It isn't the best headline, considering the best Chilean missed his pk also. Though I think I heard it was the first time Messi has ever missed in a penalty shootout. Which is pretty crazy.

Open door, then shift to neutral.

The details on this car are just stunning. I love the close up of the tail lamp.

As long as the US doesn't lose by 7, I think gloating is acceptable.

As a Corvette fan and some who doesn't care for Ford, it was a sad day. Though not as sad as Toyota's. Can't win them all though!

I was gonna star this, but it had 69 stars at the time. Nice.

The CLA comes from the factory with rattles. I've driven numerous with less than 500 miles that rattled more than any Mazda6 I've driven.

So Mazda, one of the smallest car manufacturers, continues to innovate and has some of the best engineering in the industry. The things they accomplish for a company of their size is quite impressive.

Have you found any redeeming quality that would make the Mitsubishi a reasonable purchase for some really quirky person or nah?

Not to he captain serious or anything, but Fiat dealers often have fantastic service because of the limited customer base, they need to make sure every customer is happy!

They drop in value compared to msrp, but is it really that steep of a drop off compared to actual purchase price? One of the reasons some cars seem to depreciate so fast is due to massive incentives on new models dragging down the value of a used car.

I disagree. Everybody should buy the Fiat so there a plenty of used ones and a strong after market. If nobody buys any then how could it depreciate when there's still plenty of demand for used ones! I've also heard from Fiat dealers that there is a lot of interest in this car so I don't think it will be a worry.

Or most of Lexus’ over-styled line-up!

This whole column is. Everybody has a different best. That’s why the auto industry is so great. There are endless options and an incredible amount of different cars out there.

While you’re right about it not being available, it’s hard to judge the reliability and fit and finish. The finish on the pre production models I’ve seen has been fantastic so far.

Best sedan I ever drove. I think this is the best modern muscle car.

While I love the Rapide and it’s one of my two favorite cars I’ve had the fortune to drive, it’s such a piece of crap. Aside for the looks and engine of course. Interior was so cramped an impractical, couldn’t see out of it, no trunk, crap radio interface, and useless nav. But I still love it Oh so very much.

I think a classic SS logo would be the best logo for the front of that car.

Counterpoint...

Yes. Charger Scat Pack. Cheaper and far better looking. It also sounds fantastic. Though it does lose points for being an automatic, at least it's the zf 8 speed.
