You know it’s bad when a few years into production, they had to badge it as the Citation II just to draw attention to the fact they changed it.

Real ones remember the SC had the 3rd door before the Ion
First, the guy behind the Manic sounds like a rejected draft for The Most Interesting Man in the World;
Yup, RAV4 is the 4th most common vehicle in my company’s fleet (Corolla is number 1), Toyota’s a big fleet seller.
As long as the Hummer EV remains a $100k oddity, it seems hard to justify raising my blood pressure over it. Yes, it’s probably a little concerning something that heavy drives as fast and smaller than it does (I drove the SUV on a short track earlier this summer), but also there’s something gleefully, brilliantly…
The one thing I remember having on my wall as a kid was a framed print of a bright yellow Boss 302 that I’d gotten as a present. I’m assuming a ~20 year old performance car today would more likely be something like the Eclipse from the first Fast and Furious rather than a New Edge Mustang.
For actual supercars, I’ve…
FWIW, the DS Ram seems to have roughly held its value against the equivalent DT Ram (at a few years old, the price spread is pretty close to what it was as new), which really suggests there’s a lot of people who recognize the old truck works just fine.
The stuff that’s just the logo is kind of rad, but I’m a little disappointed that the only vehicle they include is multiple kinds of period inappropriate, as a ‘70ish pickup* with modern drop and oversized wheels. Square bodies are beloved! GMT400's are beloved! There’s growing love for 3rd gen Camaros! Even C4…
I live across the border in Ontario, and my 10-yo Mazda2 is still plenty clean, no noticeable bubbling. For that matter, as much as second gen 3's are all over the place here, almost all of them still look good too. 1st gen 3's and Proteges could look like they’d been hauled out of the North Atlantic by their fifth…
If we killed the Chevy Malibu and it came back as the Pontiac Phoenix, I’d be okay with that.
It’s excellent for young people! It’s excellent for grandmas! It’s adequate!
This is all very lazy, just picking a few examples of how bad things were, pretty much across the board, and decreeing that it’s an example of how bad American cars were. Like, watch the review of the Sentra below - nearly as slow as the Chevette, bad handling like the LeBaron, but it’s a revolutionary FWD Japanese…
New Chevy Trax sells upwards of 250k units, and two or three other OEM’s announce modestly priced, appealing alternatives as a result?
Toronto's been doing it for years although I think it's typically been wine or liquor distributors rather than Molson-Coors (even though they've got the massive factory at 401 and 427).
I used to park myself directly to the right of someone who won’t get out of the passing lane and match every speed change (if I had the time and was feeling particularly ornery). They’ve frequently got a whole moral superiority thing going on, so being behind then doesn’t do as much as making them uncomfortable that…
Although, it's also clarified that Kevin's uncle (the one with the large Parisian apartment and the mid-restoration Manhattan townhouse) paid for trip, so he's probably beyond generational wealth to full-on wealth.
