Great News! It’s the 2016 Chevrolet SS Malibu

Crap, I fear you’re right. We’ll be lucky if this has a 5ft-lb bump in torque :’(

Oh absolutely, the P1 is in an entirely different ballpark. But if you took all 3, parked them next to eachother in a walmart parking lot, and asked a random person who likely knows nothing about cars or what a “maclaron” even is, good luck explaining why one costs 3-5 times more than the others.

Relax pal, it was just an observation.

lol. Work in plant management a bit, then come talk to me.

Dunno, what I've always read on various budgeting sites and finance sites is between 25-35% of income. Of course if you go up to 50% or more it doesn't mean you're going to bankrupt. It's certainly possible depending on your life situation.

It's true. Though with Astons, I have a very very hard time telling them apart!

Fair point. Aston really needs to stop trying with these "hardcore" track specials and just stick to what everybody really wants out of an Aston; impeccable taste and good looks.

Meanwhile I'm so happy my company plants are union free now! Means people actually do good work and don't slack off with a BS safety net to save them :-)

I would absolutely buy this if it came to the US. No joke. Always liked the way the Veloster looked, just not the powertrain. If this is mid engine RWD/AWD, priced below 40k and weighs less than 3500lbs, I will trade in the BRZ immediately!

I'd be ok if the different models were actually very different. Now it seems more like trims, with different engines and slightly different body kits.

Well, if you go off the old "shouldn't buy a car that costs more than 1/3 of your salary" thing, I guess someone who makes around 500k a year instead of around 800k?

Yes, because your opinion is clearly the only one that matters.

Please educate yourself before trying to make someone else look foolish. Driveline is very much what it is called in the industry. And seeing as how I worked in the Driveline Syetems division of one of the largest makers of transfer cases and transmission components in 90% of cars, we call it Driveline, our…

Michael, what's new about this? Lego Technic has released multiple fully working manual transmissions in models since 1994.

Yeah, I don't understand the fascination over the lego manual gearbox. This is very far from a new thing...

Seriously. "Battle damage" only works on offroad 4x4s, not a road going sports car.

So basically what you're saying is it's guaranteed to happen.

No, I think he wanted you to post a picture of the PT, not the Beetle again.

It can even be a stance starter kit!
