Having driven a Prius back to back with the Ford C-Max if you remotely care at all about driving while trying to save fuel the C-Max is far more enjoyable to drive as it turned out. It’s also safer in merging into the freeway due to the slightly higher performance envelope and if you want to chirp the tires it will do…

Then fight the subsidy. I’m not sure why Tesla is bad for taking advantage of available subsidies. I KNOW the oil companies do.

If this is a list of quirks, then shouldn’t there be a Doug Score?

Who needs a radio when you can listen to that sweet exhaust note.

You guys make me and my new Giulia very sad. Words hurt! :-(

So as to stymie the conversation, the point I was making is there’s a lot of ways to spend $100,000 on a luxury automobile. People tend to like concrete facts like “numbers” in these sorts of comparisons, thus power and weight seemed pretty rudimentary. I could also write a haiku about the truck if you’re poetically…

You have just defined the Ford’s advertising campaign.

This post combines Volvo’s and millenials, two things historically Ihaven’t been fond of, yet I like the car and the service seems to make sense.

At least in this case, it might be worth reporting them to the authorities or giving your client the option of reporting them. This sounds like a simple variation on a bait and switch.

I would. I bet they would sell warranty, but of course a good aftermarket one would be the way I go on these types of cars.

That one looks like the car was built for the wing and not vice versa- so I approve.

The best stock wing

Hahahahahahahahahaha.

LOL @ bros holding the car back from launching.

Honda : We must assure sure this car launches cleanly and without torque steer. We will spend millions assuring you never lose a stoplight race to wheelspin.

US: WAT? NO BRO MODE? This car is trash.

That is exactly correct, and what a dealer told me about the CLS550 that I recently bought. It needed about $3K worth of work and was priced about $2K under fair value. The original counter to my $3K reduction was “It’s been on the lot for 21 days. We’ll sit on it for another 3 until someone comes along that doesn’t…

But the interior is so much nicer and they look so much better. Suppose it depends on what you are looking for.

Seems like it could be a worthwhile tradeoff.

Not necessarily.

A lot of those items seem like basic maintenance. Brake fluid holding water? Just bleed them. Do 911s have some sort of super special extra secret brake bleeding process? From what I’ve heard, Porsche brakes have some kind of nut you can’t really break loose with standard tools, so a trip to a shop isn’t a bad…
