regarding unions: utter nonsense.

i don't understand why people are dismissing the CLA for being FWD.

cruise control. i do mostly urban driving, so i never use it.

Nissan's B platform:

The Renault, but only due to the BMW's insane price tag.

Turkey should be on here. sales taxes on new cars are based on displacement

Ford Motor Credit received substantial support from the Federal Reserve, as did Toyota, and BMW.

I'm a dude that feels your pain.

not to mention that one is paying Porsche money for a Nissan dealership experience.

Mercedes E-Class Coupe. it is based on the C-Class architecture, not the E. it is both smaller inside and slower than a BMW 4-Series, and costs $10,000 more.

No Dodge Spirit R/T?

Lotus Carlton.

no International Scout convertible?

I managed to fulfill my dream car wishlist by going to a classic car show in Paris.

At $25k it would be much cheaper than the VW CC and Nissan Maxima, and competitive with the unremarkable base ILX.

I'm going to have to disagree here with people panning the price.

no Smart CrossBlade?

at first glance, I thought "Ferrari", From the door-backwards there's quite a bit of R8 thrown in there (same platform?)

Smart Roadster-Coupe, preferably the Brabus edition.

this video reminds me: there is a private garage on Union Street in Park Slope that is filled with 1950s Renaults.
