I don’t know… I feel like you can find one without a salvage title for not that much more than what this seller is asking.

There are occasionally some very interesting cars and good deals that pop up on C&B, but for the most part I agree that (for the newer or more exotic stuff at least) it seems to be mostly flippers and dealers. Recently I’ve noticed quite a few auctions that went RNM at prices that the vehicle should have sold for…

Local dealer seems to be offering $8.8k off on a 2023 Aviator Grand Touring, $14k off on a 2023 Navigator, and up to $7k off on a 2022 Corsair PHEV. Those are pretty good discounts, but they are still expensive cars.

Aviators had a lot of issues during the initial roll out. I think most, if not all of them, have been addressed now; but it didn’t leave a good impression with owners who paid $80k+ for one only to have a problem the same day they bought it.

APR is related to the “money factor” on the lease. Money factor tells you the financing charges associated with the lease. It’s similar to an interest rate, in that it is affected by an individual’s credit score. You multiply the money factor by 2,400 to get the APR equivalent. On any lease you want the lowest money…

I see this as the Lamborghini of pickup trucks

The current K5 does that too.

Don’t forget the Polestar 5.

You can’t ignore the dealer experience. The product might be good, but buying the product also has to be a good experience. Especially if you are talking about conquest sales to people who would normally buy an Audi or BMW (in the case of the Stinger).

Assuming she’s also not a sociopathic billionaire, she has to live with being the last person to talk to someone while they were dying. Not her fault but I’m sure it will haunt her for years.

They have to be able to enforce the ban, otherwise it’s practically pointless.

Deathspartan117 was asking about the NX, not RX; but I believe they use the same powertrain setups.

The problem I’ve found is that there are very few “good” (subjective, I know) CVTs on the market. Toyota’s is probably the best, but it’s not a transmission that is designed for any kind of performance driving. 

Toyota uses a CVT transmission for all of their hybrids. My guess is that it was a way to smooth out blending power delivery in the early days of hybrids, and Toyota just stuck with it.

The hybrid apparently only weights 50 lbs more than the regular version, so my guess is that the CVT transmission in the hybrid is to blame (the non-hybrid gets an 8 speed). 

That’s the biggest mark against the Emira in my book, it’s expensive for what you get. But I’ve heard that the steering is simply sublime, and that’s something you feel going 35 mph too. So I’m eager to try one and see if that is enough to convince me it’s worth the money.

It’s shameful what passes as “Driver’s Ed” these days in the U.S. For all the pearl clutching this country likes to do about “think of the children”, we sure don’t seem to care about letting them barrel across a highway at 80 mph in a 5 ton truck/suv with minimal training or experience.

it’s not like it could turn out any worse drivers than it already does. 

Kevin O’Leary? How much does he have invested in those ride share companies?
