Posting this in the hope that with enough stars the prices will plummet and I can convince Mrs. Paaron that we need one. Help me out here.

No, they aren’t. And it’s not a great excuse. They effed with the proportions to fix a problem that didn’t exist. If BMW customers were really complaining about it being difficult getting in and out of BMW sedans, then they deserve what they got.

How is the XM not the top answer? It is unexcusably hideous, isn’t particularly fast for how much power it has, and costs a small fortune.

I was kinda looking forward to the day when two-tone cars came back. But, my eyes! Not this!

It’s like they looked at the Avalon and thought the grille was neat. 

They have some horrid cars throughout their history but they’ve really topped themselves with the new 7 series

X4 is not even close: that lede image actually looks pretty good!

For me its a wagon. I like gardening and outdoor activities like paddle boarding and windsurfing. I need the length and cargo space of a wagon, but i want the lightness, handling, and low seating position of a sedan. I also want roof rails so i can carry long paddleboards on the roof. My ideal car would be a GTI wagon…

Extremely funny to see this comment on this review, which is a rant against spec sheets

This entire article was about intangible qualities not captured by a spec-sheet.  Congratulations on the worst take ever.

Why are you even here? You’re not a car enthusiast. This is a site for car enthusiasts. 

Agreed. I said the same and much preferred their earlier concepts and the promises. There were 4 years between this 2009 concept and the first FRS. about half way between that i said what im hoping this car is like is an s2000, then just bought a used S2000 instead. Glad i did. i enjoyed driving the S2000 far more…

they showed several more concepts years after this first one. I like the first one best but the shipping product didnt look anywhere near as good as any of the concepts. nor did it deliver on the fun to drive aspects as it should have

for me it was the FRS/BRZ. Id been following it since the first concept which said it would be light, over 200hp, and very inexpensive. But then i watched as each new concept made it uglier and the price rose way over their initial claims. So after waiting years i realized a used S2000 has all the things i was hoping…

There are two. The Nissan Quest minivan where they designed the dash around the aesthetic of a trashcan, and placed the gauges and controls so far away from you.

I agree

I cant think of any car whose design has held up better than the fd RX-7. But is hasnt unexpectedly held up, it was a clear classic the instant they showed it.

I have no idea why I feel this way, but I feel like the 2004-2008 Acura TL has aged pretty well. Especially in Type S trim.

The Taycan TURBO S is one of the dumbest names seeing as how it doesnt have a turbo. I mean its like the days of the old PCs with the turbo button. And it uses the font you’d expect on cake frosting
