I could see this as a Dodge.

Couldn’t care less about the “roominess”, but I’d like it if we could get interiors in more than just neutral colors again. And the WHOLE interior, not just the seats/door inserts.

Hope it’s a liftback, otherwise that trunk opening’s gonna be tiny...

It’s a capable off roader, and a totally rad little piece that we unfortunately are forbidden from having on this side of the Atlantic.

PRS would be Porsche, not Lotus; big enough to be noticed but not the first thing people think of when electric guitars come to mind.

My first job that wasn’t as part of a temp agency was working at a toy store. One of the non-toy things they sold were collections of various pop song covers that were performed by session musicians. One of them was all songs from the 99-00 “millennium era”; “Livin’ La Vida loca”, “Maria, Maria”, Only God Knows Why”,…

I don’t like It.

When it was illegal to drive faster than 55 MPH, even on the interstate.  “55" used to be boxed/highlighted in some way on the speedometer in those days.

I was a little kid in the 80s, so I guess I’m one of those “f-ing millenials” you’re ranting about. Still I remember those kinds of cars from brochures, magazines, and TV shows/movies, and I agree, the lack of “sporty” 2-door liftbacks in the modern car market is a shame. I even wrote a little memorial for them on…

The inconvenient truth that Ford wanted to ignore was the days of the “T’Bird” being a competitor with the Corvette were over and weren’t coming back, period. They should’ve retained the large, 4-seat configuration the car had since 1958 instead of saying, “nope, this is our ‘sporty’ offering; anyone who wants a fast…

How about actually enforcing jaywalking laws? Recently, I saw someone cross a FOUR LANE MAIN ROAD when there was a crosswalk less than 50 feet away. “Oh it’s not convenient/if a car hits me, the driver will get in a lot more trouble.” So a long, expensive hospital stay/death is worth saving a few steps/minutes? And…

Is it just me or are Raph’s suggestions starting to get weirder than Jason’s?

“Perpetual summer”??? Try those “amber waves of grain” turning into a desert.

Back to the Future Part II, Judge Dredd (1995), and RoboCop, I presume, but what’s the last one?  Akira?

Did you even read the article or did you just see the headline and the picture of a little girl on a Barbie Jeep and think she was saying people are childish for enjoying driving? And so what if her car is a 12 year old Nissan Sentra instead of a brown diesel Miata wagon with a stick shift. It had a lot more…

Used, 4 or 5 years from now, after “some other sucker has taken the depreciation hit”.

Offering choices isn’t profitable enough to give shareholders the ROI they demand.

That’s a strange way to type out “trying to force them into badge engineering instead of giving them the investment they needed and then pulling the plug when it became clear they weren’t going to settle for that”...

I used to collect car brochures from the dealerships my dad worked for as well as from the auto shows, but they’ve all since fallen apart and got tossed. There’s a couple of sites like oldcarbrochures.org and xr793.com that have scans of brochures that I like looking at, but sometimes I can’t help but think, “Why…
