Have to put my .02 in here. I am in the used car business so I get to drive a lot of cars. I personally own a 00 Silouette and I think its the perfect example of what has been wrong with GM. Ours has 95K runs and drives OK. No major mechanical problems other than the TCC solinoid that was a PITA to replace. The problem is its just a cheap feeling piece of crap. The headlight projection is the worst I have ever seen. the interior fit finish and feel is junk. Driving it you just feels worn out. It seems like I will be lucky to get another 20K out of it before it falls apart. The original MSRP was 30,000 on the car and I would be lucky to sell it for 3,500.00
By contrast I have an x-loan car I drive home quite a bit. 2000 Lexus RX300 original MSRP is 33,000 and I could wash it and throw it out on the lot and get 10,000 with in a week. This car has 92K but still rides and drives excellent. Its still tight and nothing feels like it will fall off in your hand when you touch it. Driving it you would think its ready for another 100K. Its just sad if you ask me.
