How does power delivery compare across the range? I just can’t justify throwing this much money at a 4 cylinder engine with this little power (my wife and I looked at a base Macan and the test drive was underwhelming)…it was fast-ish in the GTI i used to own, but I can’t imagine that same engine pulling an SUV. Does…

After driving it around all day I have to say that this thing is a pain in the ass at a drive thru window.

Congrats! I also race but I'm nowhere near that good, mostly just crits and TTs, solidly middle of the pack. Wonderful story, as well. 

I hated sitting in the traffic to school as a kid, and then at the end of the day waiting for him to pick me up..... my father said to me “you can ride your bike to school if you dont want to sit here and wait.” seemed like a whole lot of extra work at the time, but after riding to and from school a few times, I found…

They’re great for their intended purpose for sure, and likely much better than the SUVs that are the norm here. I’d go with one of I were visiting those places. 

I went to private school growing up (on a scholarship, I wasn’t exactly rich), and I was a little embarrassed to be dropped off at school in my dad’s base, workman’s truck. He could tell that I was a little self conscious when everyone else was being dropped off in Volvos or Mercedes wagons, so one night he smiled at…

That was my first thought. Sounds like one of these special editions will be easier to get a hold of than a regular one at MSRP

It’s crazy that the Lexus version looks more restrained even with the predator grill. 

It is certainly a look. 

The Alphard looks like it was styled by Gillette.  

Dear Toyota,

Instead of “only driven to church on Sundays” will it be “never used to transport children or plywood"?

Controversial take: You need a different dog. I suggest this one.

Thats roughly what dealerships are charging for 2022 Siennas right now......I just dropped way more than I’d like to admit on a 2022 Sienna that hasn’t even been built yet because you can’t find them anywhere.  Our 2011 Grand Caravan is due to have its transmission explode any day now (245xxx miles) and the Sienna is…

The Sienna is the best looking minivan on the market today. *flame suit on*

This person is either stupid or doesn't actually want to sell it. 

In 5 years on BaT...

Yup. $20k more than the average selling price on BaT, and $5k more than a 2007 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG wagon has ever sold for on BaT.

Just a few weeks ago a 2007 example was bid up to only $34k on BaT. A similar price seems to get you a 2014 or 2015 model on the site. This is grossly overpriced for probably the worst looking MB hot wagon.
