I mean, obviously, it looks great. It’s Ferrari. I still think the 458 and the 458 Speciale, with those N/A engines, are the best. I’m not including such classics as 308, 328, and The Testarossa (might be favorite), cars you’d typically see in Magnum P.I. or Miami Vice. I don’t know if I’d place the 458 above those…

1st Gear:

I love what Volvo is doing. I love all their models, except for this one. The exterior reminds me of the other luxury SUVs which are shaped like Coupes (the BMX X6, for instance). Not a fan. That type of design is so so fugly.

I love all the Volvos. Every single model. This one...I’m not crazy about the shape. It’s that ugly SUV coupe shape. Granted, it’s not a Volvo problem. BMW X6 is fugly. MB makes something similar and I’m sure there are other examples out there. 

Fascinating! So, not quite like a 911 (ride). Did not expect that. So..maybe like a midsize luxury car/SUV from Audi, MB, BMW, etc... or not even that? Like I gotta think it’s definitely more comfortable than your typical “economy car” from Kia, Hyundai, Chevy, Ford, etc.. no?

Good review. Better than the major mag reviews which usually are dry and filled with rarely used words sifted from Webster’s Dictionary.

Why oh why does every auto reviewer complain about infotainment response times? Jesus. My infotainment system is not the fastest but I’m not tapping my foot waiting there like it’s a Windows ME PC to boot up. Are you playing games on the thing? Are you touching and swiping every fucking second of your drive? I get in…

Over at GM Authority, they claim the next generation of the CT6 will ride on a new platform. Their the only ones to report this news. Is that rumor or fact at this point? GM/Cadillac is so chaotic that it’s hard to tell what their plans are year-to-year, let alone month-to-month.

This is the one time the Pats didn’t have to resort to cheating and got that happy ending fair and square.

I didn’t know there was another Gaza Strip on the Moon!*

fuck.

People spew all kinds of stuff online, just like this. Some of them are smart enough to not reveal themselves to the world. Others..not so much. If you’re gonna spew all that stuff online, don’t be stupid enough to use your real name and face and tie it to your Facebook and where you work and have more photos of you…

The markets around the world and the value of the British sterling pound, post Brexit, will be quite interesting. Hopefully, not too interesting. Really don’t people to suffer on any side of this debacle.

God, that is one sexy wagon.

Yes, very true, on everything you stated above. Great point on the cell phone.

So the moral of the story is sugar is bad for you and substitute sugar is also bad for you.

I didn’t think of that. Quite interesting. That’s actually not a bad idea at all (presuming the person knows what they’re doing, of course).

The other shoe has to drop at some point, right? I was in the video game industry for a time, fyi. As a developer, it brings me joy to know my handiwork accomplished something and people are benefiting from it in some form or fashion. But at the end of the day, none of that shit matters if you’re killing yourself,…

Yeah, that’s a good point, re: Europe. I think if Lincoln does move forward with sedans, only option for production is China. IIRC, the Focus was to be built in Mexico but now it’s all China because even the Focus crossover vehicle was cancelled for N.A.

That’s great. Yeah, What a fantastic car. And N/A, to boot!
