On principle I’m with you on that, but Citröen is actually one of the few car makers that tries break from this trend of undistinguishable designs. I don’t like the vast majority of modern cars, but I can’t help but love cars like the C6 and the first gen. C4 Cactus. I don’t love their current fascia designs but their…

Here’s the rear of my 64 that I sold about 10 years ago. It was absolutely stock when I bought it with only 55,000 miles. I had to look it up because I remember thinking it was a 63 when I first saw it due to the “pope nose” license plate light. It has clear front turn signals and pinstripe upholstery. It had never…

My first thought was a Previa, just because it has a retro-futurey look to it. I feel like a bone stock could be in the original Total Recall and not look out of place.

The only correct answer. 

First Generation Toyota Celica.

Did it turn sexual at all? Because “Hey we spoke at the same event and we’re connecting around political involvement” is a thing that happens on Tinder too? I’ve made friendships off dating apps - it’s not like they met through Recon.

Not sure how you figure the numbers, but Infiniti sold a total of 155,506 cars last year across EU, US, and Chinese markets to DS’ 53,851 in just EU and China. Infiniti beat DS in China 35,035 to 1,254, and DS beat Infiniti in EU with 52,597 to 2,763. I’m no statistician, but those figures don’t really spell success…

Maybe they could make a new Facel Vega

Almost had a little cry when I read this. 

4 words that speak a harsh reality.

The problem is that wages have been stagnant for the lower/middle classes for decades, so vehicles have gotten prohibitively expensive even though their prices may fall inline with inflation.

Its a poor move for Honda to absolutely give up on the sub 18/20k market, to not have some sort of presence in the entry level segment. I get that they were likely operating on the margins, and that it made little financial sense, but... I’ve been buying Hondas my entire life, a half a dozen Civics, a Prelude, Accord,…

being poor is expensive

As Harry, ‘Rabbit’ Angstrom put it in ‘79:  “This is a Corolla,” Harry says, slapping orange tin. “The two-door model begins at thirty-nine hundred and will give you highway mileage up to forty a gallon and twenty to twenty-five city driving. I know some other makes advertise more but believe me you can’t get a better…

I saw a third generation two door hatch Hyundai Accent in traffic today and I was like “I miss those.” And then I shook my and was like “What the fuck is wrong with me?” And then I realized I miss small cheap cars. I miss variety.

I found an old video of traffic I took in 2006 on a camera my family just got. And…

No, they are not. For what’s it worth I still love the TC and I cried bloody murder when Toyota Japan HQ decided to dismantle Scion. They weren’t trying to hear shit from us dealers though. A basic, cheap sub-brand sounds great right about now, doesn’t it?

Because they can get affordable financing with very little down on these new cars. Hard to get an 8 year loan on an used car, and buy here pay here charge an arm and a leg on financing.

Maybe it’s the whole forbidden fruit thing, but I just hate that Ford pulled the plug on Fiesta before we got the new generation.

Sedans sell fine, they just don't have the same margins. Whoever figured out they could charge $5,000 more for most of the same parts was an evil genius.

You’re really dissing this by comparing it to a Hummer. I’d take one of these over a Hummer any day, even at the same price.
