Ford has been selling a sports car that is based on one of the most popular race cars of all time. This, however, is the Blackwood part 2.
Nobody is paying 300,000 for a cadillac.
“Agree to disagree. When the KL was first announced and shown, everyone was enthusiasts were pissed that they were ruining the XJ Cherokee’s good name (which they kinda did). Read more

Oh, look. A modern Laforza.
I actually don’t mind modern Bentley interior, I can dig the sweeping dash lines and Audi sourced wheel looks good. I expect certain brands to be a bit less daring on style, but this does look modern, if not a little boring in comparison to other brands.

Tesla across the board but since they are charging more for the Model X Read more
It’s interesting that the ZDX didn’t catch on considering the X6 took off around the same time, then MB followed suit, it spawned the X4, Audi is now into that game, and the whole crossover-coupe thing is a popular trend. Personally I think the ZDX is so much better looking than most current SUV ‘coupes.’
The most surprising part of the Crosstour/ZDX is that they are largely unrelated, as opposed to the obvious (but wrong) conclusion that the ZDX is just an Acura-badged Crosstour.

Reading comments with people saying their mortgage is <$1000 a month is alarming me. My California tax has my mortgage at $3700. Before HOA, insurance, gas, electricity, water, garbage.... oh god, and property taxes.
