If the reliability is there, and parts are still available for it (suspension, brakes, etc.) then go for it. I daily a 2004 Lexus IS300 5M and it has been rock solid, easy to get parts for, and my family loves it. No worries at all about it. My previous daily was an 06 MINI JCW. Opposite experience. My summer car is a…

Oh there is plenty, read any reviews out there of the new Vantage. Any of them. The kindest ones are reservedly neutral. The rest, damning.

No they are not exactly the same, but they perform in the exact same market segment with the same engines and Aston does a much worse job of it for more money. The 5.2 turbo V12 in the DB is not a Merc engine? Who makes it then? There is enough special about the Zonda that it makes you not even think about the…

Let me count the ways it is worse...there are many. The new Vantage is ugly from just about any angle, and that is a cardinal sin for an Aston. It is way too busy and trying way too hard, the old one was just cool without even trying. It has no Aston character anymore, it is an AMG in a bad body kit. It does not sound…

Sky is blue.

Well this TTV6 wont be much better, not enough to justify the change anyways. Let Dodge be a specialty brand of FCA, the “Murica” couple of cars people can still buy with a big V8 and old school muscle car looks. Dodge has no future other than that, they have backed themselves into a corner over the last decade.

Masers are the underdog of the luxury brands. Only connoisseurs get them. All the Maserati people I have talked to have been really nice.

You are not far off. Because the world is stupid, especially America, the first one to get the powerful engine would probably be a Durango, Journey, or a Gladiator. The opposite of what they should be doing. Watch, it will happen.

I love this idea, as my 155 V6 is basically as you describe. It is a riot to drive.

This engine is entirely the opposite of what Dodge is. No.

I agree. Especially Alfas. 3 pedals only.

I agree. Keep it in Maserati, Alfa, and possibly a top range Fiat.

Chrysler is basically dead. Let it die, finally.

Anything Italian they have in their protfolio. Bring back the 2 door grand coupe a la Ghibli II with that lovely TT V6.

Not an American muscle car. Not LS powered. Not Murica enough.

I live in the real world. I care. As do others. But we are being shouted down by the vast public who are families who buy CUVs and the apologists who defend that trend. Those enthusiast-neutered families and empty nester boomers are the only new vehicle buyers, so of course the numbers are skewed that way. Lots of…

They make sense for mall crawlers with 2 kids and empty nesters with bad knees and backs. For any performance metric whatsoever, including speed, fuel economy, handling...they do not make sense.

America doesnt deserve a damn thing until they stop buying crossovers and only crossovers.

...and it still is not a proper Supra. What a failure. 

Thankfully TG is heavily insured. Hope the Lambo gets a full repair and is on the road again soon.
