I want it to work too. I think they will have to be aggressive with price to make it competitive in its segment, which would be sure to cannibalize the upper trim Optima’s.

I just shopped this category, and wound up exactly where I thought I would, with a Cx9. The new traverse looks like a combo of a Highlander from the front, and then a Explorer from the side.

This is really nice. The exterior style kind of works with this large of a vehicle. The interior is gorgeous. I would take this over a Ct6 or a Continental. The G90 looks a little nicer on the outside imo, but I think the interior will be nicer in the LS.

It isn’t a big difference to just get a Camaro. Who needs to see anything on the road, or have friends with legs anyway?

Will it be able to do all the things my current car voice command can do? I like looking up a restaurant to go to and it being in a different state than I was searching, or taking 6 attempts to voice dial someone with a one syllable name.

Looks like it will be a fun sports sedan, and hopefully a bargain (I’m thinking $35k nicely loaded). Curious to know if this is foreshadowing to the Genesis G70, and how the two cars will be positioned against each other.

I typically see 75 year old pensioners driving the XTS, however I did see a mid 50's guy in the CT6. They are going down in age at least.

At first thought I didn’t think this was a good deal, but then I thought 30 days with an ATS-V would be nearly as fun as any of those driving experience deals. Can the concierge fetch me some sticky tires?

I like this pick. I think the above picks sound good on paper, but I wouldn’t want to daily and break an amg. The Lexus has a better chance of surviving 15k miles a year.

Interestingly enough, Ginetta did field an LMP1 hybrid in 2011. It was a P2 Zytek (now Gibson) with a battery pack. It seems like the great Adrian Reynard is involved with the project, maybe it will be good.

You folks in the south keep voting against your own employment interests, while I collect contractual raises, a month of pto per year, great Healthcare, and a guaranteed pension as a union member. Call me a libtard, tell me all about your free market conservativism, or how awful unions are. You’ll show me.

This is the perfect application for this engine. The 2.5 turbo 4 that Mazda just came out with is high compression for a turbo, and does some interesting heat transfer stuff to try to get the efficiency back. By being able to lower compression when cruising, it is the best of both worlds.

I think allowing streaming options for fans who have cut the cord, otherwise every thing else is fluff. This is a mature product, there is not going to be magically millions of people who suddenly start watching.

The fact that a Chinese court is enforcing ip owned by a western company was something unheard of just 10 years ago. Awarding damages for copying cars that have the eyes in the wrong place has significant implications on global trade.

FIA runs the RX world championship... and Supercars are Australian stock cars. Get off my lawn with those flat billed baseball caps.

Yours is way less lame than mine. I had leasing a new family vehicle on my list, and said to myself that I would wait out my wife’s current lease until April... I was bored during the slowest work week of the year last week, worked some quotes, realized I had a little positive equity in the lease, and shook hands on a…

Drive is boring, and is only worth watching for the odd casting of Albert Brooks.

The ATS has 53k on the dial with a cheap interior. I do prefer the pre face-lift model to the new one, they are sharp. It does handle well, but there are too many compromises on this car for it to be fun.

The 98' cars didn’t need to keep up the charade that they were road cars.

What was embarrassing about a championship with bespoke cars from Mercedes, Nissan, Toyota, Mazda, Jaguar, etc etc? It wasn’t a Porsche parade by the time 3.5 came about, they were mostly field fillers at that point. People neglect to realize that the 962 was long in the tooth by the 90s, Porsche discussed a…
