Sports cars should have remained liftbacks.

And thus not give any money to Acura, killing the business case for cars like this instead of proven sellers like the MDX.

Why can’t someone like Ford, Chevrolet or even Dodge make an EV like this? Why couldn’t the Mustang Mach E be something like this instead of a crossover in Mustang clothing? Why do we have to accept SUVs as the default model of car now?

We should never have allowed CAFE to be a thing. It just exacerbates Americans’ childish need to have everything bigger by allowing automakers to say that if they can’t make cars long/wide anymore, they could make them tall. And we’re paying the price for it in terms of damage to the environment from increased…

Who will then ruin it with their “GAZE UPON MY GIANT GRILL AND DESPAIR” corporate front.

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

People probably thought the “inevitable” nuclear war with the USSR would result in them being opened either centuries behind schedule or by some ragtag group of survivors who either couldn’t remember what the “before times” were like or had been born into a world in which such things as “kars” and “moatersighkils”…

Dear Everyone Else,

Except that Acura doesn’t exist in the Japanese domestic market, it was clearly announced as an Acura and the top brass at Acura hinted at a new Integra a few years back.

Exactly. You’d swear they think Miatas and wagons are the only cars that should exist.

I agree with everything you’ve said, but I think the word you’re looking for to describe the Tesla superfans is acolyte, not Luddite. Luddites would thing Teslas and a vehicle with an NA V8 is the work of Satan.

(This will likely be invisible since for whatever reason after years of being a productive commenter I’m in the grays, but whatever)

So why can’t Americans buy it?

In theory, if packaging is no object then rotary range extenders could be used in hybrid models across Mazda’s entire range. They could have an entire lineup with rotaries as an option for the first time since the 70s (outside of certain JDM models).

Yea, there are some boats in that picture.

I dunno, there are a few newer rock-type artists that could do a tie-in with HD like Halestorm, Greta Van Fleet, the Pretty Reckless or even the Black Keys. Heck, even Lenny Kravitz, though he’s not really new-new, he’s still more relevant to modern music than Aerosmith (who were never really that great even in their…

Lucky they didn’t try to get you into an F-150...

Of course they aren’t going to produce it. They’ll put that nice front end on a crossover.

Also, yes to more T-Tops... and mullets, and Metallica’s Master of Puppets turned up to 11.

Most cars were available in more than one or two variants in the 80s/90s. Now it’s utility vehicles all the way down.
