Veloci-grappler.  (They blew it)

37 dicks, right?

We have learned so much about you today 

So much for Ford’s vetting process, and giving the car to people that are going to drive it.

Wanna blow a Starbucks barista’s mind? Tell them that Tall, Grande, and Vinti are all synonyms for large.

You do get points off at a concours if they are not properly aligned.

BMW has also been known to call 4-door cars coupes, so perhaps the German reputation for order is being over-sold.

Well, we could spend days highlighting automotive branding errors or oversights in the name of marketing, but I would argue MB is more to blame for all the four-door coupe language. If a person is willing to part with $100k for a CLS, and then BMW picks up on this cue and creates the X6, surely you can expect others…

I’m pretty sure all the Germans who designed the cars go home and cut themselves just to deal with That turbo word the marketing department who obviously must not be German put on their car. If you think any of them sleep easy you are wrong. I think even the engineers who have died are still turning in their graves…

Their engineers are definitely horrified by this but the marketing team won with the argument that keeping the trim names the same across all models “works best for customer understanding”, which is code for “maximize sales of the highest-trim/highest-profit variants.” “Turbo S” means something to Porsche people that…

Just ran into my garage to fix this and to my bewilderment realized that I don't own a porsche.

This is something I've always wondered about but never cared about to look into. Thanks Andrew!

I was going to say the same thing,except replace “car” with “BWM”,cause...well,you know.

“Despite having no experience working on BMWs”

I saw the badge and expected the Taycan.  Honestly, I was a little disappointed.

True.

Calling this a hybrid is like calling yourself a vegetarian even though you eat Five Guys once a month.

There, fixed. 

Naaa, on the whole MB seems to be the one that holds up better long term.

Had a 2002 E-class wagon. It should scare anybody. But I found the car totally worth it.
