It’s almost a selling point honestly. They somehow make this work, but the Lexus RX350L can’t pull this off.

16 Year old me: Mini-Van. Hands down. It FOR SURE isn’t your car, and makes you look old and weird.
Before the CarChippocalypse, the Turbo Carbon AWD was $34-35k. JUST to get into the Turbo is $37k now? Sheesh, Mazda. I agree that you should move upmarket but do it with the CX-50 or one of the new one CUVs. Someone else said it, but I think the top RAV4 might be a better buy than this, and I’m certain CX-5 is more…
That’s definitely not a bad thing. Who doesn’t want to look like a old school Japanese mafia boss, on their way to the supermarket?
Admitted, not EVERY single Genesis design is my favorite, but this looks wildly better than 7 Series, and more interesting than the S-Class. I think the best looking of the “big boys” is the LS500 and the A8, because they chose a direction (either wild new styling or the best “clean” styling). BMW doesn’t know what it…
Full disclosure: My wife and I bought a used one of these this year. I get it. Different strokes for different folks. However, I don’t understand how it feels “old”. Not every car or customer wants, or even needs, eighteen 12-inch touch screens that control every function in the car and can’t be circumvented, nor…
Excellent. This all goes according to my plan to buy one of these at a deep discount in a couple years. These were almost in the 30s before the chipshortagepocalpyse came to town.
You get an All-Star for this ...
The 2000 Toyota Corolla
This is obligatory but necessary as these literally will survive the Nuclear-Zombie-Virus-Thanos Apocalypse. I’m pretty sure they can run on soda, and probably get a HP boost from using McDonald’s Sprite. I’m not sure they even need oil, because every single one looks like it hasn’t had a tune…
If I ever get the opportunity to own one, a LC500 would never leave my possession. I’m willing to take one of the lesser “F” models (GS-F, RC-F, etc) if my piggy bank never reaches this level but my Lord, these things look stunning in pictures AND on the road. It’s drivable art.
We bought a used one for this exact reason. Fun (enough) for commuting, hitting a furniture store, going on roadtrips, i.e. life activities. It’s much nicer to drive than just about every other vehicle it reasonably competes with (I don’t think the base, non-x-drive X30i is $5-7k better than a properly equipped…
Sheesh, yea, I was looking for decent 6th gens under 100K miles. These new ones are nutty. I feel you.
If its on the Type-R architecture, it’s a win. Honestly, I see a base model being an upmarket Si, and the Type-S being the Type-R cousin....but I kind of want a Integra Type-R with SH-AWD. Just throw everything at it except for the Sport-Hybrid tech and see what happens.
Honestly, I think about it a lot more now. We just moved into a house, with two-car garage space, and it’s my first chance to own something “fun” to put around in that I can mess with in said garage (My wife said I could dammit!). However, we only JUST beat the Car Price Apocalypse by a couple of weeks on the family…
Alright Chevy, it’s time to build that Manta Ray or Devil Ray mini-corvette that was supposedly rumored. Literally, shrink a c7 and put both of these motor in it and make it optional convertible. Place it square between the Supra and the Miata and see what happens.
Wells Fargo tried something close to this with me. My payment was $250/month. I paid anywhere from $300-$400/month to get it paid off earlier. Towards the end, when no interest should have been applied, I kept noticing that my full payment wasn’t being subtracted from the remaining total (i.e. $2,000 remaining balance…
I know GMC has the Denali, but we have some really good Peak names in the US. The Jeep Foraker, Jeep Blackburn or Jeep Rainier sound cool, then you could name the special editions after Parks. So, The Jeep Rainier -Redwood Edition sounds pretty dope.
Came here for this
This one is easy. Bring back/into the US the Eunos brand.
Mazda wants to move upmarket, and be considered in the premium/low-tier luxury segment that Acura, Volvo, and Lincoln currently sit. Here is there chance. They have an inline-6 coming soon, so keep putting that 2.5 Turbo motor in the top trim of everything they…
GM has a really good opportunity here. All the other brands are abandoning the stick shift tochase lap times, because old rich people can’t be bothered. Young, nuvo-riche or at least upwardly mobile people are the class of buyer you have to get NOW. If you indoctrinate yourself to 18-34 year olds as the “fun brand” by…
