Absolutely. A flagship superluxury for America would be a massive hit, especially if it kept it's particular style of luxury distinct from the other great powers. A joint effort between the big three to develop trickle down technology would make Rolls Royce and the like get nervous.

I'm not sure about that one in particular, but my idea of a supercar is increasingly based more on luxury than performance that I will never ever use. A truly pimped conversion van with captain's chairs and all would be pretty nice.

I'm pretty delighted whenever a seemingly demised car company decides to not go quietly into the night.

Easy. Any Restomod. Here is an insane Camaro example:

Odd thought; the V8 in the Lincoln is actually a Jaguar AJ-v8 because it would be difficult to fit a normal Ford V8 in with the suspension. The V6 version is actually the same v6 as a Taurus and thus, reliable, and also the only version available in manual. If a different v8 could be crammed, or the v6 swapped,

And that is long before you get to it's engine, which is the same V8 featured in the ever-dependable Jaguar S-Type

China actually has had a Buick thing for a very long time. The name has an incredible level of historical cache. That being said, I couldn't agree with you more on the rest of your post. I wish this guy picked a different method of complaint for this.

I can't imagine how stressful it must be to come up with an electric that can fight Tesla and make a good profit margin while most of you're corp R&D is getting burned on ICEs. It can cost some interesting amounts of money to start the production of a new vehicle even when it's based on something so similar. With

I met a guy who came in for service, a snow bird from Quebec as we Floridians call them. He had an old 80s hard top coupe that was absolutely stunning (looks awful as a convertible though). He had been bringing it in for service since at the dealership since he bought it and had it swapped to an LS1 from it's original

No, Chevy 350s do.

Well, the good news is Lu Guanqiu will be getting his wish. He's definitely going to be going bankrupt despite how gorgeous they are.

I'm pretty shocked that no one has mentioned the Allegro yet. It's by far the best, in my opinion. None of these are going to be going impressively fast, but that's great. For the five grand you were going to spend on several of these to get them in shape, you could have a really amazing and truly unique road trip

As someone who worked at a Jag dealership during part of his undergrad, in order to "maximize the conditions" of the engine, you should be prepared for an absurd amount of work. Or swap it for an SBC.

Historically significant vehicles are kind of tricky, especially when the marque itself is such a cult hit. If you're a Saab fan, it's perfect, the notchback, the story and the condition. If not, you're probably better off with a cheaper Saab for your Chevy V8 swap project.

Between this, the ATS and the terrifying new things coming out of Dodge, I dare say things are finally picking up in the American companies.

I tried Seat a few years ago during a vacation. Loved it, they seem to strip VWs down a bit and mostly worry about the engine awesomeness. Wonderful recipe, more companies should try it.

The joke is on you, we can't read.

There is something deeply tempting and deeply forbidding about the idea of buying a car that someone else has lovingly modified. Questions about it's reliability are hard to focus on when you are distracted by the fact that you have always wanted to do this.

Perhaps this is my imagination, but does anyone else feel like the body style has at least a few genes in common with an Audi TT?

I for one would love to see an old XJC (Remember those?), modded to the hilt with a new mill and heinous other additions. God what a gorgeous car. Perhaps even an updated Broadspeed edition. Avengers, anyone?
