Well...let's help them out, what do YOU want in a vehicle?
I'll start. I want something that's cheap, easy, and simple to maintain. I want something that's going to last more than 7 years by a factor of 10. I want something that doesn't need to be taken to a dealership for parts or repairs every 50,000 miles. I want something that's inexpensive to insure, inexpensive to purchase, and I want something that's safe. Which means it won't crumple up and crush like a beer can (aka Geo's first thingamabob). I want something large enough to carry my wife, my two kids, and at least 3 of their friends.
It wouldn't hurt if it looked patriotic enough to represent a middle finger to all the Liberals out there (the majority of which are anti-American).

I was a GM fan, even a stockholder. They lost me. I liked my '92 Saturn and loved my 75 Camaro, but that was a while ago and they seemed to be the exception to otherwise poor quality GM cars. It will take a lot for GM to win me back. I love my 4WD S/C Toyota Tacoma. Built for Americans by Americans in California. Trouble free, fun to drive...definitely not a GM product!

Except for the large part, you've just described every GM we ever owned (the one we have right now is 9 yrs old and has 180,000 miles on it only 1 major repair, and that was just last month). But the last new car we bought was a Toyota Corolla. We bought that when GM wanted almost three grand more for a similarly equipped Prism. Sorry GM. Love your product, not your price. Get it down and we'll be buying GM again.

what do YOU want in a vehicle?Well since you asked. I want what I've always driven. It has to have a V-8, sportscar preferrably, American made if possible. It has to have at least 350 HP, do standard sub 5 0-60s, run at least in the 11s on the quarter. That's about it. And yes it also has to be convertible, and not a Chevrolet

A blonde in a short skirt whose vocabulary does not include the word "no". ;o)
