I hope I can keep my car that long. I bought a 1988 Town Car when I was 18, not my first but first I bought with my own money. It’s been so dead-reliable, acting as my daily for months at a time when my newer cars got hit twice and insurance dragged their feet. I have been able to drive it anywhere. I just took it to…
Forget the v12 news...did I just read that Pagani will make an SUV ?
Saw a Volvo limo in use in NYC with Livery plates the other day.
Seriously, CPO means nothing. I made a mistake and trusted White Plains Lincoln when I bought one of their Manager’s 9 Month old MKZs (was registered to WPL). Turns out, AFTER it fell off a lift and killed a mechanic, they THEN ALSO crashed the car, bondo’d it up all over, sold it to me as an accident free CPO,…
Reminds me of my own experience with the reverse-auto-braking. When my car was hit we got a 2019 FWD Cherokee rental. Took that thing a little too deep while off roading and the trail just ended in a cliff-type washout. So I had to back out a good mile in reverse through extremely thick shrubs that we basically…
Narrow CP. Cheap for an electric runaround, but not exactly “throw away” money if anything except the battery goes wrong...on an FCA electric car. Only other reason is that you can get something else electric with more range at $8000. But if you’re into fiats instead of Nissan Leafs (which I am) I think it is a good…
Sooooo...who wants to go halfsies on a mildly-biohazard 4runner at Missouri Copart?
Those Silverados look better crashed than when they left the factory...
This is odd to me. I’ve heard so many proven complaints but I’ve rented 2 different ones ffrom Hertz and a dealer loaner, (high mileage driver--probably put about 7k on both,) and my brother-in-law leased a 2016 focus over 34k miles, no issues. I wonder how many the problem affects?
Rght? Username bias aside, didnt Bentley do that with Lincoln, and then the crybaby designer who lost his shit about LINCOLN potentially stealing sales from BENTLEY (🙄) ended up mysteriously fired from his years-long position shortly after due to “unrelated events...” This never ends well for the crybaby, especially…
Do you even drive? Since when do you brake with your left foot?
And not for nothing, but the 2016 MKZ (3 Years old) is going to be thousands less than a 2017 MKZ facelift. The 2016s also only topped out at 52g I think, while you could spec 2017s up to $65000. So I definitely see a $40,000 MKZ Reserve (pre facelift) going for 20,000.
To be honest, I like the Black Label white interior I have better. The backseat is also lacking in this new Bentley.
Im sorry. Username bias and all that, I think I’d really still buy a Lincoln MKZ with 400hp and AWD, see how it compares in speed to the ATSV/CTV4 Or whatever and then spend the extra, like, 20grand I save (assuming GM doesnt do another Buy One Get One like the rest of their models) and tune the Lincoln. I guarantee…
That was one of my first questions when I read "We are talking about 4x4 Passenger vehicles, not trucks" in the last article.
As someone who tracks cars, I completely agree. It is an undeniably scary feeling knowing that you can lose the car instantly even if you’re the best driver in the world. Could be someone else’s fault, broken ball joint, any number of things. But personally that feeling driving home from the track is the most…
The 90's kid in me secretly hopes its this.
Coming from a family of German and British cars (S Classes, A8s and Bentleys) I do have to agree that the new Benz’s have issues. My father and his brother have S classes (16 Sedan and 17 Coupe) and I’ve never seen cars go through so many wheels and tires in 15k miles lol. The sedan keeps leaking its oil, both cars…
But that modification would make him upside down on the cars value.
I'm sorry, but a ~$40,000 car with 167 HP is complete BS. Maybe if it looked as good as the current golfs, MAYBE, it would sell well. I just don't see this catching on. It's not even nice looking IMO.
