why is it so damn ugly?

You don’t have kids do you?

What in god’s name are you talking about? No MB or BMW had nearly that kind of displacement during the malaise era. The closest thing possible would be the 450 SEL 6.9, which while smaller than the 8.2 referenced above, made almost 50% more hp and similar torque.

Lotus Europa Special. What do I win?

In case anybody actually still reads this, I just picked one of these up on easter (a 2014 model). The sticker on it was 60k, but I paid ~50k for it, and at that price, it is a steal of a deal.

One of the key elements of the fence is the picket. With none of those, this is just fucking odd looking.

Best piece of advice I ever got: the only thing more expensive than a good attorney is a bad one.

Fiat Multipla. It sucks. Only interesting thing about it is the front seats are 3 abreast as are the back seats.

Yeah because no racecars have traction control.

I would buy a 2005 just to not have Ford SYNC.

There are tons of examples from the 80s and 90s because all turbo cars were hilarious back then. If we’re talking about current cars, the engine in the CLA and GLA45 AMG is pretty damn hilarious in how it kicks in. It’s packing 26 lbs of boost from the factory and when it kicks in around 3k RPM, it changes everything…

Nah, his is obvious. Charlie Sheen has the best wig game in town.

How about the rear door of the FJ Cruiser? That one doesn’t even have an exterior handle or anything, it only opens from the inside.

Lol no. But can you imagine how insane a high strung 2 stroke miata would be to drive? Holy shit, it would be like riding a bucking bronco. I kinda want one now.

Yeah the customer is an idiot, but the salesman should have just dropped it and moved on. He helped escalate the situation on his end too. As you get older you start to realize how little time people like that are worth. And that you shouldn’t give idiots your cell phone number.

I just realized that the seats in this are identical to the AMG performance seats (recaro-made) that I have in my CLA45. It’s a $3k option on the CLA, but I’m glad I have them. They are so fucking perfect.

That’s about right, about 5% of the time. But the fact that it happens more than 0% of the time and that Ford can’t fix it with a software update points to a real problem with the underlying implementation.

It’s an explorer, it’s for driving kids around, it’s pretty useless or anything else anyways. And the technology isn’t the problem, Ford’s implementation is. We replaced it with a ML350 for her and a CLA 45 for me (well that was in replacement of my E550), so I’m gonna be just fine.

Right, but on our 3 other cars, it works as you would expect. So, this is a problem in the implementation on Ford’s part.

Give it time. On my wife’s now-gone 2014 Explorer it worked pretty well at first, but it seemed to somehow get worse as it got older. It has real problems with bluetooth - I guarantee you that you will find yourself turning off the bluetooth on your phone in order to stop the sync system from thinking you’re making a…
