Grammar Edit The last sentance in the article said Although these inexpensive cars fewer options for aftermarket parts than other compact cars, there is a small group of owners who modify Storms to increase their performance^[1].

I am rewording this to say There is a small group of owners who modify Storms to increase their performance^[2], despite the fact that they have fewer aftermarket parts than other types of compact cars. I believe this improves the flow because .1) It avoids using the word "cars" twice in the same phrase .2) avoids refering to the storm as a "sport compact", thus avoiding useless flamewars. If you dislike this wording, please explain why below Evenprime 19:30, 2 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have reviewed and copyedited this fine article. --SFoskett 21:21, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

SteveBaker,

You edited the geo storm page on 21 December 2005, changing it to say that the geo storm is heavier than the mini cooper. The figures that Yahoo has for the 2005 mini (for both the manual and the automatic transmission) are heavier than the storm.

http://autos.yahoo.com/newcars/mini_cooper_convertible_2005/15801/style_specs.html?p=ext
2005 Mini Curb Weight (Manual Transmission) 2700
2005 Mini Curb Weight (Automatic Transmission) 2734

http://www.isuzuperformance.com/isupage/hist/specstorm.html
1992 Storm GSI Curb Weight 2,480 lbs
1990 Storm (base model) Curb Weight 2,480 lbs

Please site your sources for the weight of the mini

Thank you. Evenprime 00:16, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

SteveBaker is not responding, so I'm going to take out the comment about the Geo Storm weight which I believe to be erroneous. Evenprime 19:21, 24 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

featured article

I think it is safe to say that this is a featured article, judging by the comments. --Karrmann

Please leave the decisions to community concensus and the featured article director, User:Raul654, who keeps this sort of thing organised. You've been reverted twice and informed that this isn't a featured article. Thanks. Rob Church 16:21, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

BETTER PICS

There are plenty better pictures of our cars. and I would like them to be put on this page rather then one that is missing a center hub cover. [IMG]http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h294/chances_storm/MODIFIEDGSIWITHNEWRIMS-1.jpg[/IMG]

Though I agree the main page could use a better picture, the object is to provide a historical stock image of the car, not a modified car slammed on dubs  -Jgregg 21:14, 9 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Still on the Road" section

It's odd. Practically every car ever mass produced is still on the road in some fashion.

The paragraph makes it sound like theres tons of these around. The fact is that I haven't noticed one in quite a while, and a quick search on eBay as of 1/08/08 12:48 EST, theres one on there, for "parts or repair.

I'm not "hatin" on it. As a car associated with GM, though not quite a GM product, I think it was a good car in it's time, but like any other FWD, 4 cylinder gasoline car over 15 years old, theres not many of them around. 24.185.28.136 (talk) 05:50, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
