We are getting some credibility and recognition, not sure if this is good or bad. But thanks to lll_Mac’s post on the FCA Vegas convention, Oppo has been recognized on Autoblog.

They have a story on the new stuff coming out of the dealer convention and have used lll_Macs post as evidence. Congrats to him and to all the Oppos who make such good posts everyday. Yay!!

HEY! Jalopnik divorced us! We’re not “Jalopnik’s” Opposite lock anymore!

It should be noted that while we’ve tried to rely on concrete sources or corroborations from multiple sources, some of the news here comes from people claiming to have been in attendance and posting in forums like Allpar and Jalopnik’s Opposite Lock . Unless corroborated by a mainstream source or confirmed by our own sources within FCA, we’re listing each item that comes from a forum. Have those grains of salt at the ready.

Don’t you just love to not be considered “mainstream” This is Oppositelock. No fucks given.

Yeah, we got plenty of attention when one of us posted pics of the Cadillac XT5 photo shoot, too.

None what so ever.

I don’t really consider us a “Forum” either but it was made quite clear we aren’t technically a part of Jalopnik anymore.

Just hope TTAC doesn’t pick it up or we’ll get a bunch of ninnies talking about how ex-rental 9th gen Impalas really are great vehicles.

Agree. But journalists seem to like to identify with J-nik now. Funny how things change with time and good reporting.

Yeah I remember when Jalopnik had the same amount of respect as opposite lock lol.

Just considered a blog or forum that pissed off all the car companies leaking their pictures.

I posted a reply paraphrasing what you said to autoblog. Just to let them know who we are now.

Automotive News claims the legendary Barracuda nameplate will be revived as a Dodge. The Barracuda will be smaller than Challenger, offered as both a coupe and a convertible. Allpar claims it will feature modern styling.

Calling it now as a rebodied 200.

I guess that now is the time to recreate all the old namplates. Before all the boomers can’t drive anymore.

If you don’t look too closely, it resembles an actual car interior. Plus: bench seat and column shifter!
