A K series would be fun but I’d probably want to use something from a SRT-4 just to keep it in the family.

Lots of love for CarPlay/Android Auto, heated seats and steering wheels, rain sensing wipers. I get that. I’m going to be very low-tech here.

Gonna be a shame if they go under. Air on the road looks fantastic. Definitely better than any other luxury EV. 

I prefer my current plan of living places where it doesn’t snow. I’ve been a big fan since that happened. 

“ It’s got to be embarrassing for the likes of Pirelli and Goodyear to see their winter tires outperformed by a set of all-seasons.”

Not a free pass to the grid. She was paid to be there by Alfa. Therefore, if Alfa said “no interview”, then no interview.

She “owes” Brundle, the fans, etc., absolutely NOTHING. Alfa gave her the pass, so there might be an argument that she owes Alfa. Alfa told Brundle no.

I honestly don’t understand her popularity. There are other artists I don’t like, but I can at least understand to some degree why people do like them. With her, I don’t get it.

About 20 years ago I actually had a sales person have me hold off taking the car home for a day to be absolutely sure the financing would go through. He said he absolutely hated having to call someone and tell them they needed to bring the car back in and preferred to wait a day or two to make sure all is well.

I personally would find it difficult to spend $20k premium on the exact same TNGA Camry platform underpinning just about every FWD Lexus model, but to each their own. On the flipside, I’d easily go for Mazda’s RWD ‘luxury’ models simply by virtue of them offering something unique drivetrain-wise. I guess it’s all YMMV

Well, now I kind of want to go.

With all of their trouble, why would anyone want to buy a car from them? In CA at least I don’t know how a dealer can get into more trouble than failing to send the info to the DMV so they can send a title.

Well, #2 is failing to send in the sales tax collected from the customer.

China is running full-on interference for its manufacturers on multiple fronts (cheap labor in ways that will simply not fly in any real democracy; IP piracy as state policy over decades; all kinds of market manipulation and strategic subsidies; etc.) I’m far from a China-scapegoating culture warrior, but it would…

I tend to agree that having giant screens with all kinds of information on them is a bad idea that’s going to get regulated out of existence, but the big problem is not being able to adjust basic controls by touch. This is the interior on my Mustang. See the seat heater buttons on both sides, with the “heat” button…

Let’s be real here. TRX and Raptor are all about dick waving.

Without a doubt, the Chevy SS. Never marketed, hidden away from the public, and they couldn’t even be bothered to give it a real name. The only reason we got it stateside was so GM could deliver on its promise to the Aussies to export a certain amount.

The final generation Saab 9-5.

Meh, my work forces me to ride in “baggage class” at the back of the plane. Jokes on them. First off, the lack of leg room doesn’t hurt me. Shoot, my knees don’t touch the seat in front of me on a puddle jumper. Secondly, I can relax and sleep-fart the entire trip and people will think the smells and sounds are coming…

“Hey! I resemble that comment.”

If you think a turbo is dull, you aren’t driving the right turbo.
