That’s another option. BMW Group sells enough fuel-efficient models and has an onslaught of EVs coming, so that should be enough to keep the nominal number of V12 Rolls-Royce units from tanking the corporate averages. The only issue is getting the V12 through the next round of emissions regulations, and some form of…

Yeah, I was gonna say Aston Martin

After compromising for a number of years with automatics it’s now back to three pedals. I realize that in a couple of years it might mean that I’ll be forced into buying only used cars. I blame all of you who buy paddle shift cars because “Dude, it is .04 faster from 0-60!”

After a couple years with a Smart Key I can’t go back to taking the key out of my pocket and putting it in the ignition switch. I look forward to the time when our phones unlock our cars.

“This has all been pretty head-spinning, as GM was very much friends with the Trump administration and its (attempted) slackened emissions rules until GM very much was not.”

Escalade could become it’s own standalone brand, wouldn’t hurt sales at all, and Caddy could become a full EV brand.

Neutral: I would expect Volvo to go all electric within a few years.

the entry level coupe had better be larger in all dimensions than a modern suburban.

Your cats and my dog should get together. I mean, squirrels hold her heart but she’s very, very successful in the baby bunny business.

She reminds me of the movie “Election” (1999), specifically the “fill me up” scene.

Now all they have to do is kill their expensive models.

Plot synopsis:

I think I speak for everyone here when I say how much I hate the working class.

I think I speak for everyone here when I say how much I hate the working class. If you have a mattress on the floor of your childhood friend Steve’s basement, a glass of water, and a bowl of oatmeal, you’re practically middle class.

You could say the later ones with the 351 Cleveland were a “Vulgar Display of Power”

Now that’s a car that looks fucking hostile 

I knew they existed, because I was 16 when they hit the roads, and I distinctly remember saying to myself, “I can’t believe Chevy put the Nova name on THAT.”

I have to take issue with the posts thus far, because nary a one is a car anyone has forgotten, Avanti included. Heck, one of them has its own museum.
