My car is EPA rated 14 city 19 highway. It also has nearly 30 times the horsepower of the Model T (580 vs 20). It also has a top speed that is 4 times higher (180 mph vs 45 mph). On a more practical note, it can start itself with just the turn of a key, even in cold weather. It adjusts its own timing and other

It also sounds like China is going the European route of taxing displacement. This makes it very advantageous to downsize and turbocharge to keep a power level that customers are accustomed to while simultaneously meeting the demands of the bureaucrats.

Do a search. They have been arriving at dealerships for a bit over a month now. I guess you are correct about the badge snobbery of BMW owners not even considering a Camaro as a car.

Have you actually taken an objective look at the 2016 Camaro?

The car in the pictures is a V6 model. It would have been somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 hp.

The loss of visibility comes from the mist/spray behind the cars not the rain.

I feel like I hit the SUV boom pretty well. I bought a 2003 Ford Explorer V8 in the winter of 2008, just a few months removed from gas first hitting a national average of $4/gallon. It had 55k miles on it, and I paid $8500 for it. I just sold it this past fall for $5800 with 140k miles on it. That means I paid a net

The issue with DRLs in rain is that you have no taillights on. I don't know how many times I didn't notice the gray/black car in front of me until I am close because they didn't have any taillights on, but they were running their DRLs...

That’s a three hundred and fifty cubic inch pushrod

With that market captured, Tesla has made a name for itself. When someone says Tesla, your first thought is high tech, fast, and environmentally. Ford or GM could make a superior car in every facet to the Model S or Model X with a Lincoln or Cadillac badge, but it will never be as popular. What is your first

I was always a fan of the LT5.

Or just take the weight off yourself?

I have not used a screen protector since switching to smartphones in 2011. They aren't nearly as required as they used to be back in the day when screens would scratch if you looked at them wrong.

$20k in 2000 is equivalent to $27.6k in 2015. It’s not 12 grand worth of inflation, but it isn’t far off the price of a work truck today.

That wouldn't make the 'vette any cheaper. That engine, on paper, is very similar to the LT1 in both torque and horsepower. Given the DOHC arrangement and additional turbo plumbing it could end up costing more. I wonder if it will even fit due to height restrictions.

I never implied that. I only implied that even if the laws specifically grandfathered in classic cars there will be people who will likely vandalize these cars.

Did you not see the article about the notes being left on VW TDI cars? Even if they are legal you will have people who will take it upon themselves to be vigilantes.

I thought I had it bad. I’m about 6’3” with a 34” inseam. I can fit in my Camaro only because I got one without a sunroof. If I sit up strait in a 4th gen I can touch the t-top glass.
