Damn right. Love my GTI but I won’t update or upgrade to another VW until they do.
Waiting for VW to update their GTI/R with buttons instead of the haptic ones.
It won’t fall out of favour. You just have to look at the reasons people are buying SUV’s to understand why.
I think I kinda like the new one best
Unintended Accel story: I BENEFITTED from this BS because the price of all used Audi’s dropped like a stone at this time. I was in the market to replace my Fiat X-1/9 as a daily and found a 1981 Audi GT Coupe for around $3500. When I went to look at it I thought the seller had either the wrong car in the drive way or…
Agreed. I was never a big fan of Nissan’s “v-motion” grilles they stuck on everything. It always looked forced to me, like they wanted something, anything, as a uniform product design element a la the Lexus “spindle body” or the Kia “tiger nose”.
I saw a comment somewhere else describing the GT-R as having an “old-school feel” to how it drives. That really speaks to how much the industry has changed in 15 years, because for the first several years of its existence the GT-R was the posterboy for horrific, numb, computer-controlled, total disengagement from…
Taking a page from the Challenger/Charger playbook. I guess if people still buy them, why not?
Can you imagine having bought one a week ago? It’s one thing for that pair of AirPods you bought last week to now be on sale for $50 less, but thirteen thousand dollars is on a whole other level of buyer’s remorse.
Gotta be kidding. This is just a runner or a scrapyard car. It’s not a $6000 starting point. It’s not even a $6 starting point. The seller didn’t even bother to clean it. And neither would I. Just give it away if you don’t want it.
ND - Dented, ripped and looking like a $40 motel room after a trucker’s party. Rare but almost dead is how I see this sad Audi. It’s a $2,000 car for someone who craves it, at best.
This seems pretty cool. I’d drive one, but I’m sure it’s going to be priced to compete the Tesla Model Y performance ($70K) and the Rivian R1S ($78K).
