It's not likely that the Commodore and Falcon will be the end of the series. More likely, they'll just start using the Camaro and Mustang, now that they're both (I think) headed for the Australian market.

I went to a GM driving day in PA, back in like 2004. Corvettes, GTOs, SSRs, CTSs, and autocross courses for maximum hoonage. They didn't give a damn what you did with the cars, as long as you were keeping them on the course.

Yeah, I love the looks of the Mach 1 scoop under load. I thought about putting one on my 2006 GT, and they're relatively simple to install, but the hood on the 2006 just isn't right. It's too flat, and no one really offers an aftermarket hood that has the step-ups like the previous Mach 1 had.

Cowl shake > gas mileage.

The funny thing about this vehicle is that Mercedes salespeople even make fun of it! When we were buying my wife's GLK350, a couple months ago, we were talking about the G-Wagen, and the sales guy was like - "Yeah, they're complete ridiculous. Mercedes builds a military truck, doesn't change it for thirty years,…

I beg to differ, at least on the previous generation...

My wife and I have been really happy leasing through Mercedes Benz. Her last car was a 2012 C300 Sport, and she had a fairly good lease rate on it, owing to her very good credit, and favorable lease terms (including interest rate and residual value). We traded that in, about five months early, on a 2014 GLK350, and…

As a Mets fan, I was just thinking this! We're no longer the laughing stock of the NL East! SMALL VICTORIES!

In South Carolina, the sales tax would be capped at $300. Of course, the yearly use tax...

There are dozens of these running around in South Jersey, where I used to live, and in the Charleston, SC area, where I live now, and I see a very good portion of those covered in mud, so someone is using them! SAVE THE RAPTORS!!!

The people I know and have met that drive Raptors live in expensive homes with many other fun vehicles - GT500s, GT-Rs, Vipers, Z06s, etc. It's not any more a bro truck than a regular F-150, it's just easier to MAKE it a bro truck.

Lower power, yes, but if it's potentially 600 pounds lighter? WHOO DOGGIE!

The engine family was originally called 'Twin Force,' but greenwashing caused them to change the name.

This is the 3.0L Yamaha V6, which came with the Gen I and II manual-equipped SHOs. The 3.2L Yamaha V6 came with the Gen II auto SHOs. The 3.4L Yamaha V8 came with the Gen III auto-only SHOs.

You're comparing a car from the early nineties to one built today. Got it. You're officially full of shit.

I think you're full of shit. I've driven and been driven in plenty of SHOs, of all generations (minus the current), and they don't just die at high RPM. That engine was designed to be amazing over 5,000 RPM.

Later cars were electronically limited, but the earlier cars probably just ran out of gear. The first and second generation bodies were pretty slippery, and fairly light, comparatively.

No, you didn't.

Yes, but was the 4-cylinder HSC ever fun?
