Because Ford doesn't care about it anymore. You can't get the Performance Pack with the V6 like you can with the Ecoboost, or get the Premium trim like with the other two.

Well that 46k price is with the GT Premium trim which gives you leather, SYNC, and some other goodies. You can get a base GT with an old school radio and performance pack for like 34k.

Yea I think they're up there in price. Makes a nice sound though.

This looks great, but would it be able to pass the strict EU safety standards?

Well $8k of that MSRP is those carbon brakes. You can get one in the mid 70s if you don't check that option.

BMW will work with you to order one to spec.

I've heard an M4 with an Akrapovic exhaust and it sounded great.

The CTS is not comparable to a 911. It's a mass production luxury car.

I've seen more new Escalades on the road than CTSs.

BMW is already modular on some of their engines. The 1.5 3 cylinder in the Mini and i8 are half of a 3l I6 in their other cars.

The XE doesn't impress me. It's copying the trim levels of it's German rivals, offering a base 4 cylinder and a 6 cylinder FI upgrade, with both those engines being carryovers from other Jaguar models. The aluminum construction makes the car slightly lighter, but it still has similar performance of its German rivals.

The mobile site is greatly improved. Faster and smoother.

I'm not impressed with the design, it looks like something that should've been on the market 5 years ago, not being debuted today.

The interior is so....bland.

Despite all the special editions, production numbers are pretty low. Only around 450 units. Porsche is selling 918 918s and Ferrari is selling 499 LaFerraris. It's not like they're selling 9,000 cars like the Gallardo.

The Si is still a very capable car. The shifter is best in class, the steering is great, it has an actual LSD (unlike the ST), and is around 250lbs lighter. It is slower, but only slightly. (6.5s 0-60 compared to 6.2s for the ST).

Well of course it'll be more engaging to drive, it's smaller and lighter. Seeing both side by side you really notice the size difference. For an extra couple thousand I'd rather have the nicer interior (full leather recaros), more space, and bump in power.

And once you do your DIY maintenance expect the resale value of your car to plummet. People that buy these cars, even used, want consistent service records from reputable shops. So while you'll save money in the short term doing it yourself, when it comes to selling it you're gonna be losing out on a good amount.

Your Wrangler has the old Uconnect system with the smaller 6" screen.

They haven't fully switched to cable TV. They're on break, which really means they're filming stuff right now for the new season. A new season is starting at the end of July on YouTube.
