How timely. Velocity channel just re-ran the Wheeler Dealer episode on the Corrado VR6 last night.

My wife’s ‘09 Suburban with the cylinder deactivation, and the 6spd tranny, actually gets decent mileage for being a 3 ton monstrosity. 22 hwy fully loaded with the five of us and our luggage. I have to hand it to GM, they really have perfected the V8/4 technology and mated it with good transmissions to get the most…

Praying they build. Will park it in garage next to my CTS-V wagon, and finally have something I want to drive and stop putting miles on the V.

The problem is, any Joe Schmoe, who spent his adolescent years drooling over exactly three cars; Hennessey Vipers, Saleen Mustangs, and Callaway Corvettes... because those three tuners got all the glossy write-ups and were somewhat backed with dealer-level support. So, said adolescent grows up, gets a little coin,…

John comes to the local Ride ‘N Shine event here in Katy, TX fairly often (similar to a C&C event). Last month he showed up, along with his son, in the yellow Venom GT Spyder, and when they arrived it was like cows trailing a feed truck.... most everyone at the event rushed up and followed him to his parking spot.…

When photos of the first gen came out I didn't care for them at all, then I started seeing them out on the road and it grew on me. I think the Panamera is a fine car. Different does not mean ugly, and it certainly was a departure from the historical looks of a sedan. A slight evolution just makes it more beautiful.

No doubt the Jag XJR (or any Jag for that matter), is full of electrical gremlins... but I hadn't heard much about the drivetrain issues. What about the tranny is so bad on them?

The cup holder killed the bench seat.

Does Mitsubishi still sell cars here?

2nd Gear: Mitsubishi still makes/sells cars here?

I found this 3rd gear news to be more interesting than the whole Uber/autonomous stories. Surprised I had to scroll so far to find someone else mention it. Wonder how quality will be now with the same people having to contribute to all areas of the car rather than be specialized on certain parts. Overall I'm sure it's…

Agree and disagree. In urban settings there will always be a need for a true, regulated, taxi service. However, they do need knocked down a peg or two in regards to their pricing. For example, zoned fares to/from airport. It’s ridiculous to charge $75-$100 for me to take a cab from my house in Katy, TX to one of the…

I've always been fond of the Panamera also. Would like to park one in the garage next to the V-wagon if I could.

4th gear: Mitsubishi still sells cars?

The V-wagon seems to be a good all-around. Love mine, and Doug clearly didn’t toss it out as a bad example in his response.

Wait. Mitsubishi still makes cars?

Must be nice to have all that money and little sense.

Kill it with fire.
