the common bond that all these cars have are:
- J & N final years used ecotecs,
- all these cars were at least standard in base trim with a 4 banger,
- all these cars are universally rejected by v8/musclecar crowds
- all these cars are universally rejected by the regular 'tuner' crowd.

GM Tuners is a name that I think might work...
yeah it might be a bit of a rip-off... but meh ~ it fits.
West Coast Ecotec Fest? Lol

I might start coming up with a draft Day by Day events.
Bonnevilles used to meet up and run against Grand Prixs on their fest days.

Cruise, modding, meet n greet etc, car show etc.
