Here, read this article by Autoblog. They make it clear that the S-AWC system is derived from the Evo. http://www.autoblog.com/2013/03/19/201…

Mitsubishi uses the SAWC system on the Outlander, which is the same as on the Evo X.

I hear. They were the perfect size and performed well with a fuel sipping 4 cylinder. I hate these leviathan land yachts that they call trucks today. Oh, and give me one with a manual transmission!

Yeah, having companies like Costco or Amazon would no doubt make this a possibility. Costco does have a program to buy new cars at a discount, hence why they usually have new cars in the entrances. If shipping, inspection and delivery could be taken care of, I see no reason why this could not work.

Yes, what you said is a major hurdle to overcome. I could imagine shipping centers that would receive incoming cars and prep them for sale. I have to admit that it would be so wonderful or order a car and not have to deal with any salespeople. I think I was reading that Amazon was talking a plan to be able to use them…

Unfortunately, that is not how it works. Cars that are delivered damaged are then accepted and repaired and the shipping company billed through their insurance company. If the entire dealership model is to be changed, then the manufacturers would need to have facilities to repair and service factory vehicles. That…

I tend to agree with you, but feel it would have to be something so unbelievable, that would cause North Korea to change. Since Kim Jung Un is a demigod, an untimely death would perhaps shock the nation enough to wake up and smell the Kim Chi.

A manual doesn’t fit an SRT Grand Cherokee. The A8 shifts with incredible speed and precison, really more like a good DSG. For the Hellcat however, which I have on order, a 6 speed fits perfectly as it is the consummate Pony/Muscle car.

I thought they had to buy back 500,000 Rams. http://www.usnews.com/news/business/…

Raphael, you are being too kind calling him a Dingus. I can think of other names that are more suitable, but this being a work friendly website, I will leave it at Dingus. It is a shame that only people with money can buy a car like the 918 because the owner of the busted 918 should never have been able to buy one in…

Well, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Not sure I can embrace a schnoz like that and I am no fan of crossovers, but more power to you if you like it. No flaming from me. One of the most fun cars I ever had was an Acura Integra and I still keep hoping that Acura can reinvent themselves and give us cars like they…

Yeah, to me, it sounds logical to what you said, but the dealers will someone cry foul just like they have with Tesla. It would be nice to get factory prices and cut out the middle man.

Ok, people should know that Hellcats are being delivered with shipping damage. If you bought direct from the factory, not sure how that would be handled other than FCA giving a voucher at a collision center of your choice. Not all dealers are about paint protection and rust proofing. Buying from an SRT/Viper certified…

If you are posting, then you are not adding any value to the thread. I am glad you recognized this.

You are cute when you are mad, but a little dumb. I am going to be magnanimous with you because I pity people who are mentally challenged. Does autism run in your family?

Well, a team in the NFL can have a so-so season and still qualify as a wild card. Part of me likes the fact that a person can earn his way into the Chase even if he missed more than half of the races. On the other hand, I would like to see the champion crowned by having the best season as is done in F1. But, I am not…

You speak the truth. Have a good, Cuban cigar on me!

Hey Captain dumbshit, your vapid comment belies your stupidity. Sheesh, people these days...

Minneapolis? That is my neighborhood. I gotta tell you a story and no tall tale. In 1970, I graduated from high school while still 17. I was car crazy and fanatical about Muscle Cars. A guy who lived a couple of blocks away from me had a 1970 Boss 429 Mustang, Grabber blue and all shagnasty. Anyway, one day, I heard…

There you go again. Taunting us with hot women who shall forever be forbidden fruit and who exist only on the internet. Life is cruel...
