We’re LIVE at 6:30PM ET talking about the offbeat side of automotive news.
RoundAbout is a podcast devoted to the weird, under-reported and humorous side of automotive news and car culture. Each week, our crack team of contributors picks an automotive theme and gathers to talk about the news items and whatever else they can contort to fit that theme. We also talk about what new (or old) cars we’ve been driving each week, check out the latest viral videos and look at hot new auto gadgets.
This week we’re joined by Chris Preuss, Executive Vice President at Hill & Knowlton Strategies and former chief of OnStar and former VP of GM communications. Suffice it to say, you can expect a lively discussion. Per usual we’ll get into the news of the week including the strong sales numbers in the first month of 2012, brash Chinese rip-offs and the 50th anniversary of 24 Hours of Daytona. We’ll also talk about whether Opel has any chance at all of surviving. All this and more with John McElroy and Peter De Lorenzo the Autoextremist.

He also wrote the well-known book “Porsche: Excellence was Expected.” On the docket tonight, we’ll discuss some European goings on. Who will Fiat merge with? How will GM save Opel?
