what the fuck?! Jesus. Further proof that our education system has been in need of further funding and for a long time. Where in the hell do people get the notion that its just fine to run trucks through hotel lobbys?

Ford Credit took close to $16 billion in bailout money and since Ford credit is owned by Ford motor company I’d say that counts as a bailout...

Agreed 70%

Can you say.... Mechanical nightmares? No thanks. Even if someone gave me this car is very quickly be seeing how fast I could sell it.

Here’s why I think many are somewhat concerned over the prospect of a Chinese Buick in the US: Historical perspective. We’ve seen this happen before. I happen to collect and restore vintage radios, sound systems, TV sets and electronics from the 30’s-60’s. From the 30’s- the early 60’s almost all of the electronics

One of the better NP cars of late IMHO

until you burn yourself on the exhaust.

It was a thing. And the front looks like a vacuum cleaner from the same era too

This makes me wonder if this pre-existing “ no fail” culture at VW was what contributed to the brand’s dismal quality problems. Get the car out the door no matter what. That sort attitude is what leads to severe quality issues.

The seats in that pic looks like they’re covered in burlap.

Is it just me or does every single Volkswagen CEO and executive look like they have a major case of constipation?

Honest answer: 80’s Dodge reliant “K” car. Like the one in Planes Trains and Automobiles.

Is the car worth it? Not to me anyway. Then again I found her music to be really annoying.

Aren’t the 3800’s the ones with that awful plastic intake manifold? I knew a few people with 90’s era Buicks with those engines and several had issues due to that feature. My Grandmother does have a 97’ Lesabre with a 3800 which has managed to make it to 175k but man the rest of the car is falling apart. That said she

Same response as usual: about 3/4 of the cars here are cars that will negate their value the second something goes wrong... which is gunna happen a lot on these...

Then you must be a hipster then. There ya go!

Hipsters here in the U.S. Would buy the shit out of these. Thus I'm not sure why these cant be sold here

That is one seriously strange looking ship.

The worst part if I can’t help but think that this is too little too late. The commute to and from work ( SF Bay Area ) has become so bad that I’d be willing to wager that even a 50% increase in freeway wouldn’t help. Most of the system here was built in the 50’6-60’s and not much has happened since. The infrastrucure

The fumes were from me farting.
