And with only 4 cylinders! Yay fuel efficiency!

Yes it does. The Cadillac XTS, Buick LaCrosse, Lincoln Continental, etc. all compete with the ES.

The A6 is available with FWD, not FWD-based. For Quattro, the engine and transmission is mounted longitudinally. Therefore, Audi has more in common with RWD layouts than FWD.

Thing is, out of the German Three, Mercedes-Benz is the team to beat. BMW is playing catch up to them now. Audi too. BMW leans toward performance and Audi leans toward luxury, but M-B is hitting that sweet spot in the middle.

Exactly. People complain about platform age, but don’t seem to realize that all those years mean constant, improvement, parts availability, testing, and as you said, affordability thanks to paid-off tooling.

I... Kinda feel the same way. Not because I want Alfa Romeo to succeed, but because I know Sergio bet the whole house on Alfa, so if they fail, there goes everything Chrysler that isn’t Jeep and Ram. So I want Alfa to iron out the kinks, so Dodge and Chrysler can do well.

German over-engineering + Japanese driving dynamics= Axis of Mediocrity?

In just over a week, bullshit hit the fan. More bullshit is en route escorted by a wing of horseshit. Americans are in danger. Our troops are in danger. This country is in danger. This world is in danger.

This. Especially that last paragraph. Ever since the K900 I’ve been saying Kia is like Buick, but with balls.

Rumor also has it that there’s a DOHC 6.2 LT5 coming to be shared with the ‘Vette ZR1 and Camaro Z28

I’m 6'4", so when you do sit in one, please tell me how you fit.

How tall are you and how does it fit?

I promise that’s the Lexus RX and Porsche Cayenne and Macan. This looks like something a yuppie with spiked hair would drive.

I expect this car to age extremely well. Much of Mercedes-Benz current lineup will, but this one especially. It must be the lack of unnecessary lines. Kinda reminds me of the first Audi A5.

Those are hideous. FWD with a front overhang that puts Citroen to shame.

That’s not a sweep spear. These are:

What’s with people on here calling the Lexus RX a SUV? It’s always been an egregious example of a minivan in denial for basic betches cool moms.

Don’t know about your area, but in my area they’re not yuppies. They’re usually suburban middle-aged moms that wear yoga pants and Ray Bans

You mean one of the same media outlets that took the victims of blatantly unlawful murder by police, and assassinated their character, as if their past had something to do with said murder? One of the media outlets that covered Trump as if he was a serious, credible candidate? How could you not see this coming?

Bullshit. This is about the resurgence of white supremacy. The white supremacists are a team, and urban, suburban, and rural white supremacists all play different positions with different roles.
