I’ve never owned one, but a buddy of mine had one growing up. It is one of the easiest cars to throw around that I’ve ever driven. The steering/handling/engine balance is superb, but you’ve gotta really wring it out to catch up to the Prius that jumped you off the line.  It’s a torqueless wonder. I think the appeal of

Mazda has been doing this for a few years on the CX-9 and recently on the 6.  It looks good there.  On a BMW, however, the last thing I’d want to highlight is the kidney grille.  

This is the obvious answer.

Ooof, is that thing gorgeous.  My goodness. 

There’s no denying that this is a cool car.  Awesome, even.  But no matter how hard I try, or how much off-road tech is baked into it, I still can’t figure out why this thing costs $90k. 

The real question is why the hell this bat wanted to go to Newark. 

Well that was....dark.  Lord have mercy.  I agree that the Broncos are going to suck, but don’t rag on Denver like that.  No one is waking up in the morning and saying “I really want to move to Sacramento”.  Denver is one of FIVE cities with 5 major sports played within the downtown area.  It’s a fantastic sports

Jags don’t sell well because of perceived reliability, based on history, as well as simply being much smaller.  They’re nice, but BMW/Audi/Merc/Lexus are the top dogs here. 

Nissan desperately needs to replace the Sentra, which may be one of the saddest cars sold today.  They also need to develop a small, turbo I4 and drop it in there, like Honda did with the Civic.  The Maxima needs a redo as well, with a TT V6 option.  Infiniti also needs a small, sporty car to compete with the 3Series

Came here to post a Brat comment, Jason beat me to it.

Still looks like something I’d see in Soviet russia.  

Unpopular opinion - I love the styling, especially the side profile. Looks like a 3 series but with a more aggressive twist.

Idk.  I work at a dealership - admitting that you purposefully increased customer dissatisfaction is about as honest as you can be.  That’s the last thing any dealership wants to do.  Manufacturers shut down dealerships that aren’t meeting their customer service standards; if satisfaction is low, nobody bonuses. 

While the materials look splendid, and I’m sure the tech is top-notch, BMW did a better job designing the new interior of the X7.  This one has too much going on, and that steering wheel looks like it came out of a 2010 C300.  Also, the downward sloping taillights and the chrome piece attaching them at the back are

I remember a long time ago, in my early college years (2009 ish), my dad, who had realized my interest in automobiles, called me and said “you should check out the website Jalopnik”.

Umm....except for the 4Runner, which just had its best sales year in its 35 year history.

I always liked the look of the MKZ, post facelift.  There’s something maybe a tiny bit Bentley about the front end.  I rented one once and got comments from relatives about “Uncle Jon’s sweet rental car”.  And having driven a few Fusion turbos, it probably drives pretty darn well, too. 

How about a Pontiac G8 GXP? Ticks the ‘fast’ box, but I’m not sure about reliability. And the mileage is horrendous. But man, is it cool, and those seats look super comfy.

My ex also tries to eat me every time I bump into her

GM this, GM that, blah blah blah, whine, whine, whine.  C’mon, people - these cars (especially the rear end of that CT4) look GOOD.
