My favorite remains the Ninja, for a silly reason: Once upon a time, when I was still a fresh driver and penalties would be harsher, I overtook what I only too late discovered to be an unmarked police car.

Legendary, but I never did like the styling.

LeDuc was clearly to blame. This was a serious event — he shouldn’t have been raising Cain.

JFC. She was clearly unconscious for a couple of seconds. Just went rag-doll when when her head hit the ice. You can see it in how her legs went *flop*, then how she jerks when she comes to. Even when she gets up, you can see her blinking in confusion. What if she had fallen again?

When your brand identity is dominated by styling that looks like it was focus grouped at Trump rallies, your brand identity needs some reflection and self-examination. I swear to God, somewhere in the focus-group verbatims you’ll find some comments about how having a giant-ass grille in someone’s hybrid’s rearview and…

you forgot the “/s” to let us know you are being sarcastic.

I drive a CX-5 and some are damn near my roof height, current F250 4x4 seems to be the worst offender presently though the new Chevy looks like will give it a run for the money.

That’s the only thing I will give Chevy credit for. At least their headlights are higher than the roof of my car like Ford.

The partner campaign “You don’t have to look at the exterior styling when you’re inside” will really drive the sales.

The state of car and truck grills in 2018 makes me genuinely worried that we will abandon the lower case letter in favor of writing everything in caps at some point in my lifetime.

I know the two are unrelated, but look at cars/trucks these days and tell me its not a possibility. 

They look like this because the kinds of people who tend to buy big-honkin- trucks... and no I don’t mean everyone- aka, people who actually use them for work- but rather those guys...

You forgot about the Overly Intense Headlights that shine in your back window day or night right at eye level for anything less intimidatingly tall. I have to shade my rear view mirrors with my hands so that I can see.

Look, i don’t think we should give car companies shit for trying to have a brand identity. Say what you want about the new Camaro/Silverado/Etc.. but you’re going to be eating your words when their new corporate slogan: Not just ugly, Chevy ugly takes off and really ties their brand identity together.

You had a good run.

If I couldn’t see the front grille or make out the badges, I would easily mistake it for a Hyundai. And not to trash Hyundai at all, but nothing about this car screams premium Euro-ride.

That’s...not really true. They’re rare and pretty enough that whenever I see one alongside non-car people, they ask me what it is. Alfa sounds weird and exotic, so it still holds some brand cache. 

Totally agree.

It’s not a bad price for someone who wants one of these. Almost “new” at 32% less than new is not bad, and still under warranty. However, I personally would pass. I’m not sure why but something about the Stelvio just looks “cheap” to me. Maybe it’s the lower trim that does it? I can’t quite place my finger on what it…

It’s not going to impress people who don’t know cars, and it’s not going to impress people who do know cars. But the warranty is good until 4 years/50k miles and it’s a lot of crossover for $31k. NP
