Agreed on all counts, but really?

Toyota executives are definitely looking over at Hyundai/KIA and thinking, “...fuck.” (and probably lobbying the government to ditch their idiotic hydrogen push).

a little bit of space?

Still kinda sad that we never got a new Galant

Very Bugatti EB118 back there

Exactly. The new one already looks like the old one was ‘AI’ed into being a 2024 model. 

BMW made them until the last of the 2dr e30 3-series in 1991.

I don’t care about the Tiktoker—she survived and is fine and everyone’s no worse for the wear. But when did we all accept that 30+ minute ‘updates’ that completely brick a car while they’re happening are acceptable? What happens if there’s a minor emergency, like someone needing to be picked up on short notice or…

But perhaps the best-driving wrong-wheel drive car ever made.

Many would argue the DAF-derived Volvos were pretty lackluster, but I suppose they were sturdy and tractable enough—no better or worse than any of the later Ford-shared P1 models.

I just don’t understand why no one will sell me a two-door sedan! 😠

I know this is meant as context, but it comes off as a hilarious backhanded insult:

It’s certainly more eye-catching. In Scottsdale or Los Gatos I don’t look twice when an Aston passes—they all look basically the same anyway.

I mean, it seems like visually even the Milano’s front doors are shared with the 600e (same upward crease through the door handle), albeit with trim differences. Not that it matters since the e208 is of course on the same platform as all of these anyway.

You mean to say, 2008 is 2008 is 2008 is 2008

Yeah, $600k was probably a bit optimistic. $1 mil+ is where you finally get a decent Class A, but you still have to choose carefully. At the end of the day it’s not a terribly regulated market so it’s easy to get ripped off if you’re not aware of what components are good and which aren’t.  

a new 31 speaker Bang and Olufsen stereo that’s only available on the MDX Type S, though it is standard there.

I think it to be hideous as well, but there is a pedestrian safety aspect to the design, at least that is what I remember from about a decade ago when the pedestrian safety requirements in EU were updated.

I think people underestimate how expensive building a proper RV is. I’ve heard it said, think of it as buying a whole house as well as a good truck. If you want quality, you have to be spending close to $200k on a Class C and over $600k on a Class A. Or $200k on an Airstream.

Yeah but then you have to look at it and realize you could have just bought an 8th gen Civic instead...
