To celebrate all the accolades its vehicles have been receiving, General Motors will be going all-out in its exclusive, VIP-only, automobile-slash-fashion-slash-music extravaganza called GM Style on January 12, 2008.
You see, the Saturn Astra Tuer and Chevrolet Beat concepts are finalists for the North American Car of the Year; and the 2008 models of the Chevrolet Malibu and Cadillac CTS (I like to call Cadillacs “Cazzillaz” – let caddies sit and stay in golf courses, you dig?) are among Car and Driver’s “10 Best” list. More than that, my future Cazzilla has been named by Motor Trend as its 2008 Car of the Year.
Cast of characters include Mary J. Blige as perfomer, DJ Samantha Ronson as music mix-master, as well as the country’s top models wearing bling and fashion-y things from Marciano for Guess?, Mark Zunino, and Detroit’s very own Kevan Hall. And—get this—all the GM All-Stars will rip the runway along with the fashions in a head-spinning show set to music. Goodness, I gotta nab me an invite!
Thankfully, gm.com will simulcast the event for us folk who love our Cazzillaz (and love to do da nasty in it – I can’t wait to break in that sweet CTS with ma ladies…). To be held at the huge, climate-controlled pavilion just east of GM’s Global Headquarters, GM Style will also jumpstart GMnext—a series of activities leading up to the beginning of the corporation’s next 100 years (who da hell knew that GM is turning a century old by September 16 next year?)—as well as lead up to the largest legal orgy for car lovers: the North American International Auto Show.
Said Ed Welburn, GM vice president for Global Design:
“The momentum and excitement around GM Style is building quickly. It promises to be an evening in which the artistry of our vehicles, music and fashion converge in an exciting way for GM and for
Well, of course it better not be a dang disappointment! Stay tuned for more pre-party news. Till then, peace out!
