Tonight at 5: a bunch of people who can’t afford expensive car’s lament about the prices of expensive cars.

Agree. But 15% is ALOT considering the average transaction price on a new car is 45k right now. Also once demand cools down rebates will go up which will drive used car prices down. Obviously it will likely never go back to where it was because of the insane inflation we’re seeing.

Nice. Only half a million orders to produce before they can start making these bad boys. Should start seeing them on the road around 2030.

A Corolla hatchback is 26K?!? The fuck is going on.

The average sale price of a new car is 45K.

No, it isn’t. 25% APR is criminal, 10% is pretty good if you’ve got bad credit. 

“Interest rates suck for people with bad credit”. As they should. If you have bad credit, maybe don’t buy a brand new car. Maybe don’t have bad credit?

I feel for anyone who needs to buy a new car right now. You’re going to get fleeced, there’s no way around it.

Can you even buy something worth buying for 5k these days? The Element is probably the best choice out of all those.

3rd gear: “Boeing and regulators have determined that the new titanium issue doesn’t pose an urgent safety risk to planes currently flying...”.

Reducing emissions in the cars themselves isn’t the point. The point is to be pushing the technological envelope towards something that could eventually be used in road cars to reduce emissions.

If you shrink your browser horizontally the slideshow turns into a normal vertical list.

It’s a mid cycle refresh, you’re not going to see big powertrain changes. Maybe it will get a transmission with more gears to help fuel economy. More than likely just some restyled sheet metal and interior tweaks.

2005 called and wants their bad take back. 

You sir, need a TT-RS. You can’t get one new for 60k, but you can get a very gently used one. 400 HP, 5 cylinders, what’s not to love.

The tire tracks would suggest it was under power in the grass at least (the grass would be laying the other direction if they were braking). Software glitch maybe?

Can’t tell where they saved money? That infotainment screen looks straight out of 2010. 181 HP for 7 people? LOL.

It looks better in two colors: dark gray and black. Reason? You can’t see the CUV-esque plastic cladding.

I really want a Bronco, but don’t feel like dealing with ordering one and waiting who knows how long. I made that mistake with my Focus RS. I will patiently wait for them to fix their shit and hope my GLI doesn’t explode in the meantime.

Good. Maybe Papa John’s will finally crack the code on cutting all the way through my damn crust.
