I don't understand it. Like that picture of the super-rough, hacked-together 7 Series prototype interior from last week...and every single comment was "Look how ugly it is omg I'd never buy that"...Has nobody on a car enthusiast website ever seen a goddamn test mule? Or a development prototype? How do you think

Nope. Minivan is safer.

People buy the pilot because as teenagers they swore to themselves they would never own a gross minivan like mom and dad have. It's a real shame because the minivan is the perfect family vehicle. My ex wife is like this, she refuses to drive a minivan so she has to have a gas guzzling SUV that's bigger on the

Not a poseur car. Anyone who is spending that much money on a car and buys one with a Nissan badge actually cares about how the car performs, not what they look like in it. Otherwise they'd have gotten a Carrera 4.

I'm going to go out in left field for this one and suggest full size, heavy duty pickups. How many more years will they be produced? These might be some of the last. Sure they are awful as hell to drive and look like the wrong mix of bling and brawn, but they're still multi-million mile vehicles that can be on the

Miata is always the answer.

Any excuse to post this..

That's because no owner actually drives it fast. Prius owners, on the other hand, save lots of money on gas.

Totally agree. If anything, the California buyer is being a lot more honest about what they want out of the car than the typical 458 buyer.

Well, it's a car meant to save gas. Which it does.

6.) Ferrari California

In my measly 2 weeks of Odyssey ownership, I have ruffled several feathers already by (non-combatively) complimenting other people's Pilots as being basically the same as our van — which is to say a solid car choice. Heaven forbid I mention that we looked at the Pilot and decided it was a little too tight inside, or

The California in my opinion is the least Poseur car they make. It actually gets driven as it was intended to be. How many people own 458's and just drive them to the drug store 4 times a year? That sounds much more poseur to me. I love an honest GT car.

I'm going to go ahead and throw this one out here, because I think it's at least worth discussing: General Motors went from recalling the ignition switch to basically putting extremely critical and fresh eyes on everything made in recent memory, which prompted huge recalls that are still ongoing. The vast majority

Here's the slightly newer WAS ambulance with a freakin' snorkel! It's not particularly featured relative to the giant box F-350-based ambulances or Sprinters you see in most places, but it gets the job done. Could you imagine heading down a trail in a dually F-250?

The B-52 and the Tu-52 even went into service half a decade earlier - and both are still used most effectively (and will be for two decades or three).

I think the new E-wagon looks fantastic, especially after the facelift and rounder headlights. I like the A-class over CLA...seems like the A's hatchback give it more proportion than the 4-door coupe-look of the CLA.

You're right, but you skipped a few generations where they sort of split. I don't think the W203 or 204 look like the W220 or 221.

They did the new C awfully well, and it truly mimics the S. Too bad the E is still a little awkward and that the CLA exists. Seriously, the CLA is all sorts of FWD horrendous.

What about Mercedes circa now?
