I think has said something to the effect that they need to focus on features that really matter and not let themselves get delayed. If you watch the introduction of the X from a few years ago it was weird how much he talked about the doors. Amazing machine with so many virtues but he was going on about the damned…

That's what Benz did on the recent gullwing.

It’s raining and you open the falcon door. Water get in?

He works at Tesla. Sweet. I just googled him.

You made a nice little rant. The fact is that there are now great fabrics that are soft, easy-to-clean, and won’t heat up. They just aren’t making their way into cars.

A little perspective from the furniture business. There are basically infinite grades of microsuede. Your really good kind from Restoration Hardware won’t look so roughed up. That sofa from Rooms to Go will look like the roof of Tavarish’ Benz. Kind of shocked its such a poor quality in an S-class.

So many legal experts on Jalopnik. Who knew?

It's been on Chicago Craig for a few months at least and he was asking more. It's cool looking. If it were RWD I would have taken a peak.

What could be done to make motorcycles more popular? Make people poorer. You mention other countries where these are more than toys. Well, when those people can afford it, they move up to cars. Motorcycling is mostly done out of necessity, rarely a choice.

I spoke to a service guy at the dealer and he said the new one is going to share the turbo 4 with the GLA. Not a secret, I assumed.

The tesla will have a very low center of gravity because of the enormous weight of the batteries which are on the floor. The S has a center of gravity like a Corvette. The X will be higher of course but probably lower than most sedans. Having said that I'd like to know how these doors function in rollover. Mercedes…

You haven't married her yet?!?

Super awesome Gandini design. Not sure about a failure in the US. Sold for 10 years and moved quite a few. Then imported for several more years as Bertones.

Hi Kinja, what can we do about getting a downvote button?

The police cruiser looks aren’t helping. Body this like a 4 door Camaro, Chevy Charger, and it’s probably a hit.

David, Patrick, I was critical of some of the other buyer’s guides...this is awesome. A Jalop’s car and how to spec it like a Jalop. Bravo.

Electric and hybrid are improving faster than diesel.

Look at the HP of cars from that time. Smog era was tough.

In the market for an S2K. Honda was nowhere on my radar until I drove one grudgingly. What’s your vote for the last innovative Honda?
