I am really curious about this one.

I happen to love GM vehicles, but I do like other cars as well. What I dont understand is why so many people absolutely hate GM. I drive a 97 Camaro Z28, so my experience is mostly with performance oriented vehicles, and it seems like in that crowd, imports lovers are especially against GM cars. I dont know how many of my import friends have sorta looked down on my car because its a Chevrolet....and then I proceed to blow them away (accceleration and handling, by the way).....after which my favorite response---> "Its just a Chevy."

Seriously tho, if you are going to say "Because they are pieces of shit" dont even bother posting in this thread. I dont want to hear about it. That is a completely unsubstantiated claim. VALID REASONING ONLY. If you want to say "Because I dont like they way they look"...OK I can understand that.

Honestly, "I dont like the way they look" is the only reason I can see to hate GM, at least from a performance standpoint. Maybe "Well my cousins sisters boyfriend drove a Chevy for a couple years and it was a piece of shit" lol

I dunno...help me out on this one guys....
