UConnect is easily one of the best, and most intuitive infotainment systems on the market. Sync is a very good system as well, but not many would claim it is better than UConnect. Of course personal preference and familiarity weighs heavy here, but I think in broad strokes you will find yourself in the minority on…

He didn’t make it like that, he bought it as a salvage car, with all the branding intact. He just bought it and fixed it up. Although he might be in trouble, it is also the companies responsibility to remove the branding before it is sold, so it’s not like he’s completely in the wrong either.

Don’t worry, you can’t ruin this car, it’s too amazing.

No, probably worse. This era was a low point for vehicle electronics, and Mercedes-Benz in general...

Squirrelly, gutless, slow vehicles would make wonderfully entertaining racing!

I ’ve never yet heard anyone from Europe use the term “1%-ers”. I’ve also, with the exception of a handful of unpleasant Russians, heard anyone from Europe say anything as shouty and judgey about something as meaningless as someone’s choice to buy something, as you have just said. I’ve also never heard any European…

I see this is still a sensitive topic in Oregon...

What is effectively a 20% increase of purchase price is a huge increase in price.

You have been mislead Sir/Madame! The Orlando might not be as good as say the Mazda5, but it is a reasonably decent car. I’m only sad that they didn’t try to market it a little more and get get a few more sales. It is a great car for Canada. I bought a Mazda5 instead, but it was on the short list. A decent car that…

No, Sergio has been shopping FCA to anyone who will let him in the door. It’s not manufactured hype, it’s an actual, unengineered, fact.

But, everything he is saying is still true. It’s not like he’s fabricating it, all of these things are legitimate problems to either safety or quality.

I really wanted one, I’m a contractor and I need a truck for work. Used ones were way too expensive for the milage they had on them, a new one that had everything I wanted came to about $44k (CAD). So I bought a used two year old Sierra similarly optioned for $14k. Tacoma’s are awesome but 30 Grand can buy a lot of…

Drive the automatic. The manual is a straight up supercar by comparison.

It doesn’t have to be that difficult IFTTT can solve those unwieldily sentences to activate other “skills” on Google Home.

Nope. China has way more selection in the automotive market than the US does.

All of those reviews were positive, and said it was fun to drive...

8.8 seconds is not show by any means, as long as the comparison doesn’t include sports cars & supercars. In Canada where weather is more extreme and cities are farther from one another, smaller cars like this do reasonably well. So there is no excuse beyond the fact that “bigger is better” is an all-encompassing…

I definitely agree. My wife and I looked at a C-Max, ended up getting a Mazda5. Same underpinnings, better vehicle: available manual, seats six instead of five, bigger interior volume, and more practical storage space in the back.

Yes, you do. What’s so bad about an Abarth? Driven one and would love to daily one.

“Laser Zentrum Nord” sounds way cooler in German than English. “Laser Center North” sounds like a place you go to play laser tag...
