unsure how it would turn out, but looks pretty good when completed and I still have money and paint left. James H, owner of a 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt from Shelbyville, KY The color matched perfectly and made the scratches less noticeable than what they were. ![]() I ordered the paint pens to match my car to fill in some scratches. Rebecca S, owner of a 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt from Middletown, OH ![]() Wet sanded again and polished up with cutting compound and a few coats of wax and voila, you have to look really hard to see any damage. Used the same brush to apply gloss coat and again left to harden for another few days. Left it to harden for a few days then wet sanded the slight extra paint that was not in the scratch. Thank you! James R, owner of a 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt from Walnut Cove, NCĪfter somebody keyed the side of my Chevy Cobalt, every panel on the drivers side, I bought the Urban Green and gloss coat and touched it in with a very fine artist brush. With your product & would recommend it to my friends & family. It was easy to apply and you can't tell that I did any touch up. The paint matches exactly as specified and I also purchased the clear coat sealer. I recently ordered some touch up paint for my 2010 Silver IceĬhevrolet Cobalt.
