I wouldn’t say they’re bad, I’d say they’re misleading. They’re targeted at the type of people that are featured in the ads, who think that a leather interior makes a car like a Lexus, or that in-car wi-fi is a desperately needed option, or that a steel bear cage protects better than aluminum. People who don’t do…

2nd Gear: Meanwhile, Mazda slid. A lot. Like, a 16% drop from last February lot.

Exactly what I thought when you said 4 spd. The electric motors will cover the bottom gear or 2 and then the 4 spd the top 4. So you essentially have a 6spd-4spd auto. The thing I am confused about is the Combined? 345hp? That seems reallllllly low, like really low.

Toyota Corolla. Select transmission. Copy. Paste.

That would explain December i8 sales. Bigger in December than the last 5 months combined and 20x January’s sales.

Neutral - I dunno if it is cheating or not and probably not super relevant to your average consumer. No one buys a BMW, Audi, or Mercedes because they sold more cars than the other guy last year. However, on the topic of loaner cars, they can be excellent values. Often they are well equipped and have low miles.…

Stopped reading at “weight does not matter.”

So that whole piece about BMW being back to its roots and not making bloated shit is complete bloated shit?

It just looks...squished.

It’s going to America.

Neutral: Well, they will be getting a lot - and I mean a lot - of $1,000 dollar payments starting March 31st when they start accepting reservations for the Model 3. Mine will likely be among the first of the $1,000 reservations. I will be at the Tesla store on the 31st as soon as they start accepting pre-orders.

ok

OFF TOPIC:

I saw that and immediately thought “Durango”.

Yes, and I think I’ll save it for my next book. Aston isn’t the first automaker to do this — Land Rover has done the same. Ferrari didn’t care at all!

something that ive only recently noticed but is completely fascinating to me is just how small these small CUVs are on the inside. I mean they are smaller than cars i would consider small. Take for instance a VW GTI 2dr. It has 15% more interior volume and about 30% more cargo space with seats up or down. It only…
