It’s like selectively breeding animals, no matter what traits you try to bring out, you eventually go too far and end up with something that can’t keep itself alive.

8 cars they say? my bet is:
Dodge Charger Sedan
Dodge Charger Coupe
Chrysler 300
Chrysler Airflow
Jeep Wagoneer S (because the airflow needs its sales cannibalised)
Jeep Recon (hopefully)
Maserati Quattroporte(?)
Alfa Romeo Giulia

not just hp, but power/weight ratio.

This is an interesting point in regard to Zoomers being lower than Millenials: back in the day, boys wanting an adrenaline kick would buy a $500 chevy, then do stoplight drag races and jump it off the back road railway crossing.
these days, boys wanting an adrenaline kick can just boot up their game console, load us nee…

in a lot of markets the ones on the rear quarters can’t be the only taillights, due to not being visible behind the spare tire.
in fact, on a lot of similar vehicles in AUDM (the Y61 patrol for example), the taillights on the quarterpanels are non-functional dummies, other than the reverse and fog lights.
the ones in…

I say don’t make any exemptions based on the size of the vehicle, that just encourages a given demographic just below that to jump up to that size.

I think between a combination of its features, size, and longevity, one could make the case that the W123 is the “most car” ever put into one car.

a plymouth prowler, perhaps?

I think it depends on what you consider “performance”.

I’m also thinking the IMV 0 might be a preview of an upcoming j70 landcruiser facelift.

Mega Cruiser?

I always see Americans saying “Australia had so many cool cars that we never got” but here’s one right under your nose, dingus.

similar in concept to the opel signum, but entirely based on the larger malibu.

that right there is the embodiment of
“mum can we have ford territory?”
“we have ford territory at home”

catering to “old school luxury” and thus having restrained and boring designs has been one of cadillac’s main problems for a while now.
for example, I think the allante would have been much more of a success if it had half the style of a contemporary imperial coupe but instead it looked like a car from GTA san andreas.

on the contrary, if a car is committed hard enough to its own era, it comes right back around to being cool again.
even in ‘58, consumers were already getting tired of the gaudy, overstyled look of cars, and this Conti gives the feeling of
“Oh what’s that, you think I’m ugly? Does it look like I care?”

the doors on an XJ are also removable, your point?

hmm, that recon looks like it’s meant to be an XJ cherokee successor.
I can’t wait for [RUSTY JEEP ENTHUSIAST] to buy a completely flogged one in 20 years time and document his masochistic endeavours with it on [CAR WEBSITE]

exactly, which makes it a 2022 car.
2022 isn’t the future, it’s the present!

they’re not going to be able to stay as vaporware until 2030.
they’ll either go into production (which the lightning seems almost there), or they’ll be forgotten as “yet another concept that didn’t get made”.
tesla hype will manage to keep people interested in it long after it reaches The Elio Threshold, that’s the…
