The RDX is not big by today's standards. What were you trying to persuade him to buy? An Encore? A Civic?

If you consider a source like JD Power to be objective and credible, then the Mini is considerably more reliable than the 500. I'm not sure what criteria you're using when you say the quality is better. I'm not a Mini fan, but I know the 500 is junk. It's hard to believe the 500 is better than....any other new car,…

Likewise for Diamantes, 929s, Millenias, Bonnevilles, and others I’ve surely forgotten. I recall shopping used cars (back before “used” was rebranded as "pre-owned") in the mid- to late-90s and cringing at some of the cars I’d see with that crap. 

That’s $1,600 in 2019. For stick-on wood. $1,100 for gold-plated badges. Amazing.

Ah, yes... Wood appliques were all the rage in the 90s. You could even get them for Civics and Corollas, if you were distasteful enough.

Yeah... If you weren’t pressed for time (e.g. an expiring lease on the Sorento), I’d wait for those Kia dealers to realize their game isn’t working, then get the Telluride after they concede they’re being stupid. I much prefer that to the Atlas. But...if the Atlas makes you happy, then good for you! I hope you don't…

Yes.

They’re all around Universal Studios and Disneyworld, probably as rentals.

I re-read your comment and see you said SSR, not HHR. I still don’t understand what you mean by building a car to generate traffic in the dealership, or why you said it was never meant to be sold.

The GTI holds strong to the formula you loved. Usable power, nimble handling, none of the overwrought nonsense of a CT-R or STi.

Wut?

The “write” is a total moron?

“Needing a vehicle with these capabilities“

The 500 is....better?! Hahahahahahahahahahah

I don’t know if you realize that’s not the original CL. Unless you’re specifically talking about a CL Type-S.

Except for the 3 row models. Those are wagons. 

Burn the drivers? You seem reasonable.

Sorry you lost her. That sounds awful. 

Crossovers are wagons. So....you're happy, now?

I don’t care how it looks as long as I can avoid going in to see the cashier and stand in line behind someone saying, “No, not those cigarettes...the other ones. No, the other other ones. Down a shelf and to the left. In the red packet.” Or the dreaded lottery player or some such nonsense. I will deal with the…
