I am not seeing much if any Tesla in the design. Buick, yes, but not even my mom would confuse that thing with the Model S.

As VP of Marketing I resent that remark. I have and had many cars in my day and none of them were an Infiniti. You are a corporate racist. Down with male-hegemony stereotypes!

What I haven't heard is WHY Apple would do this. I totally get why they would involve themselves on the info-tainment side. But why bother with the whole care. They focus on high-margin pseudo luxury. It would be more profitable and more in their wheelhouse to go after Video/TV and disrupt it like iTunes. Or home

I never understand why people keep repeating this as a problem. Its like saying the Yaris will never sell because it doesn't work for people that need to tow a horse trailer. People select vehicles that fit their needs. Need range? Go with gas or a hybrid. Don't need range or have a wife with a gas car? Get the

Its important to remember that a cab ride can cost $90 and take more than an hour to get downtown. So while this is pricey, it really isn't extravagant.

To be sure, the IMS thing was an issue, but lets be clear; I owned a 993 and have a 996 now. The build quality is exactly the same. The 993 just didn't have any features. Nothing to break. I don't know where you are getting this "build quality" thing from but it certainly not considered true in the Porsche community.

Am I in a parallel universe? Ford, Jaguar and Cadillac are cranking out amazing new cars and BMW/Audi/Nissan/Etc have all become giant MEH factories.

Agreed. It does look like awkward as hell.

Safety regulations are forcing this. High beltlines for airbags, huge front ends for pedestrian safety, etc.

You should stop watching fox news. The world has never been a safer place. By any measure.

Your laughing like this doesn't happen. It does.

I hate this line of reasoning so much. "Nothing to hide" does not make an invasion acceptable. Also let just hope you do not travel the same route as "known traffickers" because then, hey, you just lost your car to civil forfeiture.

God, that must be a tough sell. "Sir, may I interest you in our out-dated overpriced engineering exercise that is bested by every other better looking and cheaper car in the class?"

The Focus ST is thousand time more practical than the Fiesta ST. I wouldn't even consider owning a Fiesta ST.

You can see the wiring harness dissolving as we speak.

My guess is that when this rolls out, it will be the death of the Manual in the M-series in the USA. If not sooner.

In fairness, he never said anything other than Hyperloop was a cool idea and someone should do it. He never said he was going to start that company.

But did Honda just miss their train completely despite the 2016 NSX being better looking than all their previous concept cars?

The only reason I can see this working is if they are able to customize these in some way to suit specific customers. For instance, the National Parks department (which operates the monuments in DC) has some specific need for their security folks and the LM product can make that cost-effectively. Also, there are a

The ultimate sin for the NSX would be to look boring. Acura is headed to hell.
